Are you serious with this statement?

I don't think a G35 could be described as high end, luxury, or as a sports car...

Really depends what your budget is. A Bentley is higher in class than a Lexus/Inf/BMW etc and significantly more expensive.

If you really want a decent step-up from the G, I would consider something like Porsche 911, MB CLK63/65 Black Series, Lotus, Nissan GTR (don't take traction control off LOL), older Lambos/Ferraris. Again, it really depends on your budget and if it's going to be a toy or a daily driver.

what about a 94 supra TT? Do those cars have any problems? I've asked my local shop but they really didnt have much to say other than buy it.

I had a similar experience. I sold my 04 G coupe after getting fed up with the repair and maintenance costs, but I missed the car too much and ended up buying a 06 G coupe last year. Make sure you really want to get rid of the G, you may regret it!

tranny 5000 what, got a manual for 800 bucks had 9000 miles on it came off a z, installed 500 bucks.

Nothing on this car should cost that much to fix I did my engine for 2500 out the door. (engine plus labor, got an 05 now too in my 03)

Is actually already out is called 335is and yeah I've seen 07-08 335i with low mileage going from $25k-$30k here in FL. With 2 or 3 grand you will be in the middle 12s on the 1/4 mile. Thats probably my next car.
