i wasnt talking about back in 2003 2004, now u can pick em up $11-13k in good condition.....

thats like my friend saying his lexus LS was $50k back in 1996.....

 

You're still talking about ricing out a car that was once $40,000 not a $16,000 Civic.

Or are we comparing 2003-2009?

 

so sad. i remember buying my G35 at almost 30k after tax & license n such with extended warranty now i owe exactly Kbb value

 

i did? if i did im so sorry!!!! i take it all back! i

im not for rice im against rice! but im pretty sure i didnt... thas why i think the whole r34 crap is friggen stupid...
i was comparing 03/04


i understand s13 conversions on s13 and ITR front on a integra, or even the euro civic front on a civic....but a r34 on anything thats not an r34.....hello west cost costumes, ur going to be officially pimped...

 

I didnt pay 40 for mine... but I've spent way more than that all together

40K for a fist gen (new) is a bit high...

 

I don't care if you can get a sedan for free, it doesn't turn a ridiculously stupid idea into a good one.

 

 

Get a new Maxima, it already looks like a wannabe GTR to me

 

i paid just under 40 for mine. fully loaded with EVERY option.

some of these options are stlil present in my car today, some gone hahahahah

 

kinda high for a first gen...

 

They do look really really good, too bad that unlike the RWD G35 the Maxima is still Dumb Wheel Drive

 

not when you factor in premium, nav, aero, sport, all the accessories you can think of, and then stupid gap insurance and then their stupid shock sensitive alarm (hustled). + tax and license, it was just under 40, i remember clearly because I only have 8,000 for a car, and that went toward about 20% of the down lol.

 

Yes.. I too paid around 40k for mine. But dammit its been good to me for the past 5 years!!

 

Just because you can now buy a G35 sedan for the same amount of money as a civic, doesnt mean it should be treated like a civic.

 

+1


Don't ruin the car to make it "unique". The fact that the G35 has become so affordable in price means younger guys are now thinking to themselves "Hmm, $15K to spend....150HP civic? or 298HP G35?"

As a result, I see coupes with ill-fitting fiberglass body kits with chipped paint and blue LED's and 3% tint everywhere these days.
