I think you kids driving around your parents' G's, thinking the car is yours because they bought it for you and that you deserve it, are absolutely worthless. You won't amount to a thing in this world because you'll never do a hard day's worth of work and you'll free-load off of your parents or someone else throughout your adult years. I saw it happen to all the privileged kids I knew in college, not a single one ever made anything worthwhile out of the vast opportunities they were given.
In a way I almost feel sorry for you, but mostly I just think you all are worthless.

So they investigate the idea but dont like the smog issues (california) and the voiding the warantee.. Soooo they suggested buying me a new car a 350z or a g35... i personally love teh g35, its goregeous but im not sure if its the better choice... I will be heavily modding the g if i get one so in the long run the g will be faster than a turbo 05rsxs... once i research more of the g35 i'll know if i can turbo it and have warrantee and etc... anywayz i'd like to hear from everyone !!!

I worked for all my cars -- but you got a good thing going -- so don't blow it....
I used to own an MR2 Turbo, Acura Integra, and just sold my '04 WRX this weekend (currently own a '05 G35 coupe). RWD coupes are just more fun, and as you add power -- laws of physics dictate that RWD can take you farther as you add power without doing bizarre changes to your vehicle to keep your front-end down.
The WRX was fantastic - and I've driven STIs on several occassions. Money doesn't seem to be a problem with you so my recommendation - get the STI or one of the Lancer EVOs. Factory-backed speed is great. AWD in a performance car is something to behold. (And if you go with the STI -- I liked the products from COBB. http://www.cobbtuning.com.) For the best-bang-for-your-buck crowd -- get the Neon SRT-4.
But the best advice -- take the money and go send yourself to a performance driving school. There will always be someone out there that can out-spend you and buy their performance. It's a lot more fun, and satisfying if you can beat a BMW or Merc in a road course because of your superior SKILL -- and that translates to any car you might own.

Here's my $.02....
Someone already said what I would have. At 18 a EVO or WRX Sti would be much more fun. It sounds like you enjoy the performance aspect of a vehicle whereas a G is more a near-luxury sports coupe. The G35 i doin a 5.8-6.0 whereas a WRX Sti can scoot to 60 in 4.8. Modify that and forget about it, u are talking Ferrari territory. If you are worried about the warranty then no matter what u get you will limit yourself to what u can do and get away with. At least with a STI or EVO your already at a extremely high performance level. If you havent driven a STI go to your nearest dealer, its a amazing vehicle. Again if i was 18 I would rather have a ultra-high performance vehicle over a luxury car.

Here is another issue. Kid lives in cali, and I can it getting harder and harder to own a modified car in that state, between the fuel and smog issues and the crackdown on modded cars being street racers in SAC it would be really hard to do much to the car and not get tickets for it...
And stock for stock you can get into alot more trouble with a evo or sti...I used to own a very very very fast subie and would hear all the time kids getting one or the other and going way too fast thinking the awd would save them, then lifting off the throttle and chasing a grove of trees or telephone pole with the *** end of the car...
