Happy G owner w/ pics.

Well I walked away with a G after all on my adventure for car chasing. I love fast cars and was looking at the Hyundai Genesis coupe extensively. Test drove it... I loved it too. It changed my mind quickly when I had brought it up to a navy coworker that I would be trying to buy a car. He asked me why Hyundai? and I said.... The car is beautiful all around and drives amazing. He convincingly told me to check out other cars around the same prices: Lexus IS350, Honda TL Type S, and Camaro were some of the names he mentioned. The funnier thing was I had to convince my wife because she was soooo made up on this genesis. We took it for a spin and there was no turning back. It was love at first sight I'm glad it wasn't hard for me to convince my wife because it was that easy.

Overall, the torque in this car is unbelievable and I just drove it cross country from Maryland to California without a problem. (about 3000 miles) I'm looking forward to learning more from the seasoned G vets on this forum. If theres any tips on making my car look better I'm up for the advice. I do intend on do minor things to keep the car clean as possible. I started off by tinting the car.. BTW this is also my FIRST manual car. I know not the ideal car to learn to drive a manual but it took me 2-3 days of a 15 minute session to learn. Still a bit jerky on the clutch but I managed to drive it home to Cali)

Heres my DG 07 G35 coupe 6MT Enjoy!

some mods ive looked into are nismo exhaust and clear corners. I'm shopping around for rims but haven't found the right ones just yet. I'm trying to keep my car as classy as possible

i've seen lots of posts on this forum that say the nismo exhaust will drone.... the general consensus seems to favor Motordyne (practically unlimited options there), Fast Intentions, or HKS
