88 BMW M5

The thing I like most about the G35 is that it drives like a modern version of that car:
- well-weighted steering and transmission
- torquey six cylinder that revs pretty high (although I miss the smoothness of the S38 and its scream at 6500 rpm)
- good weight distribution

...with modern conveniences like multilik suspension, ABS, traction control, air bags, and an extra gear

Technically I had a ’96 Saturn SC2 before the G, but I don’t really count that car since it was only for 6 months and it’s still my husband’s daily driver. Before that I had a ’96 Civic that was totaled.

Yeah...the IS300 was definitely short on the back seat leg room. Honestly, the main reason I got the G was b/c the baby seat wouldn't fit in my IS without my wife's knees literally touching the dash....just became impractical after 3 and a half years of enjoyment!
