PICS of my G35 6MT Coupe!!!!

Hey Guys:

Well, I picked her up yesterday. The car was shipped with the Aero kit which I didn't order, so I only paid 200 bucks for it, I got Lojack at cost (300 bucks!!!) and free Rim locks. I also bought Gap insurance and the Rim/Tire protection plan for 475 bucks. Get this....I hit a pothole and blow a tire or bend a rim...REPLACED for free at Infiniti for FIVE years!!! There is NO limit to this. I blew 2 of my tires on my CLS and I won't go through that again. If I blow one tire or bend one rim, this pays for itself....can't beat it!!! I paid 37,550 out the door which includes the Lojack and Aero Kit. Here's some pics...sorry my shitty camera isn't better!!!

THE CAR IS FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!

As for the CL, it's perfectly legal to collect the property damage and pay the car off....this insurance company of the drunk who hit me knows that the Body Shop bought my CLS and that I'm using the money to be made whole on my loan from American Honda Finance. WOO-HOOOOOO

Nice..... looks to me like your brand new, stock G sits lower than your CL-S (even with the lowering springs!!)

The more I see those G coupes, the more I think I'm gonna get one.....

Yes, I've driven one. I love the CL, but I just can't justify buying a DC'd car. I'll always love CL's, but this car really feels like a completely different thing to me....RWD rocks!!!

To be honest? No....I really like the way the car rides and handles stock. The rims are SWEET, and the brakes are brembos, so there isn't much else I'd change. I do, however, have an order in on Bridgestone Blizzaks and 17" rims for the winter....I think that will be about it, other than a K&N Drop-in when the time comes.

Actually, Tom...I never lowered my CL...that was SUV height.

The G does sit VERY low with a nice gap with the stock 18's...I have no plans to change any suspension components.

And if you do get a G, get the NAV...IT IS SPECTACULAR!!!!

Oh, I thought you had springs on the CL-S..... especially since you had rims.

But anyway, how does the Acura Navi compare to the Infiniti Navi? What do you like better about each? I've only had very limited experiences with the Infiniti Navi....

I have the same system on my Z. The infiniti/Z navi is very user friendly, nice birdseye view. The screen is alot bigger then the old CL/TL. The things I dont like about the GPS system is that it is NOT touch screen and you cant change routes while driving....I used to do that all the time, probably a feature in most new navi systems.... Anyways, other then those 2 things, the navi is great.

Infiniti Nav has more detail, better views...but I agree that no touch screen sucks ass. I didn't have Nav in my CL, but I've used the Acura Nav before in friend's cars. I was afraid to get springs in MA as it's pothole world here...that's why I bought the rim and tire protection on the G.

:P Of course it works, Jesal!!! And it saves me a chunk of change on my comprehensive insurance. They locate your car in hours if it's stolen.

Very nice... just the car I had a deposit for last October... but they wanted much more money for it... hence I bought the CL-S.

Honestly, if I had a choice now, it would be the G35C-6MT Although it would be turbocharged now!!!

The driver's seat has more adjustments and a center hump type of deal in the middle of the ass for support...so I guess you could say yes.

Congrats!! Very sweet car. You'll definitely love it

I feel the same way about mods for my Z. The only thing I have bought so far is the K&N drop-in filter. The cars come pretty nicely equipped from the factory it's not really necessary.

Good luck!

I was just about to ask the same thing... the front part of the driver seat has two pleats... the front part of the passenger seat has none... That seems strange.

All in all tho, nice ride
