Test drove a G35c today...

Damn, I loved the way theu looked, and now I am hooked. This is the NICEST Jap car I have ever driven. I have driven a IS300 a GS430 and a LS430, and a Supra, and a few Acruas and other misc stuff, never been or driven a NSx, but damn this was one nice fun to drive car... The salesman said they only made 12K this year and 10% (1,200) have sticks! Damn, that is a small portion. He said I could order one with a stick if I wanted. Not sure if I want the payment yet, he said it would be in the 550-600 range, so the payment is very reasonable for such a tight ass car. Drop it about 4 inches on some 18 or 19" Volks and limo the glass, and put my 4,000 watt stereo in it, and it might be a cool ass little car.

Damn dog, you took Need for Speed: Underground a little too seriously. 4 inches on a G is laughable seeing as how it only rides 6.3 inches above the ground in stock form.

Also, what's the for? Whatchu you agreeing with? What you yourself stated?

In any case, the G is a tight car no doubt, and depending on your area & exclusivity, I think it could be made even better. Good luck if you do decide to get it.

Post some pics when you get it, they are such bad ass cars...

LOL at some of you guys, you don't know shit about cars do you? If I lower it four inches, and put a 19 on it with a large tire, it will raise the overall diameter of the wheel/tire and raise the car back up 1-2 inches, depending on what tire I go with... so lowering it four and raising it back up 1-2, will have it on the GROUND, with the wheel lips in the fender... Yes, That is what I am planning, you obviously don't understand my screen name. My Integra was about 2-3 inches off the ground and had the rear wheel lip in the fender and front tires tucked.

listen up noob, here's a clue for ya.

my old 18's are the same EXACT diameter of my 19's. when you go with a larger rim you get less tire width which makes up for the rim size difference. If you fuck with the wheel diameter on g35 your VDC/TCS will be BROKEN. Not to mention you'd be rubbing like a motherfucker with a 4 inch drop even if your fenders were rolled.

you obviously dont know shit about the G so maybe you should STFU.

Someone's getting owned in the thread.

G's are very hot cars, they’re just a bit too small on the inside for my tastes.

That would weigh, ohh, 500lbs. IN addition to the 4 inch drop. The car would not be driveable.

Massive heavy stereo, huge wheels and super low drop for added rubbing and diminished handling,= all show & no go.

Don't particularly care too much for the front of the G, but overall I like the coupe, shorter than my CL, RWD, and more HP.

Yea, my stereo does sound like ass, its all old school P/G shit, I wish I could be cool and afford some Rockford Fosgate stuff, those amps are so bad ass!

Even that's not necessary, you'll destroy the fucking back window. You're probably the kind of person who is like bass = great. Do you even change the other speakers? What kind of ohms are you running?

Oh no, watch out guys! It's a misguided Japanese-car-related attack on our collective ego! Cause you really see that many riced out CLs around. Maybe he forgot that the CL is a (almost always) very tastefully modded luxo sport coupe? Oh, wait, his idea of a luxury sport coupe is right in his sig:
