Thats why I said he should take it to GTM....$250 and they will check the entire car out...and I am sure if there is a problem ...they will find it

The dealer knows what the accelleration is like? That's because just about every salesman and porter has ran the **** out of it, not to mention if anyone has wanted a test drive (trust me, I watched it all the time at the dealer I worked at- trade-in modded cars went through HELL with no maintance at all while they sat on the lot).

I also get a little weery when they can't even spell "INFINITI" correctly. The car has been out since '03, there is no excuse as to why people can't spell it right (I forgive them if they did it before the G came out... no one knew what Infiniti was back then).

Well this dealer seems to be doing better then that, the G35 is getting repairs done right now to the rack n pinion. And the dealer doesn't let anyone just go for a test drive, he said I would have to pass a credit check first or show that I could buy the car cash.(I know this doesn't mean that no one has driven it hard but it has to have helped a bit)
Thanks to everyones help I will keep you updated and anymore of your help is still welcome.

I am not going to get into a RA vs GTM debate....because then you will ask me to prove that a Porsche is better than a Pinto.... Scott being the Pinto Been there proven that. And i take it Sam blew up your motor on the dyno.

So what if GTM is 2 hours away Forged Performance is 12 hours away from me..and thats who works on my car...

OP... Check out GTM over at www.my350z.com ....that speaks for itself...then check out RA's rep..

Never let a dealer run your credit just to take a test drive...please dont do that. Thats a way for them to corner you into buying the car...because they know it lowers your score everytime they run it. I test drive high end cars all the time with out haveing to do that.....even get to keep the car over night....copy of drivers license and insurance is all you have to give them

SDGeneral- My personal car is there at GTM and I have had no issues with them for 2 years. Like you said in your post don't listen to anyone on here unless they have their car there.....well I do and I think it's a great idea to have them check it out if it only costs 250ish.

I have not let them run my score, nor was I planning on letting them for this reason. But I still think him saying that to the general public will have stopped many ppl going for a joy ride

You make so many accusations, and never have any proof. Are you dating Scott@RA or something?

OP: Bring the car by and we would be happy to check it out for you, as stated go over on My350z.com see how many cars we build and how many customers are happy. We wouldn't still be in business if even one of the accusations made by the poster above were true. Look at RA, oh wait they aren't around anymore are they?
