I will never buy another car without...

- Bluetooth
- Voice recognition
- NAVI (already knew that from my first G )
- Memory seats
- Car with less than 300hp
- Intelligent key
- Projector headlights



This car kicks a$$

Feel free to add the things that make YOU love the 07' G so much

There are a lot of things that might be nice to have, but to say that I wouldn't buy one without many of them might be a little extreme.

Air Bags, anti-lock brakes, yes. Navi (which I have in my car, but not my truck), I don't know. Navi on my phone might be enough in the future (though with the G35, some other seemingly unrelated features are only available with navi).

But my car has less than 300 hp, and I don't feel deprived. Bluetooth sounds nice, don't have it yet. Many of the other suggestions are hardly must haves, and I fear would bump up the price well out of what I am willing to spend on a car.

Sometimes I wonder whether my next car will be a step down. $10,000 is a lot of money.

INFINITI STYLE.


Oh and the tilting dash/steering column. I really like that.
Don't have it on the M and I miss it when I'm driving it.
And Bi-Xenon.

Eh, I'm minimalist:

Bluetooth
  • <300 hp
  • Smart key
  • projector HIDs
  • Paddles (I keep trying to phantom shift my wife's Sequoia )
  • Memory seats / mirrors
  • Split auto climate control
  • Sunroof (after 15 years of holes in the roof, can't live without one)
If I had to slum without 18" wheels or heated seats, I'd survive

I want ventilated seats, but I'll settle with just taking delivery of what I ordered at this point.
Tuesday seems SOOOOOooooooo far away.

Here's my list...

As a current G owner, I will never:

- buy a car that doesn't make me stare back at it every time I park it.
- buy a car without genuine paddle shifters (i.e. not the kind that simply prevent upshifts).
- buy a car without a CF slot in the dash.
- buy a car without RWD or AWD. (My '97 Maxima was my only violation of this rule...my dad warned me about FWD, but I didn't listen.).

The push-button start has also gotten mixed reviews for being gimmicky, but I like it...especially since I never take the fob out of my coat pocket.

Well I haven't bought the 07 sedan yet but this was my list for future car.

Nav
keyless start
harddrive (I am still pissed that you can't dump all your mp3's on this but I don't want to start a flame)
Bluetooth
Oh and it needed to be fast (my past 5 cars were hondas)

So I will be getting a new sedan in the next couple of weeks. Can't wait to rip the harddrive out and try to modify it.
