Hey, I'm new here.

For the past seven years I've been a die-hard VW driver but recently felt the need for a change. I wanted a car that wouldn't break down all the time (because I'm getting ready for Dental School and I need something reliable) and I wanted something that was RWD because understeer gets really annoying after a while. I was lucky to find a 2005 G35 6MT sedan with 45k on the clock for a good price so I jumped on it and I have been loving every second behind the wheel.

To the pictures:








I don't plan on modding the car in any way, I'm very happy with the speed and handling capabilities as they are now. Any advice you have for a new G owner would be appreciated.

Yeah I will give you some very good advice. Stay off these forums because I said I was not going to mod my car.

^I completely missed the last part of his post. Dude stay away from these forums if you are truly intent on keeping your car stock, cause you won't be able to hold out on modding for long, trust us!

Welcome OP. There are some sick LS sedans on here so look around for pics, especially Candlestick Park's ride. Mine's not all that but I love her. Run away quickly if you don''t want to mod your car. The mod bug is hard to resist and when it bites, it bites hard!! Here's my girl:

LS 6MT!

I'd start saving money to replace that headunit though, they're not known for their longevity.
