Moving my house to Club Lexus?

I'm sorry if the thread is not belong in here, but I would like to share my feeling with the fellow G-Drivers. I've been baby-ing my coupe for 5 years and been with the Driver little more than 4 years + a lot of memories. It's time for me to merge onto something more family due to feeling bad seeing my wife and kid cramp in the back seats of the G and not so safe on my winter beater Accord on snowy days. As for now, I can only able to afford 1 car until the wifey is finish with her 8 years (1 more year to go), so I took her to see if I can trade in my G for the GS 350 AWD (used). On my way to the dealer on Friday night, I kept seing break lights of the coupes on the roads and some how that gave me the feeling of loosing/missing something I really love, something I adore every time looking at it. I'm not sure if I am able to let the G go yet and if time to move to the new house, would the GS 350 AWD able to make me fall in love like the G did and still is? *sigh* Sad every time thinking of it. Have any of you ever get that feeling?

actually, i'm going through something similar, my job is very unstable, one minute i'm loosing my job, next minute i get a "promotion" but i need to start taking clients out...

i sold of my sc300 and am in the process of selling the g coupe for a 4 door luxury car...i hate to sell it after all the work put in, but it's either keep the g and not have a job or stray away for awhile then hopefully come back one day....

Get a Bimmer or Audi.

I am so done with Japanese cars. I'm keeping the G for a long time though.

It's difficult I know. I have 3 small children now and can only take out two at a time with the G. The infant seat is on the passenger side and I have to move the passenger seat way forward. I also have to move my seat pretty far forward when my 5 and 7 year old are sitting behind me because their feet get cramped up. I will probably keep my G for another year or so, but it's time for me to move on to something larger myself. Shockingly I may even take a look at the Hyundai Genesis! Long way off so we shall see.

i think we all reach a point...

* some of us have kids, or "plan to have kids"...more people than just U, and a "wifey"
*the practicality of a "sports coupe" doesnt seem to mesh with the lifestyle and its additions *wife.kids.luggage.travel.space.etc
* i say, keep the G coupe. trade your accord for a suv.van.or a larger used sedan...
*then again, its what u really need. if the only way for you to have a bigger car is to sell the G, then its time...

* i have my g, the wifey has a civic 4dr, which we ended up using more these days..so its working out...a sedan is really for hauling people.things around. im already being forced to sell my civic hatch completely modded, and i get the feeling as well of "losing something u worked for.worked at, love..."

good luck..let us know what u do
