A M3 and G37 isn't going to have good gas mileage, get a geo if your going to complain about mileage.

Regardless of whether Gas prices are soaring or not . . . Selling your G, I assume that it is paid off, will most likely cost you more monies. Gas is not really that expensive if you sit down and figure it out versus buying a car with higher MPG potential. Look at the total picture.

With regard to, "becoming an impractical car with cops and there lidar everywere . . . " You are going to have some of the same issues regardless of what car you drive. It's your personal driving habits and not the car, which you are driving, that is resulting in LE issues.

Good luck to you on your decision.

No offense but how is an 09 M3, or an 09 G37 any more practical than your 04 G?

The things that you are complaining about is saying you should get a brand new Civic Si sedan.. Sorry if you took that as an insult lol.

I'd have to agree with Andy, you will lose more money selling your car. I lost a LOT selling my G Coupe, but I wasn't trying to save money. lol.


The G doesn't use that much gas anyways. And using supreme over regular really isnt' THAT much of a difference for each fill up. It's all how you drive and how much.

Ahhhh, sorry guys didn't make it sound like it is.
What I'm looking to do is go to a 4 cylinder turbo or something alike it. Gas is much cheaper for how many miles I drive. The poll option is for like a future car in like 5-6 more years, just seeing what peoples opinions were.
Anyways I hear where you are all coming from. Thanks

your still not making any sense...getting a turbo for like an evo or subaru isnt going to make your gas price woes any better

Just my opinion....

If you are talking for the future, why didn't you include the new GTR in your poll ? It's gonna be cheaper than the new M3 and it will out perform it.

WHAT!! The new GT-R is going to run 90,000+, however if it comes out in 09 and you buy it in 2014 it will go down in price, but i guarantee that it will be still so expensive to due to its rarity.

What do you thik the new M3 is going to run? Don't expect to pay below 100K for the M3 after dealer markup. In 2014 the GTR won't be that bad b/c by then they will have a newer and faster GTR . It may be expensive but nowhere near 90K. A new one you will be able to get for $90K or a little less after dealer markup. Remember the new GTR's are stickering at $69,000.
