Sold but not gone for my G35 Coupe

I've only owned my G35 for about a year, but have to say it has been one of the best cars I've ever owned.
I'm 50 years old, and have owned more than 100 cars in my lifetime. I have ordered a new CTS Coupe, not a V version for two reasons.
1.) This will replace my G as my dd and I need the gas mileage that the regular model offers (27MPG) as oppossed to the V's 18MPG
2.) I already own a 2008 Z06 Corvette that will SPANK the CTS-V!

I couldn't bring myself to part company with the G, so I sold it to my 22 year old daughter, she loved the car the day she saw it, so now it's all hers.

Before you bash me about being old and buying a Caddie, take a look at one in person, they are really a nice looking car both on the outside, and the interior.
I had to order mine with the manual 6 speed, so it'll still be about two months before I get it, but I am looking forward to it!
I never really did post here very often, but I did receive some great advice and help from you guys...

Thanks for all your help and

No offense taken, actually she is. She's a swimsuit model. A beautiful woman on the inside and the outside.
But she is my daughter, so please guys...be respectful.
Thanks for all the kind words about the CTS everyone.

LOL, some G drivers seem more desperate than the Honda drivers.

I guess your G isn't getting you any? Better put on some 20's and carbon fiber hood and some clear corners. Maybe that would help?

Just saw some pics of the CTS. The Interior is almost like the G. It even has a pop up navi. Nice upgrade.

This is pimp.


I have no interests in American cars. But the CTS is a nice looking car.
