So I upgraded from a 96 Dodge Ram 1500. The paint had leprosy, it went through a quart of oil and power steering fluid each week. The A frame bushings were shot, steering box shot and the power steering pump was shot. It left oil stains where I parked it.

I now have an 07 G35 Sedan and love it. I was considering a 350Z but since I have 2 kids that was out. I think I'm addicted.

I upgraded to a G35 sedan 5AT from a 2002 Mustang GT convertible. I do miss the low end V8 torque of the Mustang and the convertible sometimes. The G35 is by far a better car IMO.

I had a 2000 SVT Contour.

Awesome car. Never had one mechanical problem; only issue was the fog lights that never seemed to work. Withstood many accidents and kept me safe and sound. The last accident was its last though and I drove my girlfriend's 98 honda civic around until I found Rutland (my '07 G35S sedan).

Obviously an upgrade, but I absolutely loved that Contour. If I could've stopped cars from running into me, I would still be driving it.

I came from a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. I loved that car but a frontal crash, which was "fixed", cause huge electrical gremlins that couldn't be found so I sold the car. I turbocharged it and ran a 12.6@111mph. It was my second grand prix.




While I consider the G an upgrade for sure, I really do miss the GTP.

A couple recently. Traded it a 5 speed 02 WRX wagon which I was driving since 7/01 for an 08 G35xS Blue Slate/Graphite, with Sport, Premium, Navigation and the splash Guards. Obtained that car on 6/25/08.

On 5/30 I traded in that car for an 09 G37S Journey Sedan, Liquid Platinum/Graphite, 7 Speed, Sport, Premium, Navigation and the Splash Guards.

Having driven nothing but manual gearboxes since I bought my 83 GTI brand new (other cars 87 16V Scirocco, 98 Prelude) I really like the auto gearbox on the G's.

I went from a '99 Chrysler 300M to my nice '07 G35x. Um, I'd call that an upgrade. I have always been a Chrysler guy and have worked for them, on a dealership level, forever but one of the things that really impressed me falls under the category of "fit and finish". Very impressed.
