would you go G or M?

The M is definitely the better deal, so from that perspective get the M. But to be perfectly honest, I don't think the look of that year's M really sets it apart from other manufacturers with cars in that segment. The G on the other hand, IMHO, is so striking looking when compared to it's competition. And I truly think the G is a better looking car than the M you are considering. Now the current year M is gorgeous, much better looking than it's competition.
I've got three kids (17, 15, 13). They all fit in the G, but it is a little tight. What does the wife say? After all, she's the boss!

So anyways, new to the forum, going to be joining the Infiniti family tomorrow, and here are my choices:
Would you get an 08 G35X with around 25k miles for $24K or an 09 M35X with around 15K miles for $29K?
Which is the better value? I'm a family man now, but still enjoy spirited driving. I've test driven both, and the acceleration feels pretty equal, but haven't taken both through the twisties. Price is an issue, but not a terrible one.
Basically, if you were in my shoes, could afford both (although the G more easily) had two young children, which would you go for?
I realize this might be slanted asking it on a G forum, but try to have an unbiased opinion. Either way, I'll be sure to let the decision be known. Thanks for any and all responses.

However value wise I'd say the M as you're getting a car that is 1 year younger, with 10k miles less, which lists I think $5K for $5K more assuming that the carfax or history of both cars come out clean. Now if there are carfax or vehicle history issues then that would affect my statement.

well, I drove a total of 12hours, about 800 miles yesterday. Went from Omaha up to Minneapolis and came back with a...... drumroll please...................
2008 G35XS with premium package. Paid a little more than I was planning, but got a great deal for my trade in, and got a great price on the G.
After test driving the M again, I wasn't all that impressed. It felt bigger and more luxurious, sure, but the driving felt so detached, the G is definetely more of a driver's car. I'm so stoked on the new ride, pics to follow, maybe on a different thread. Thanks to everyone for opinions.
