Need your opinion on my 1st g

I have a 2000 acura 3.5 rl since 2003 which gave me no problems at all, and i'm a little bored with it. I have a chance to get a 2006 6spped m g35 for my birthday. The g is slightly smaller then the rl, but it's a 6sp m with 298hp, and it has nav, compared to my 225hp rl. Should i make the switch?

Yes you should. Above all RWD > FWD

ummmm.....not unless you know the motor is solid. Keep in mind you are on "G" forum so expect everyone to tell you YES. I would make sure the engine has a good history of oil changes at 3,000 miles. Get a full service history from infiniti for everything done to the vehicle. Get an autocheck report NOT CARFAX, mechanic inspection / compression check, and a body shop inspection, Make sure there is some sort of warranty for at least 1yr on it. The specific car you are looking at has a HUGE TSB due to faulty motor design which leads to oil consumption and possibly seize the motor. Do your research of what to expect for maintenance cost. The G will cost much more than the RL and just look at the cost of tires every 30k miles.

^^^^ +1

Always be as objective as possible when buying a car. But if you've test driven it, and you like it, then...

I hate FWD. It's either RWD or AWD for me. So I say just do it, but check the G35 carefully before you make the switch.
