How would the G35 rate with your old cars?

In my first post ever on G35driver I mentioned that I have owned 15 cars. Just for giggles I thought I would list them. As it turns out I was wrong, the G35 is acutally my 15th. It's pretty obvious why the G35 tops my list so far. Just curious as to how others would rate the G35 on their personal lists. Some peeps may not be able to list all theirs, but others may have a easy task of it.

1) 2004 Infiniti G35 Sedan AT
2) 1998 BMW 318i AT
3) 1984 Ford Mustang LX MT (1st car)
4) 1988 Buick Regal RS AT
5) 1993 Honda CRX SI MT
6) 1989.5 Ford Thunderbird LX AT
7) 1997 Saturn SC2 Coupe MT (my last car b4 the G)
8) 1990 Saab 900 Turbo AT (Problems, problems, problems)
9) 1984 Chevy Citation MT (V6-surprisingly, this baby screwed)
10) 1985 Ford Granada AT
11) 1984 Mercury Zypher AT (Pulled the V8 engine & trans from Granada & clipped off the emmisions - pure POWER tho loud)
12) 1982 Buick Skylark AT
13) 1986 Ford Escort MT
14) 1987 Ford Escort MT (rebuilt engine from 86' Escort)
15) 1988 Renault K Car MT

04' Sedan / 5AT / Ivory Pearl / Willow / Premium

Re: How would the G35 rate with your old cars?

Of the ones I remember that we've had in the family (not all mine- I've only had a handful), from best to worst:

2003.5 G35
2003 FX35
1987 Aston Martin v8 vantage volante
1986 Jag Xj-6
1996 SHO
1991 SHO
19** Alfa romeo spider
1987 MB 560-SL
2002 Stang GT convertible
2003 Envoy
2001 Durango
1991 4-runner
1995 Montana
1993 Chrysler Town & Country
1985 BMW POS
1996 Ford F-150
1996 Blazer
1995 Geo Prizm (one of these things is not like the other...)

Most of the cool ones were when we lived in europe... the minivans are from the US [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img] Obviously my G is the best because it's my current infatuation.

I've had two Accords ('86 and '92), a '79 Camaro Z28, and an '83 LTD Crown Vic.

The G35 can run circles around all of them while observing the recommended break-in procedures.

Re: How would the G35 rate with your old cars?

I've owned

2003.5 G35 Sedan
2001 Dodge Intrepid
1994 Probe GT
1984 Plymouth Horizon

Forget about the two Chryslers they both suck between the G35 adn the Probe GT I actually liked the Probe GT better... but I guess that is mostly because it was a stick shift and my G is an auto... ahh wife needs to drive it and 4 doors because we have a baby or I'd be sitting in a 6MT Coupe or better yet 350Z right now
