Sedans are not that bad...

Remember 4do's mo ho's.

But seriously what ever you can do to a coupe you can do to a sedan.

I would probably not get a G35 if I were you. It's going to feel very sluggish in acceleration, as well as sloppy and heavy in the corners compared to a modded EVO. At age 18, as much as you think you won't want/need to go too fast... I'm sure you actually desire it more than you think, now that you're used to the EVO.

Unless you feel that the EVO really doesn't fit your personality, and you feel like you're driving a car that really doesn't belong to you(like borrowing a friends car)... I'd probably keep it, or get something else a little faster than the G. The G is a great car and I love mine, but it's just not that fast at all. The G is mostly about looking nice and being a great mix of luxury, semi-performance, and enough fun to please your average non-tuner driver without breaking the bank too badly. If you get a G, I'm sure you'll want to mod it at some point... and it's not the most mod-friendly car in terms of bang for the buck aftermarket performance.

Words can only say soo much though. You'll see when you test drive it how slow it will feel comparatively speaking to your EVO.

One thing you might want to do, Go to the service area, pull a mechanic to the side, ask him for his honest personal opinion...

See what they tell you.

N/A mods will do nothing for this car. if you want power you will need to go FI, but as you stated earlier your not looking for power your going for looks... a nice drop and wheels...

So i think you will be quite happy with a G...

Most of the time, they'll look over their shoulder make sure no sales man or managers are around and give you the low down on the cars.

Just stop being a woosie and get a g! You know you want to. Get it, put a turbo in it. and don't mod it after that. Then you will be perfectly content with your new g. it will be fast as all hell, and look 10000% better than your evo. Good luck to you on that.

If you want a car to race around in on the streets than just stick to your EVO. If you want to grauduate to a more mature ride then get the G. If the power is not there for ya...then do like the guy above said...Turbo it.
