Out of the R32...into the G
Long, long time car guy, with lots of cars in the past, some nicer than others. Always wanted a G35 to go with my Murano - even considered buying one before the RX8, CTSV, Exige S or IS350 I've had over the past few years. Settled into an '08 R32 towards end of '08 as the economy started to kick my ****. No need to bore with those details, I'm sure my whining is somewhere else on the web.
These days I ride 2 wheels on the street more than drive, and the boys are growing, and I've tired of the R32 (seriously fun VW though, just had a few minor tweaks and she was great). Stumbled upon an '04 G35 with only 25K miles. Excellent condition, fresh brakes (rotors and pads) and tires. History seemed clean, price was certainly right (~$11K) so I snagged her today.
Truth is, wife will drive her more than I do, preferring the Hawk, VFR, Hornet or Duc when weather is good.
But this should be a fun one to drive for quite some time. In fact, I'm hoping I just bought my 11 year old son's first car.
Minor stereo tweaks will be up first...followed by a couple of homemade billet bits here and there. Keep it stealth, simple, and reversible...
