I just might have to trade in my G35 for one of these things! Infiniti sure has stepped up its game in the sport luxury category.

I can attest to its spriteliness, - I love my M45 Sport, and have read of 0-60 times anywhere from 5.3 to about 6 seconds probably depending on conditions, elevation and other variables. LIkewise, the 1/4 mile time varies from 13.8 to low 14's at 100+ mph.

For a 4000 lb. car, it's very quick, but the ride is so much more that raw speed. From my experience and taste, the M epitomizes luxury, ride, sport, tech., aesthetics, with a good dose of speed and WOW thrown in for good measure.

It's by fare the best and most expensive ride I've had, but man, is it worth every penny.
A real Gem.

I call BS, but mostly just because I am jealoused. I testdrove one of these monsters are they are definitely very fast.

 

I am seriously looking in to an upgrade to this from my '03.5 Sedan. I have been following the release of this thing, and it seems to look better and better everytime I read an article.

I wonder how I can get this thing, and still keep my payments roughly the same ?? A little more on the monthly payment is ok with me though!

How do you do it?

 

ANd so mixed... how do you go from an M3 to a 540i... then to one of those hatchback Si's... VTEC much? Love my prelude, but... man.

 

And is he paying retail and trading them in. Hope not - I bet he's a car dealer or has one in the fam or buys used which saves thousands if you like to move in and out of yer car so fast.

 

Actually, I'm just a regular young person who loves cars and can't help trading in a car when I see something else I really like. It's a very expensive bad habit, and I'm really trying to slow it down.

Yes, my history is very eclectic. The M3 was my favorite but after 2 years I didn't feel it was worth a $1000/mo payment. So then I went to the other extreme by getting the economical Civic Si to try to save a few bucks. But I wasn't happy driving this so I slowly made my way back to a car I love to drive...the G35.

Maybe you guys can help me out by regularly reminding me of reasons to hold on to the G35

 

If someone like APS announces a turbo kit for the M45, my G35 is goooonnnneee!

You are definitely anything but a REGULAR young person. A REGULAR young person (depending on how you define young) would do well to afford one of the rides listed in your history, much less all of them.

Oh - and according to your list, after you tired of the $1K a month M3 payment you didn't roll into the Civic, you rolled into a BMW 540i. Then the Acura before your G. Your explanations don't keep order with your list very well... Hmmm.

How old are you? You say you're young, but at one car per year you're at least 30 unless you started buying cars at 14 with money from your paper route...

Why don't list your 'quiver' horizontally rather than vertically? If I listed every car I ever owned (over 40 here) in a vertical list then every time I posted it would require a new page. Imagine if we all did it...
