Those Bajas are the opposite of sick. My buddy was like "lets go look at this subaru" and I went along thinking legacy or impreza and sure enough 30 miles later I'm looking at a yellow baja. Needless to say we didn't buy it, I hope no one did.

And that caddy looks like an Alien head or Erica Badu's Headwrap or something.

Not worried about what it looks like to people so long as it's a blur when it goes by. Some reason that pic doesn't do it any justice. It's a gazillion times sweeter in person!

So on the note of buying and trades. Read an article on Yahoo that Gen Y whatever that means in a poll said that they prefer imports to domestic. HMM wonder why, Camaro is crappy and heavy, Mustangs are nice if you want to drop 40K or so to get one of their specialty badges, Dodge is crappy and heavy and the Corvette is generally out of most peoples price range. The Scion topped the list with VW and Nissan came in somewhere around nineth (the votes were rigged, blashphemy) but no accounting for taste.

Apparently we are not trading in for Detroit.

I'll still support domestic cars, and I still LIKE domestic cars. Won't catch me in any import BESIDES a Nissan or Infiniti. Thats as far as I go with Japanese cars. MAYBE a subaru, but thats a big maybe.

I'll go as far as to say that I think the CTS-V Wagon looks better than the G coupe. Yea, i said it. V8, 500some odd HP Wagon>Your Car.

so far I have only seen 3 people that would stay with their G35.....so I am going to have to add myself to that list....I do much consideration before buying a car...since I am an enthusiast I know a little bit about what my needs are and the cars that might meet my needs...Gas mileage is going to be a big thing in the coming years. Motors are going to get smaller but still my choice was the G35cp 6MT...this is a drivers car make no mistake about it. It will satisfy almost anyone's needs....so then I will keep it until the wheels fall off. And that will be in about 16 years as I only drive 3000 mi a year. This 4 cam motor with a 6mt is enough to put a smile on anyone's face. and with 27.3 mpg on 89 octane yet. yes I will keep my baby since I know the meaning of:
"
If wishes were horses beggars would ride."

I just traded in my 05 cts-v for an 08 g35. I really like the car. I drive that and my 71' 442. Only other car I'd want would be the 360hp m hybrid, or an S65. Both out of my price range though

I never said that the car was slow or better/worse than my car. What is the price range one a v? I know it's not sub 50k so it's unfair to compare to the g in performance. As far as it looking better than my car.........
Let's take them both to a college campus and ask every 18-24 yr old female which car is sexier....
You probably won't want to be there when we tally up the votes

I am happy to say that when I was shopping for my car that I had more buying criteria than which one would pick up more prepubescent teenage girls on a college campus.


Lets take a break from a business meeting and haul a 5 of your colleagues to lunch then tally up the vote.

What else matters?


BTW, prepubescent means before puberty.
