My Test Drive

Tested the 350Z last week, so it was time to try the G35 Coupe, right?

My present car, the Honda S2000, has a much snugger interior that "fits like a glove." The G35 is even longer than the 350Z. so I expected the G35 to feel noticeably bigger than my own car.

I even tried the automatic when I tested it (I tested the 350Z with the 6-speed), and the automatic is fine (first gear is geared low for a rapid getaway).

The G35 Coupe will be a logical step up from my roadster to a more comfortable GT, now that I've reached retirement age!

I plan to continue to follow this Forum, and to eventually take the ownership plunge!

Re: My Test Drive

Welcome to the forum dude. First name isn't Mike is it?
Been lots of converts from S2k, even a few with both haha.You'll be happy with either the Sedan or Coupe depending on circumstances. Good luck with your purchase, and look forward to your posts. [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

It's Tom, not Mike.

Palmateer refers to my other hobby, growing a collection of palm trees.

It helps to live in Florida!

By the way, palms make a nice backdrop for car photos!
