i fell in love , now what ?

hello everyone .

k
so im car shopping , i was thinking a-4 , but then i saw this red thing - 04 mt6 g35 coupe .

so , a quick photocopy of my licence , and im off the the nj gsp . its saturday and its early . So , i pop off 5th gear , im thinkin maybe a bit twitchy - but planted , i look down i have 140 mph indicated and maybe 3 k left on the tach .- and it has a back seat , did i mention red ?

problem : in my opinion , the car is "rough" , it felt like a million big gears , it shifted perfect , but buzzy ? ---i currently drive a saab aero and though that was rough . - rough like an old trans am 4 spd , rough like a 3 cyl motorcycle. ( spped triple is the perfect discription )

how buzzy is this thing? - everything else is good , clutch feels ok . no chatter.
maybe like a small john deer tractor , type buzzy
no shaking , no rattle ,just buzzy - 122k miles , there asking 9 grand for it .
my issues : buzzy
: smell of gas in oil
: antifreeze MAY have had the odor of stop leak , but no signs of it.
: a clunk or two on down shifts - ( reminicent of a busted motor mount in an old camaro )

its apparent , if this car isnt the one , i still have to have one .
how much for one in "decent" shape ? , i could go to 20 grand , for the right one.
are they all buzzy ? - im not complaining , i like the feel , im concerned if the one that i drove , may have had a some issue i wasnt aware of ? --the car may very well feel like this , it seems light , plenty of punch .

what do i do ?

If your love has no boundaries (price, model, color, year) then go grab it.

If that was a temporary love and now you're feeling like h0lly sh!tt (price is too high, noisy, etc etc.) then just dump it and move on. You can always fall in love again.

Find an 06-07 to test drive. The 37's have more power but are kind of numb feeling compared to the 35's

37 is really numb. It's too refined now... beautiful interior and exterior but it just feels blah!
