Hi G Family,

My name is Tiffany Fleming. I was born and raised in the beautiful state of Florida. Sarasota, Siesta Key beach to be exact. I grew up building big blocks with my Father GM 454 and 502. I had Dodge Viper's and 70-74' Cuda posters on my walls. My Mother frowned on me being a gear head, but learned to appreciate it over the years since I'm the one who works on her truck now . After my best friend, my Father passed in 2000 I needed to re-group and find myself. I moved to Louisville, KY in 2001. At that time the cost of living was less expensive than FL and I noticed the car scene was larger here.

I restored British Classics; Subeam Tigers, Austin Healey Bug-Eye Sprites for a bit. I then started a car lot of Miata's in my driveway, lol. They're so easy to work on, super dependable and fun little go-karts to drive. I also went back to my roots and snagged up a few rare Dodge Dakota R/T's, and then with the loss of my job last year before Christmas all my toys had to go. I lost everything, but one 2001 Miata LS. After the loss of everything a miracle happened, I got the job I've always wanted. The first thing I did was celebrated and traded my Miata in, and bought a 2005 Infiniti G35 Coupe.

I've never owned a Infiniti before and I have to say this is one of the best cars I've ever owned, and I'm one happy mama'.

Well, that's me in a short version . I don't know any other local G35 owners. I still live in the Louisville area. I would love to meet others. I could sure use some pointers as I'm a noob to the G scene. I did do my first oil and spark plug change yesterday!

Don't be a stranger - Add me on FB: Facebook.com/TiffanyAFleming

Thanks for having me!
-Tiffany

Lord, I would have given my eye teeth to have done that! I just had a few odd sports cars in high school and after, 1969 FIAT 850 Spider, 1964 MGB (12 coats of read lacquer and wire wheels), then my first NEW car was a FIAT X1/9 in 1977. I would have KILLED for a Sunbeam Tiger. or an AH 3000 MKIII.

Welcome to the group!

Welcome to the group!
I will find some photos of the 66' Tiger. It's yellow and still in the family. The MGB's are real popular here. Fiat's are neat and I can't say I have seen too many over the years.

Here's my 64' Valiant Signet 200 that I had to sell. Hopefully it went to a good home.

In his defense where he is is like 76 hours behind where we are so he's a little off with his humor.

Thank you sweetheart!


What is a legit site for aftermarket parts for our vehicles? I'm not talking about body kits and all that. I'm looking for performance adders. Also, a nice front lip would make a nice addition to my kiddo.Thank you
