Congratulations, you made a great deal finding that beautiful G37 at a very low cost to you. A set of quality tires would cost you more then the $1500....very nice!

Not bad, I prefer the styling and lines of the 35 though. I think Infiniti lost their edge when they went to the 37s. Hopefully they come out with something sportier in the near future.
Yes, at least I know the S models do, and push button start (which is sorta weird to get use to not touching the key Fob to get in, start, etc.)

Are those polished rays on the G35??? Im diggin those. Did you have someone do them?
Thanx Jgitt,
Yes, they are the factory Rays. When I first got my G, the wheels were pretty chewed up and the factory silver paint was actually 2 different shades between some of them. So I took them to NewWheel here in AZ and had them repaired and chromed (it was about $800, they had a lot of curb damage). I had seen it done before, and I'm not usually a chrome guy, buy they really helped bring-out some brightness to my DG (things can get a little too grey/dreary with DG, like living in England
It was definitely the feature on my car that got the most attention, I ran 275s on the back and if I had run a bit of a spacer, it would have been perfect.

Nice! that is a GREAT deal.
The G37c is weird to me... i LOVE the front end... but the **** is... bleh. No joke the **** would keep me from buying one haha. If I did, Id be looking how G37 to G35 rear end conversions haha.
but the fact is, you got a newer car, with a better resale down the road. WIN!

@ReStylin,
I feel ya, I always thought the 37 looked too big & wavy. Oddly though, the front end looked the worst to me, too much like an Altima coupe. Once I was around them more, the shape grew on me, and now 2 wks into owning & detailing on one, I really like it a lot. Now 35 coupes are starting to look "dated" to me, which is very weird because I was Obsessed & In LOVE with the G35 for yrs before I got one, and I thought mine would never look old to me (I still think the 35 is a timeless design, sorta like the Lexus SC400 coupe, those are 20yrs old and nice ones still look fairly current).
So, I do miss my 35, but I think I'm already digging the 37 enough that I will get over it soon (kinda like my Women relationships!)

I know what you mean. But those wheels look amazing. I plan on getting spacers soon but i definately am gonna look around here to find a local place to chrome mine. That just looks so good to me lol.Originally Posted by Sharkroy

I really recommend that you do! If there is no place locally that can do them for you affordably, there are a few companies to be found on-line that do exchanges (they'll send you the done-up ones first, and you ship your old ones back to them).
