Stolen DC5 Turns Into A G35 (Pics of Old and New)

Over the last few months there have been a large number of thefts and break-ins of RSXs in my area. Mine was one of the first. It disappeared out of my driveway in the middle of the night and was found over two months later in another state, partly stripped.

It took me almost four months to figure out my next car. Once I found it, I used the insurance money and a small loan to pick up an '05 DG 6MT Coupe.












Within the first week of owning the G, I logged just over 1000mi, removed the "G35" off the rear, got the windows tinted, ordered clear corners and all season floor mats. Although I loved my RSX so much, it seems like a toy in comparison.







So much more to come.

Unless your RSX had forced induction, there's no way it's faster than a stock G.

You must've mistaken the RPM gauge as the speedometer.

All that matters to me is that I have a fun car again, and I love it!




BTW in your sig, "guest" should be spelled "guessed."

RSX can be just as fast (if not faster) with bolt on's and tune.

Welcome to the boards the sarcasm runs thick around here but it is all in good fun, I hope the G will be residing in that garage from now on unlike the RSX.

Happy modding G35Ian
