G35X Sedan
Traded in my newly purchased sedan for a coupe

New to this section of the forum and just wanted to say hi. Got (what I thought was) a killer ebay deal on a sedan that turned out to be somewhat of a nightmare. Body all ****ed up, interior was **** and engine doing weird things. Needless to say I wanted out. Found a reasonably priced coupe and went to see it yesterday.

Not only did they take my sedan off my hands for a reasonable trade in price, I got this beauty. Interior is immaculate and so is the paint, even though it needs to be buffed badly (ex detailer) this car was clearly cared for and it runs strong. I always wanted the coupe anyway, the body lines are so aesthetic imo. Really happy with this purchase and also happy to be here. Looking forward to modding the **** outta this car. It's already so fun to drive.

Nice find, congrats!
I suggest some 06+ headlights as your first mod, it changes the look of the car and makes it look more modern. Ebay has some good deals.

Nice find - welcome. Great forum here, lots of folks can give you advice. More importantly - chances are anything you want to do has been done, so makes it a bit easier to mod when you can review other people's experience.

Now go drive it!!

Great advice on updating the look. Try to find the OEM headlights as they also put out superior light and increase visibility but stay way from the cheap eBay crap. Light output and quality are ****.

I forgot what these cars looked like without the spoiler, etc. Still a hot car. Throw on the OEM sport front end, a spoiler and some brembo or whatever calipers, tint the windows, maybe some new rims, the car goes from clean and hot to super sexy! I have the black as well. Took nearly 12+ hours this summer with some 3m compounds and good waxes and the car shines like a mirror. I still see absolutely no reason to part with these coupes. The 85k+ lexus has nothing on it, truly. Enjoy the ride man! Sweeet, sweeet ride!
