66486 miles.

It's quite the car, everything feels nice and tight.

Clean title, carfax has lots of service on record, no accidents. Paint is good, one like 1/4"x1/4" paint chip on the bumper (primer exposed), but it'll deal with that and still have made a good deal.

Touch up paint does amazing things. Congrats on the purchase and try not to speed too much!

Too big to touch up, I'll get it professionally done.

It's my absolute favourite colour too! That sweet fire apple red.

I can't speed, it's on winter rubber right now, tires just spin if I try to rev it. I'll get pictures up for you guys soon gonna get some 20" work emotion rims and some nitto's this summer.

I wish I had the brembo's and the 2003 spoiler. The 2006+ spoiler is no fun.

I'll just buy some stop-tech's. Had them on my Audi.

The brakes on this 07 feel as tight as the brakes on the 03 Brembo I drove.

I absolutely hate the clutch pedal on this car, im used to the weirdly long and soft pedal on my Audi.

The interior on the 07 is WAAAAY nicer then the 03, I love it.

Trust me, the 03 has CLEAR advantages over the 07. And vice versa.

Both cars are equally awesome.

I'm tempted to find a dead 03 and harvest the brembo's for my 07.

Do you track your car a lot (road course, autoX)? The upgraded brakes on the 06+ are not very different from the Brembos when it comes to performance. Just get yourself some good pads and you'll be fine.

The brakes are pretty much the same, it's the eye catching color scheme lol.

No I don't at all, the track in my city was closed.

Yeah the color scheme is what I'm after, so I'll get some red stop-tech's to match my red car

I'm also going to plasti-dip my rims, emblems and grill in black. Had dipped rims on my Audi, looked incredible!

With my G I'm all about looks. The 307hp HR preforms to my expectations (of coarse it's way slower then my 500hp Audi, but it's sexy as hell).

You know your coupe doesn't have the HR engine right? They only put the HR motors in the 07 and 08 G35 sedans. You have the*VQ35DE*Rev-up engine.*

Ahhh.

Why do I only have single intake rather then dual intake/TB? I noticed some 07's have it, some don't.
