whoa i didn't know athens blue looked like that...that color does look nice...but when i said "dont know about athens blue" i meant i don't know how it looks in person

 

Heh I like all 3, I didn't mean silver isn't nice, it's that when a color is more common it loses its "wow" effect after a while. The OP asked how they compare maintenance-wise and I have to admit that AB is harder to keep clean than BS and DG. But I love how the blue stands out everywhere I go and I never see clones of my car on the road, as opposed to the other 2 colors, which are the only downsides to them I can think of. But what's a downside to me might be a plus to someone else, so it all relative.

 

Wow . . . Thanks everyone for your comments. I just got home. After reading all of your replies, it's still a coin toss. However, I will know as early as tomorrow night. I have decided to purchase my new G this weekend.

I test drove 2 G coupes, today. Both were 6MT's. All I have to say is . . . . Dang! The 6MT's shifted butter smooth. I had one car for 3 hours. I signed a release/borrow slip, got a dealer's plate for the rear window and I was off! I do not need to tell you folks the rest of the story . . .

Both had the Sports Tuned Suspension and I was quite pleased with the way the cars handled. The fit and finish in the '05 coupe is not as good as my brother's '04 sedan, especially in the back seats.

The G, in my opinion, gave me a better driving experience than my 3 previous BMW's. Too bad no convertible is offered.

Thanks again for everyones' input. This forum is great. It has helped me make an informed buying decision.

 

get silver

 

Athens Blue...

 

Look at how nice the front end of the G looks on silver

 

ATHEN BLUE!!!!!!!!!

 

Rumors point to a convertable being avalable in the 06 model.

 

Hey a G Sportster Wouldn't Infiniti have to make it into a two seater too?
