Welcome to the G community! You have a rare G there if it's 6MT. Any plans for the G?

Haha

I'm pretty sure I just broke my android . I was trying to fix the camera with one off of Ebay and after I took it apart, I realized that the cable provided wasn't the exact same as the one I was replacing. Needless to say, the put together didn't go as planned, and my display isn't working now. I actually may be getting an Iphone, but, I'm going to miss my android.

I'm in the midwest U.S. (Missouri). I had to drive 5 hours to get this vehicle. I've been looking at G's for a long time now, and after much research (awesome community here) along with other forums, I've decided that if I'm going to get a G35, I'd prefer the 6 speed manual with navigation and premium. Lucky for me I found the last model G35 that was produced. 2 months later and now I own it.

Officially it's been 2 days and I have zero regrets so far!

As for now I need to do the 60k maintenance (at 67,500 now). I plan to change the differential oil, maybe the manual gearbox oil, cooling system flush, maybe brake system flush, and change the battery as well as the fob battery. I also need to buff some minor surface scratches, but all in all, it seems to be running really good. The clutch feels a little weak and I'm not sure if the clutch slave cylinder needs to be looked at. It shifts relatively smoothly though and the clutch pedal is working.

Your gonna love it man! 6mt is the only way to go IMO but regardless a nice car. good luck avoiding the mod itch but let me know if you have ?'s bro. Good luck with the new car- piece of advice take the traction control off and go for a good ride to get a good feel for the car before you decide to speed around like andretti or something!

AHHH, I think I failed and do not have the tech package. Oh well.

My first purchases include a ipod adapter piece for the, new to me but used, iphone 4s I should be getting in the very near future. This along with isimple adapter that should allow it to charge. I also went ahead and bought the apple composite av cables and a 4gb compact flash card for testing purposes. Finally I added some CR2032 batteries for the fob. All online ordering so we'll see what happens here in the next few weeks. When I get the phone I'll see if I can get some pics up here.

Thanks everyone for your kind words and warm welcomes. I love this car so far!
