I like the old system better. The new one has all-but killed the marketplace for me 
One thing that it would be nice to retain, or better yet, improve upon (if possible) would be that it force you to select FS/WTB/WTT/etc, and also force what it's for or fits.
For example, two sets of check boxes, one for years, and one for coupe and sedan.
That way, if you have an engine component that fits a lot of years, you can check those, and then check coupe and sedan... whereas, if you're selling a front bumper, you would only click one of the check boxes.
One of my only gripes with the old system, was that people were forevermore listing body parts like "Nismo Front Bumper G35" or "OEM spoiler" in the subject line, without specifying coupe or sedan.
Again, this is just a suggestion, if it's not possible with the old system then that's ok, the old system is still better. Just saying it would be a nice addition.
One other possibility would be dividing the "exterior" sub-forum into "exterior, coupe" and "exterior, sedan" since they share almost zero exterior components.

here is another suggestion. i saw this from another forum.
Over on my350z.com they have a FS section in the SoCal section. I was wondering if that is also possible to the FS section in each of the regions. I know there are a lot of people in the DFW, Nor Cal, east coast who do not want to ship.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
I'm happy IB is concerned about what their members think about what's going on and are willing to look at making changes to keep us happy. This kind of service is what makes me renew my premiere membership even if I am soooooo frustrated with all the immature new members we have seemed to pick up lately.
Thanks guys for caring about what we think!!

As a member, here are my .02:
Keep the existing new post template. It requires sellers to put price, location, etc. so that buyers can easily see what they need to when viewing the posts.
With regard to forum organization/format, the old way was 1000% better and should be returned to. The new one is complete, and total crap IMHO.
