New G Owner

Haven't had to do an intro post in a while...

I have owned a '91 240 for about 7 years, bought it with about 107k, car now has 210k. As much as I loved it, at 18 years old, it was about past its prime.

So I was looking around for a bit and decided to go for the G35. Found a fully loaded Diamond Graphite 2005 6MT with 20k. Overall in excellent shape, and i think i got a pretty nice deal.

Few pics...



Interior shot (mats were out being cleaned)


With the 240 in the background...


Picked it up last friday. Definitely loving it , obviously a huge improvement from the 240.

Edit...sorry for the huge pics...

Thanks guys! I am really loving the g (though i get a bit nostalgic at times for the simplicity of the 240).


I have been debating the oe front lip, bottom of the front bumper has some scrapes that would be covered well with a lip...guess i just need to look at some more profile shots. I certainly plan on keeping it clean, I am pretty particular with that.

I'm a new owner myself. I almost got one just like yours with a dark interior. I got the IP instead cause it was cheaper.

I would def get the front lip. To me, it looks naked.
