Getting out of the first gen group

Sold my 2005 g35x and am pretty sure I'm picking my new car up this week! Although I'm leaving the first gen scene, I still have a 2008 g35x so I'll still be here. Here are some pics:

Nothing really wrong with the car, just a couple annoying things like brand new rotors warping and the suspension was getting a little tired after 103k.

those are easy fixes... would of rather fix those problems then buys another used car. but TLs are nice though... honestly would never get rid of my first gen for anything!

I dont think I would have made that move but more power to you. Instead of warping rotors your gonna need to new tires. 260hp V6 mated to FWD? Have fun.

Shoulda got the Type-S =) I almost picked one up too. Then I saw a G35. It isn't as bad as my parents skipping out on an EX35 and choosing a Honda Crosstour instead...

You have no idea. I was expecting them to come home with either a G37 or an EX35 as they had planned for months. Instead they show up with a freakin' Crosstour of all cars. I lost a bit of respect for my parents on that night.

My wife's car is a '08 Acura TL. Solid car! Not fun race car speed like my G, but I behave in my driving style while drive the TL. Very well balanced and I like the build quality a bit more on the TL.

My 80K mile G is strong as ever, but I will be getting the new third gen G next summer or fall.

Crossfires are so ugly! Lol.

TLs are nice but I wouldn't trade my g for it unless it was an SH AWD.
