dont get a G35,.. or go TT with a full suspension setup and better tires than your friend has.

In the end for the money you are better off just getting an e46 like your friend.

Guy is barely 18. I doubt he can afford to do a TT job on the G. Also, even with a TT, the G will probably still lose. G isn't made for racing. Youtube G35 Twin Turbo and see how many wins the G actually has. Supercharge G is even worse. Unless you get the Vortech Supercharger. The Stillen supercharger sounds like a dying cat.. "wahhh wahh"..

Youtube it. Its a black supercharge G. Horrible.. It also lost to the STI..

You're buying a G for 32k plus tax and everything = 36k+

Twin Turbo at the very minimum = 10k+

46k.... Good luck at 18 years of age..

Something tells me this guy isn't exactly paying out of his pocket for the car. I may be wrong though and if that's the case I apologize!!

If i had a G35 at 18 honestly i would have probably hurt myself and I know I couldnt have payed for it, not that I am an old man now at 23 but really, the G is one of the sexyest cars on the road and its quick and handles well while doing it but it just isnt a track beast (and thats something I personally have had to come to terms with).
If your looking for a really fast car to keep up and maybe beat your buddies M3 then look for an M3, but unless your the protege of "philippe massa" and your friend is a sh!tty a$$ driving kid with a bimmer (he might be, no offence) your G is just not going to stack up.
Might look amazing while losing but it will almost certianly lose.

That's the same thing I was thinking.

Young Men vs Fast Cars........!

Autoweek mag has access to driving schools that will teach you how to drive
in all situations. Having respect for the cars we drive just might save your
life....G35 or M3!

HUHHHH....??? Dude, most the g's on youtube aren't heavily modded or are running low boost. There are many on here that can spank big time. The M3 is an amazing car, but it's not the end all and be all. I almost bought an AC schnitzer M3 but after driving it I have to say a properly setup G can hold it's own against an M3.

Also when I was 15-19 I had a 510hp supercharged foxbody, sold that...bought a NEW 2005 durango and 2000 explorer at the same time, supercharged the durango after 2 months, had the interior redone with suede and leather and had 22's on it. Sold the durango and bought a S10, swapped in a ls2 and supercharged it and chopped the roof and had 8 sub system installed in the bed along with bench seats, sold that and bought a 2002 celica gt-s, built the motor, turboed it then I sold the celica and bought my 2003 G35 which I just got done putting my new suspension in. I just bought a used VQ and I am stroking that to 4.2L and TT it and I'm gonna drop that in my G. I paid for everything myself...I don't come from a wealthy family.

Anything is possible at a young age. I'm almost 20 now and it's all about how much you wanna work for what you want. I work and go to school full time and still do everything I wanna do.

LOL are you fvcking stupid? You need to stop posting like you know anything. TT G's can get up to 400 whp on a stock engine, which is 100+whp more than the e46. G's weigh what, 350 lbs less than the M3? So how is a heavier vehicle with 100+whp less and less torque going to win?? Man go to the FI forum and post that I want to see what owners of actual TT G's say to that.
