New IP 06 G35 6mt

I bought my Ivory Pearl, wheat interior, 06 G35 coupe on march 7th. I can’t say how much I love my car and everyone else. It is definitely a head turner.
I came from a 99 Mazda 626 that I had since sophomore year in high school. The engine blew after 217K miles so I decided to step up and get my dream car a week ago. A lot of people really think the car is worth more than what I paid for it because it’s such a beauty. The G35 is in a class of its own.

After finishing college in Dec 05, I got a job as a Software Engineer at RedPrairie Corp. My first purchase was not a car but a lot of my friends and coworkers that graduated around the same time bought brand new cars when they got there first real job. Subaru's, Evo's, Acura's, BMW's, etc... None of them bought a G35. Two years later and a couple of promotions I make around 74K. I gotta say, now I have the best looking car out of the group. BALLIN!!!!!!

I've wanted a G35 coupe ever since they came out. The mileage on the car when I bought it was 11,451k now it is 12,866K. That is a lot of miles for 1 week but I have been driving all over the place. Is that natural? Every time I leave the car I look back at it and smile it’s almost like it talks. (JK ) Must be the new car syndrome! When I see other G35’s on the street they are always looking and nodding. G35 owners must be family.

I’ve been dating my girlfriend for 4.5 years now and she loves the car. She always wants to ride in it. I want to teach her how to drive manual but not in my new ride. I was thinking about renting/borrowing some car to teach her so she will know how to drive just in case I wanted to have more than a couple of drinks at dinner or during a party. Anyone taught themselves or your partners how to drive manual in the G?

I would post pictures but I don’t have digital camera at this time. I’m waiting to buy my Nokia N95 phone so that I can have an all in one device. I like things that are simple.

When I read through a lot of these threads people are always saying watch out for the mod bug. I don’t think I’ll be doing any performance mods. I may put light tint on the windows and buy a double din unit that has GPS because the car doesn’t have a navigation system. I do have GPS on my blackberry 8820 and the Nokia N95 I am going to purchase also has GPS.

I know this is a public rant about my life but I am so happy to be a G35 owner. Thanks G35driver.com (please fix the server so that the downtime doesn’t happen anymore) I felt like my family left me.
