Yet another New Owner

Lurked for a while but I too have joined the ranks.

Just picked up a Pre-Enjoyed Black/Black 2008 G35S 6MT. Absolute blast to drive. Had to fly to Michigan to get it but it was worth the trip. Premium, Nav and the previous owner was kind enough to debadge all but the red S. Bought it from a BMW dealership where the previous owner had traded it in (with a second complete set of rims and snow tires included) on a BMW M5.

Only mod so far: Clutch fix #2 - Definitely worth it!!!

Can't wait to drive it with the summer tires......

Sounds like you scored. Esp with set of winter tires and wheels! Plus you got clutch pedal fixed right away so you can start enjoying your 6MT 100% immediately!
Happy New Year!

Thanks for the welcome and the tips. Glad to be here. Previous vehicles - Subaru Legacy GT - off the deep end on mods and Acura TL - modded very lightly.

In late 07, I wanted the G but got the Acura instead (don't ask). Now that I have addressed that issue, I'm looking forward to a few tasteful mods, lots of good info and driving a truly fun car.

That's cool... I was buying a TL and ended up with the G.
Needless to say, I'm VERY happy things turned out the way they did

Congrats again.
Post pics when you can!

Yea, I read about a few of those supercharged TL's on Acurazine. I always wondered how that worked out with all that power through the front wheels
