Wheels are in motion

Things are finally falling into place. Put down my deposit...driving to Lokey either tomorrow or Friday! Thanks Neffster, John, Mark, Lokey & FGC! . Just hoping I can keep down the excitement when I drive back! Don't want to ruin the ride even before it gets home. What would be the proper "cruising" speed? I know I'm going to want to "fly" back!

well 2 things about "break-in" some will say dont get over 4k RPMs and i think thats crap...2nd is dont stay at a constant RPM which is what i believe, you can do both in a daily drive but on highway its hard...i would just make sure u downshift every once in a while and get the RPMs moving

Am I missing anyone? Maybe it's time to start talking to Lokey about the "other prizes" for the raffle.

I just got off the phone with Mark. The guys at Lokey are truly doing their best to make the purchasing process as easy and smooth as possible

I just so can't wait to get my G from them.. like you haven't heard me say it before

When are you expecting to be buying another Coupe? You should get it in a few weeks and drive it home!

It's done! I am now a new owner of a 2005/Laser Red/Premium PKg/ G35 Coupe! Thanks Lokey! Thanks John! Thanks Neffster! And special thanks goes out to Mark Sexton! Can you believe it took me almost 4 hours to get to Clearwater from Orlando?!! I left here around 4:00 p.m. and eventually got to Lokey around 8:00 p.m. I give a special thanks to Mark because even though Lokey closed @ 7:00, he stayed around (even though he had some personal things to take care of) and waited for me. Lokey was literally empty (w/ the exception of the cleaning lady and the security guard) when I got there. I can't thank him enough for doing this for me. A++++ for everyone and everything!
