Out with the old and in with the new

Just upgraded to an 05 DG Coupe fully loaded. I picked up on friday. Felt kinda sad leaving my Blk 03 but the new car smell kinda made me forget about it.lol.

From the 05 to the 03 differences I have noticed:

1. Leather is alot softer to me and def a lil more plushy
2. The motorized navi is sick and definitely the way it should be
3. The aluminum brushed look is definitely alot more nicer lookin than that plastic shiet
4. The shift boot and and **** is much nicer
5. The steering seems more loose but definitely controlled. Maybe the sport suspension
6. The brakes don't seem as responsive as the 03, kinda miss that.
7. The seat positioning this is a huge + too.

And no I din't get the 6mt. I punked out after the test drive when I stalled out like 10 times including on busy sunrise highway with no hazards..lol

Yea definitely big ups to Daniel @ Atlantic. I definitely got what I was lookin for. Also Ravi (blackhood sedan) had been pretty instrumental makin sure this deal worked out, so good lookin 4 dat. I m tryin to hold off on puttin the 20's on until next summer so I can send them out to get repolished but I dunno man. We gonna try them on sometime soon and see how it looks..
As for the color I m still tryin to get adjusted that. Nooch is right, its hard going from black to this. I m used to the black too but supposedly everyone thinks this color looks good, so we'll see.

G35Girlie, glad to see I m not the only that notices the changes. A lot people think its the same car but there are a good deal of noticeable differences

Thanks for all the kind words fellas. As soon as I get sum pics I ma post it up sucka!

-Vin
