I finally got one after months of research between the 04 TL and 04 G35! I was not satisfied with how the TL felt. It didn't feel sporty enough for me. I drive over 100 miles a day alone, and want something that feels sporty and fun!

The specs:

2004 G35 Sedan, 6spd, Premium, Bose, Sport, DG color, $31,200

I plan to take pictures when the weather gets better. It has been crappy and I over 100 miles home in the rain from the dealer! Man that sucked, but it felt alot more comfortable to drive than in my SUV. It handled the road VERY TIGHT, even in the rain. It also has tons of power in 6th gear in reserve without even shifting. I was surprised. The TL had hardly any.

Thanks guys, you made it happen for me!

 

Love this car in the rain! Just don't turn off the VDC system in the rain until you're really comfortable with the way the car handles at (and beyond) it's limits. Wet pavement + RWD + 260lb-ft = really eager to fishtail.

Congrats. Sounds like you've got 1100 miles to go before true enjoyment can begin.

 

Yep, I gotta wait!

 

welcome, enjoy & drive carefully. Good choice too!

 

congrats... i know you'll love it. it rides and handles like the near luxury sports car that it is and i get lots of compliments on the looks. i use the term near luxury as a plus.... to me if the car rides like i'm in the living room easy chair it's luxury and i DON'T want that in my sports car. this car has just enough "luxury" to be classy but not frumpy.
