So I Got It!!

Decided to trade in my S2000 and get something slightly more practical. It's a 2009 with 5500 miles! Absolutely pristine condition, not a single scratch.

I got them down to $38500. Brand new MSRP was $53,000. It has the following options:

Premium Package
M Sport Package
Navigation
Logic7 Sound System
Comfort Access
Park Distance Control
iPod/USB Adapter
Satellite Radio

The only thing missing that would've been nice is the cold weather package. It had been sitting on the lot for 2.5 months. Guess they really wanted to get rid of it.

We're getting older on average. Incomes are rising and quite frankly the Japanese still don't have a real 3 series competitor.

You are right about getting older but my income isn't going up. Where do you work?

I think the G37 is a good competitor to the 3 series....

The G37S is pretty nice but the 335 feels more agile. Plus the low-end torque is great.

The G has a great exhaust note though.

Very nice and congrats!

FAIL for thread title... it should have read something like 'Giant sinkhole ate my car, so I....'

Ok, I'm jealous... gotta knock you on something. Enjoy

It's the best the Japanese have but it still needs some improvement IMO. Infiniti also needs to improve their dealerships (and employees) I'm so far unimpressed. They could learn a lot from Lexus.

Thanks guys! Yes, it's the twin turbo model. I already got a nasty bug splatter on the front bumper.

I have to say thats an interesting interior color combo for a white exterior. I'd have to see it in person for final judgment.

I love the interior color combination. I think it looks so much better than the usual colors.

Looks amazing in person!

Yeah. That pedal is aluminum (I think) underneath that blue tape. It should just peel right off.

You're right! Good eye, I would've never caught that.
