My friend just got one. An M35 fully loaded. Just plain sweet and the interior makes my G feel cheap on the inside when I get out of his car and get into mine.He let me drive it. Seeom ok. i didn't get on it or anything because it only had like 12 miles on it. But it was a smooth ride and felt rock solid.

 

Your G probably felt more agile tho ..... and with the weight difference, the G would be quicker too.
The M is nice tho, whether 6 or 8 cyl.

TNX for the thoughts. Maybe when your friend's M is broken in nicely, you could compare speed and agility feel to your G.

i am in love with this car.. as a sedan its the best bang for the buck.. just look at it.. i love this color combo.. black on redish/brown leather.. ahhhhh pure pimpin.. panties dropped before they get in the car

 

If I were to get an M, I'd probably go with Ivory Pearl Exterior....and black interior with silver trim. But that's just me.

 

I saw/sat in an M for the first time last weekend in Puerto Rico.
Amazing Machine- I couldn't believe how improved the interior was from the G, and even 05 Gs. Even the material on the glove box was super soft. The dash looked very expensive and very intricate, as if a hundred Japanese surgeons made the buttons, woodwork, etc. It all felt very expensive and nice. I didn't get to drive it but I definitely came away impressed, as did my girlfriend. It really has me second guessing the GT-R; it will be difficult to say no to that kind of refinement.

Also, something I noticed was that the interior is much better than pictures suggest. Especially the wood trim. I'm not sure why. I didn't care for the orange leather interior, but the black interior was nice. I have no idea why Nissan never brought over their offwhite interior with piano trim from Japan. That would have to be the nicest interior on a Japanese car, ever.

They wanted $76k for a base M45 sport though lol.

 

Wow! It's only like $49K here for an M45... I sat in the M when I was getting my G35x and although I liked it, I thought it was WAY too big which is good for some, not for me. It was too wide and I knew right then I wouldn't want that big of a vehicle. Even the G is a bit big for what I wanted but I've become used to it because it handles REALLY well for a car it's size.
