Hey, just checkin' in, just got into an '08 xS black on black about 2 months ago, windows are 35% and i blacked out the grill thus far, that's it.
So who was cruisin' up hwy 10 about 8am going through elk river this mornin? Looked like a black '06 sedan possibly, with tint and nice wheels, looked like it was dropped also.

Let's see some pics of the ride! But to your inquiry, the only person it might be that I can think of (on here) is Josh (1FST35) but I don't think he's dropped.
I'll get pics up soon also.
So the tires are stockers from previous owner day 1, assuming since i just flipped 30k, and picked it up with 26k on it. Who has the hookup on good guy pricing in the twin cities area? North suburbs would be even better.

20 on average, 92 octane mostly if that matters what so ever. I would consider myself a 50/50 driver, commute from downtown to Elk River is all highway now, but i get off the main roads to light it up ALOT. Most recently I was tormenting a Saleen Mustang, who i'm pretty sure has huge HP on my G. He was about to walk away had the road not run out on us. Fun though.
^I almost took down an 02 Porsche 911 in our old 08 x Sport. He didn't even get in front of me until over 70mph.
Car looks good man! Our 08 was black but interior was stone. When i upgrade in the spring, i'm going to find an IP sport.
Where did you buy your car at? i feel like I have seen a black on black X sport for sale somewhere.

I probably average about 21-22ish for normal driving around town. With the weather getting colder though, I'm averaging about 19-20.

ride height needs lowered, maybe Eicbach's, just starting to read about all of that, but with the amount of snow we get it will stay stock until spring most likely.
and 2, the paint is rough. I have 2 issues that really need addressed. Scratches and hazing where i took off the infiniti on the rear.
Got it from Lupient Infiniti on 394 about 2-3 months ago.. I love everything about the car except for 2 things:

Good to have you in the club! We will be very good friends once I pick up my sport 2nd gen.
Nobody else in our little club has one. Maybe fanyan will pick up the sport bumper for his X though?
I'm fairly sure the stealership didn't buff anything when it came to this car, a quick run through the wash is all..
I wouldn't mind paying for a good detailing, one key scratch from the previous owner on the door is long and deep, well i won't use THAT description anymore, but you know what i mean.
And that hazing from where INFINITI was is horrendous as well.
So, know anyone that has the right tools and time to kill?
and, are there not that many XS models around?

Dude, the dealerships absolutely FAIL at buffing so yea, your paint will probably need a good weekends worth of detailing to clear it up. I am absolutely appalled at the job they do when detailed. It is horrendous.

But the lease went up last spring so we no longer have it.

I will be, however, adding an 07 or 08 G35S come spring.
Won't be an X, but close enough. 
And I do detailing actually. I would be more than happy to do your car. Might be a good idea to wait until after the winter though so that it will be shiney and good for summer.

I'm actually pretty happy with the journey front just going to get a front lip and slam it, might end up picking up some Sport Side Skirts as I thought they were the same as the Journey but they're not but mods will be a while though I'm trying to get back into school and modding the car is the last thing on my list at this time.
Wannabe, your sig says Fargo ND/MN, are you in the twin cities? and let's talk about the detailing. These 2 things are really bugging me on the car, would love to have them worked out asap.




Pictures to come later.
