Because every time I head out to go somewhere the Goat sucks me in. It's a much more enjoyable DD than the G and I thought that my infatuation with her would diminish somewhat after owning her for a while. Well it's been almost a year and the love gets deeper and deeper every day. So after 7 years it's time to get the G in the hands of someone who will take good care of her and driver her regularly. She deserves to be driven often and I just can't offer her that any more.
Soo... I'm pretty sure your talking about your GTO... What if you swapped your GTOs engine in your G35..? Would that make you not want to get rid of it..?Not talking trash, but my friend has had his is300 for as long as you had your G. He sold it now and is all about his GTO..

An LS2 in the G would be sick for sure. But because the GTO has such low miles (35K), is a much more comfortable ride and the fact the G has 136K miles I'm going to leave things alone. I do sometimes miss a lot of the creature comforts and tech goodies the G has but I am digging a stock car that makes me ecstatic every time I turn the key.

He said the gto doesn't have what the G has.
American cars just can't get interiors right. For all the flack the G catches on its interior (especially the 03/4) it's still much nicer than most American cars. Even the corvette is SO GM.

True that, however the GTO has a bad azz on-board computer that does all kind of cool ****.
On the interior issue I've seen a lot of newer American cars that have pretty bad interiors with what I consider sub-standard materials. Fortunately even for an 06 the gto's interior is simple but vastly superior in quality than almost all of the GM cars from that year. However my mom bought a 2015 Buick Lacrosse recently and I have to say I really like the interior. If it didn't have the tiny EcoTec motor I'd drive that car whenever I had the chance.
