just made the switch

Just wanted to say what's up, I just made the switch from a 350z to an 04 G35 Sedan, needed something a bit more practical but still fun. Looking forward to starting over with mah G.

Needed the room, otherwise I would have stuck with the Z. Sadly I went from a 6MT Z to a 5AT Sedan but I was on a time crunch to get a car... getting out of the Marines, going cross country in a few days etc. Got a good deal on it so it is what it is. I'm gonna miss the third pedal but I'll still manage to have some fun.

this is the dealer photo, it's been raining out here all day so it's the only pic I have. White on tan leather, has the dinky lil 17s which definitely need to go.

lol more like money money money...i remember when i first got my sedan, i wanted to put everything on it. If i was starting over again i'd definitely tackle the body kit first..nismo sides/rear before i get into any performance mods

It's definitely a blank slate, I'm always the other way around, I tackle driveability before I start in on the looks. The only reason wheels are that high up on the list is I don't think I can fit Brembos or the Akebonos behind those wee little wheels.

right on, good luck over there man. The sandbox is definitely not a place I will miss. Keep your head down and shoot back... a lot.
