New 2005 G35 Coupe 5spd a/t Owner
Hello all
I have been browsing these forums for some time now. I finally decided to make a name and become a part of the family officially. All of you that have issues with your vehicles really assisted me with my own car over the last few months and I thank you all.
A little history lesson:
Back in November (6th to be exact) 2010, My parents and I went car shopping. PAUSE WAIT yes I'm 20 years old, I know I am young compared to the majority, but I will like to go off topic saying that I take great care of my baby. I drive her slow and steady to conserve my gas since she drives like she has a v-8 in her knowing good and well she doesn't. I keep her clean I wash her and vacuum her every friday unless it rains then I do it on the next available day. I don't do backseat riders because my seats are in PERFECT CONDITION. So before the elders of the boards flame I will like to say I got it covered lol. I got her for 18 grand with 30,000 miles on her, but because I live in Georgia and my mom makes me come home ALOT I put 10,000 miles on her I just hit 40,000 miles. I used to have tail-light tint on it, but this car wash my dad recommended put air bubbles in it and really destroyed my left tail-light so I took them both off. She is 100% stock, I want to do tasteful mods to her nothing ugly and fast and furious like, just something that makes you look at it twice like wow that is tasteful. I would like to shave off the infiniti in the back and put skyline there as well. There isn't much that happened between me and this car in the last 8months, I will post pics and will take pics of the interior as soon as possible, but like I said she is still in 0miles on the odometer clean. I will post some pics that I recently took with a friend of mine that just got the new 2011 scion tc (those things are actually kind of fast) I think what hurts that car is the fact that it's FF, but here are the pics hope you all enjoy!!
PS. Yes I know a/t sucks and all, but that was the only way I can get the g35 coupe because how dense traffic is in Atlanta and insurance because im young and all the other stuff parents come up with to stop me from getting a skyline 350gt. Also, I purchased this car in Columbia, South Carolina for those who are wondering how I got it so cheap.
(I tried to upload the recent pics but they were too big anyway how to get around this? im a basic (free) member as well) smallest pic from my canon camera was 2.5 mb thanks)

Tasteful is in the eye of the beholder. 'I' recommend dropping the pinstripe and sunroof air deflector.
Has the 30K maintenance been done? it isn't much, but since you drive alot I'd stick to the factory maintenance schedule or something more aggressive.

Well, I don't know if I want it all shaved off in the back or the skyline emblems still debating they both look nice to me and I do plan on doing future modding, im still shopping around looking at what looks nice. Far as the maintenance the dealership did it right when we purchased it because it was at like 29,995 miles. The car came with the pinstripe and sunroof air deflector, I plan on taking both off for a cleaner look, but in order for me to get it my dad and I agreed on not modding it for 1 year which will be over in a few months.
Thank you all for the welcomes will have some new pics up soon (interior)

Welcome to DRIVER! Congratulations on finding such a clean low mileage OB coupe. Members rarely get flamed unless they start making numerous threads on subjects where the answers can be found by doing a SEARCH. Enjoy your ride, sounds like you are....

Thanks for all the welcomes too, I probably won't be posting on many threads though because I'm still getting educated from the older ones.
I guess you are right, I like the Mount Fuji though I'm not taking that off. I just might shave off that infiniti under it and leave the Mount Fuji and the G35 (top right corner). It's just too much going on back there lol. IDK I guess i'll experiment in the upcoming months will keep you all posted. Especially since I just landed a job under my dad making 120$ a day for 3 weeks (mon-friday) I should be able to make some modding money and hold on to it until then.
