Re: Traded in my 03 Sedan

The big *** and the huge rear bumper are less and less appealing to me as time goes by.

Funny, I didn't even notice this until I pulled up behind a coupe at a stoplight the other day. In general, though, I think that the coupe is stunning. The sedan is more understated, and I love mine.

Re: Traded in my 03 Sedan

That's my only qualm with the coupe's styling-- otherwise I love it. I notice it more on lighter colors... The new girl in the coupe forum who got it for x-mas said the sedan was hideous and cited its large rear bumper (??). Maybe I missed something. I think it's gorgeous when it flows in dark colors, but it's totally subjective. I know half the people here don't even think the understated elegance, yet sportiness of the sedan is appealing. It's all good.

I also like the idea of a sleeper, sexy sedan over a car that's just saying "try and race me". I'd rather surprise another auto-maker's coupe with my sedan's ability than just try to weigh in the same category.

To quote Geo, this is exactly why I like the sedan.

Re: Traded in my 03 Sedan

Hey guys, been out of town over the weekend. I hope no one interpreted my post as a smear on the sedan! I loved my sedan, and I don't think the coupe is superior, my preferences just changed. Anyway, here are a few pics I took today of the new car. It's in the shop getting tinted tonight, so hopefully I'll have some new pics tomorrow after the metallic is on.

Didn't think it was a smear on the sedan at all-- we just always take the topic and run (in the wrong direction, if it's me responding). Enjoy your new baby!

Re: Traded in my 03 Sedan

You traded for a used coupe? Has license plate already? It takes about 3 weeks to get plates here...

Re: Traded in my 03 Sedan

Oh no, another mid-life crisis? Sedan to coupe. Front license plate frame saying "Player", and all. Oh wait, maybe that's Plaza... Well, the DG sure looks great! Congrats! [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Traded in my 03 Sedan

Haha, no it's not a used car. The plates are just the plates from the sedan I traded in.. Like you said I wont get the paperwork from the dealer for a few weeks. And the plate frame does indeed say "Plaza", not "Playa", haha! Plaza Infiniti is where I purchased both my cars.

Ahh.. That's cool they let you swap the plates out. Very nice!
