2003-04 or 2006-07 G35 coupe

I had an 04 g35 coupe 6mt and was an incredible car but it was stolen and totaled, so now I'm looking for another one to buy but I am trying to decide to get an 03-04 g35 or and 06-07. Anyone know which is better? I know the 06-07 has nicer features and the rev-up but is it all worth it?

go for an 05 6mt revup which has the a little bit of both.

The tail lights/headlights, bumpers, skirts and spoiler are the same as the 03-04 but the interior is same as the 06-07 whereas the engine has 300 horses.. just keep an eye on the oil level. After all, it is a sports car and most sports cars do need to be maintained more than the others.

But it has less TQ!

TQ is much more important than HP,

TQ and HP are both important. On paper yes, non-revups have more TQ, but it's barely noticeable on the ground at low rpms.

I'm joking. The way HP was rated changed in 05 for the whole automotive industry so there's no way to actually compare the numbers. Bottom line tho is that the 0-60 and 1/4mi times never changed for the coupe thru all production years, so really there are no noticeable changes.

Not even considering an 05? Sad.

Brembos are not better than new brakes, but they do look better.

Track times show Revup is not faster than the non revup with equal drivers/mods.

Interior is better 05 and up.

06-07 headlights and taillights are better, but can be swapped.

Wings can be swapped/deleted/etc.

I'd get the one with low miles, in great condition, is not burning oil, and at the best price for that year.

Personally, for me at this point the only year i'd consider is 2007 just due to the age of the cars in question. If i wanted that body style coupe, i'd get the newest example.

I'd find the cleanest, low-mileage example of an '07 that I could afford and drive that.
