Unlike in pics, live the chrome lip works with Platinum Graphite perfectly - clearly the designers managed to take away the massiveness with all the detail in the rear-- a Bimmer design trick (like the side window treatment) but done even better.
This car is soooo much fun to get to know.

Eventually I found and took the the time to do the voice training tutorial and have stopped cursing at it- its not rewarding as it doesnt understand and just hits you back with a random State, street or tel no til you have to pull over to stop laughing.
Best, today with a few miles on, I found a back country road, dropped the windows and got on it some. There is another car in there with a new sound and more cornering and straightline performance than is obvious from a car so comfotable and refined in normal dirving.

One thing I hadn't noticed before is the dimple in the lower part of the rear quarters. The more I stand and look at this car the more lines you see. Gives the car even more character.

Hey, Sedanman & ChuckG35, the cars look sweet !!!! 
The G35S I bought was the dealers unveiling car so you could say I have one of the first Sports made.
What is the birthdate of your "baby"? Mine is 09/06.

When the sport spoiler is added, is the only time it looks a little out of place to me.
I also wonder how it would look in more of a satin finish....

BTW I took my date as Sept. 6th, never thought of Sept. 2006. I must look again.
