I hope she is, cuz I'd hate to see you on Dateline on NBC walking into an empty kitchen naked with your d*ck hanging out while Chris Hansen awaits you...
UGH...YOU CHILD PREDATOR!!!!
but if you're not, and she's a REAL girlfriend that you've met before, then you're still good in my book...

I love the seats in my coupe, supper comfy. As far as bugs, lots and lots of way. Everytime u stop for gas, wipe them off with the windsheld cleaner thing at the gas station. I wanted a clear bra, but i think its too late now. take the G for a ride, its nice to have your wheels with u...meeting up with ur GF in a rental is like renting rims and then entering into a car show....not pimp
I should had pick one up in philly too, since even daytona beach people pick up their car somewhere else.
I brought my G at the Daytona Beach Auto Auction, seems like a pretty big auction!

dont forget the millions of rock chips you will get. the g35 bumpers really suck. they get chipped so easy. my bumper is pretty rough and it only has like 6000 miles. i drive on the highway everyday to school. my old car was a civic and it didnt have as many rock chips as this car and plus it was a lot older with more miles

i drove to montreal, canada from NYC round trip 4 times just to meet my gf.
i met her back in shanghai, NOT on the internet
thats 800 mi per round trip
the first time i went there, i didnt know they spoke french in qc and they use french scientific measurements. after you enter canadian border, you can see road signs like 60km=/ 60mi. all the signs are in French!!!! the first french i learned was "sortie" which means exit
the good thing i have a navi in my car and it covers u.s. and canada so i knew where to go!~
car wash is cheap in montreal! its only 10 bucks for hand wash!~ in nyc, its like 30 bucks includes tips!
anyway, it was a fun trip

Did the car still feel "solid" afterwards? Just wondering how bad of a beating the suspension/chassis take and if it would affect driveability?

Road Trip........West Coast Style!
Anyone that lives in Ca. and hasn't driven Hwy 1 all the way to Oregon hasn't
seen the best of what Ca. has to offer. In some regions you jet between
Hwy 1 and 101 and getting thru San Francisco takes some doing. My starting
point is Ventura to Carmel, make sure you fill up on gas before reaching Point
Sur it's always been high probably $6= a gal nowdays. Monterey is a good
spot to spend the night. Then it's off north thru San Francisco to some of
the finest coast line anywhere in the world. A little farther and you're in the
redwoods, some of the largest/oldest trees on our planet. Lots of nice places
to stay and eat all the way to Oregon. Now going home you take Hwy 5 to
just before Sacramento, take Hwy 50 into Lake Tahoe for a few nights of
kick'in back........makes for a great week or so on the road in California. Don't
forget your camera!

hahaha i ended up renting a car.
Got a pontiac g6, though there was a g35 sedan as an option but it was like 60-70 $ a day.
First off I would say aloooooooooooooooooooot of bugs got kilt. Second had a flat tire with the rental, sucks if i wouldve drove my baby. Third i beat the crap out of that rental lol, sometimes you get road hypnosis and do not realize you're doing 100+ and taking up two lanes lol. (we drove at night to avoid traffic, and i was so psyched i didnt get any sleep the previous day)
Fun trip nonetheless no tickets =P but i dont think ill take my baby out for that long of a trip

I went from boston to toronto.. it's a NICE drive.. and alot of fun.. especially since you will have your car there.. When I fly somewhere.. I always end up seeing cars or nice areas that I wish I had my car!!
The only downside was my gas money and garage parking was more than buying a plane ticket...
The G coupe was great on the highway.. I wasn't even in boost most of the time.. It was me and my GF at the time.. I did stuff a crap load of tools and stuff in the backseat with our luggage. And I brought a good 6 qt's of oil!
I really want to do one from Boston to Cali next year. We'll see how my summer 07 ends up
