That is the problem, I have OEM size brakes. If I had a BBK, I'd definitely get the S-55. This is why I'm on the fence

Well, I brought my car in for service and to my surprise I got the new G as a loaner...I love the new sedan. So I have decided that come the summer time, I am going to trade in my G for the new one. Cant wait. Summer cant come any faster.

This is a little off topic, but when you were in the loaner, didn't you feel like your knees hit the doors and dash? I banged my knees twice gettin into the car and I hated how cramped the interior was.

I recently had a new G35x loaner... didn't like it. Too squishy and luxury-car like.

Its weird. I didnt feel like I was cramped in the front but my friends in the back said it felt like it was a little tighter then my 05. However, when looking at the specs on the interior the new sedan has more Legroom, headroom, shoulder room and hip room. in both the front and the rear.

The one feature that I dont understand why they got rid of was the reclining rear seats. Everyone that was in my car loved them.

Dam man. I really want to trade in for the new one however there are a bunch of new options that are finally coming out. New front bumper. New front lip. Now only if we could get us X's some shocks or some coilovers. If that would happen I would def. keep my ride.
