Hey people,

my name is Lexxy, 27, and no, although i learned it's a chick's name over in the US, i'm not one of them! as said in my title, i'm from Amsterdam and i'm a DJ/Producer, and i organize parties and festivals.

I currently own a Nissan Skyline R34, which will get her new owner this week. Next weekend i'll be collecting my new ride, which is a manual 2003 G35 Premium, or actually officially it's a Nissan Skyline 350 GT, since it's a Japanese import.



It's still pretty dull (silver, 100% stock) but i'll be having some work done very soon. Prolly going for the white & black look: white body, black hood roof & trunk, and prolly put it on black 20's. Since it will be a daily driver i don't want to do too much engine mods. I'm saving that money to get the new Nissan GTR as soon as i can.

I'll be keeping you posted on the progress with pics 'n all!

Cheers,
Lexx

thanks guys!

@krnn1cenamja sure i can put some pics up of my R34 as soon as i get home, but honestly not much to see there, it's a totally stock black R34, even the wheels are still stock. didn't get the chance to have anything done to it due to the fact that in the 1,5yrs that i owned it's been at my engine rebuilder for most of the time (like 9 months). so i guess if you'd google images for a 'stock black R34' you'd pretty much see what i own lol

Welcome! I like the interior of your G, it comes with suede inserts in the seats and doors stock?

thanx man, i pm'ed your UK customer already about your trunk lid

@Locksmith: yeah that's the japanese version of the highest package. For some reason they don't go full leather, but to be honest i prefer the half leather. I had an Eclipse with full leather and man did i sweat my *** of in that lol..
I'm glad i got the moonroof too, cause they are really really rare on the *** versions, and i need that sun on my head man

very curious about the car...i never driven one, not even test drive, and i'm used to a 'real' skyline, so not quite sure to expect but i had good dreams about it last night lol

Nice purchase! But I am really trying to figure out what is on your trunk between the badges?

RHD is badass

Oh btw I think you're gonna miss the way your r34 drove, i mean the g35 is nice and its got decent power but nothing compared to your r34. It is also more of a luxury gt cruiser than a sports car. Any pix of your r34?

thanks locksmith..yeah you can find some pics here, including the import trip from the UK back to holland lol http://picasaweb.google.com/djlexxy.com/MySkyline#

@goodmank: that hideous stuck on thing is in fact a rear view parking camera, lol, and yes, that is a factory option! i honestly have no idea what the were on when they came up with the idea to just stick on a camera like that. it's coming off tho, in fact the whole trunk is

edit: okay wannabe6mt beat me to providing the answer, i'm slow lol

bytheway yeah i do expect a little less 'oompf' than my R34 had, but that's okay, i live in a very crowded area so i couldnt use the power anyways..and i'm also bus saving money for the R35 GTR..so plenty of power there

Yeah the R35 GTR is definitely MORE than enough power but I'm sure that won't stop you from modifying it
