My last vehicle was a 2006 FX35 Sport. I won't bore everyone with the other 46 vehicles I've owned in my life...I am 37 years old. We currently have a 2007 M35 Sport and a 2008 G35.

This is totally true. I and my family have always had Hondas, and while they're rock solid, they are a bore to drive. I just traded in my '07 TL 5AT w/Navi for a loaded '07 G35x. Other than needing to have the rear brakes replaced (I saw in another forum that the VDC has something to do with their wear) the car drives like a dream. The TL was very nice in terms of the fit and finish, but I would say the G35 is as good/better.

If you're considering a new car, you should make a list of all the little things you like and dislike, such as where certain buttons are placed on the console. They seem minor, but they can make a big difference in your overall driving experience, especially if you drive a lot (my commute is 110 miles roundtrip). The luxury factor of all of these cars is comparable, in my opinion; the real differences are the way the cabins are laid out.

I went from a 2008 Maxima to a 2004 G35 Coupe.......I'd say its an upgrade and a downgrade......Upgrade to the outside and a downgrade to the interior strictly because my Maxima is an SL with all the Options and my G35 has the Premium package but they weren't offereing the Bluetooth and Aux connection back in 2004

'04 Acura TL to '08 G35x. Loved the TL, no problems with it, great sound system. That said, I love the G35x even more, if just for the driveability. The sound system is a bit disappointing, and there aren't as many places to store things in the cabin, but damn it's a lot more fun to drive.
