Hello New G35 owner

Not sure if this is where to introduce myself, but here goes

Just picked up a new ( to me) Red 2004 G35 Coupe. I Evolution they had at the same lot, but after test driving it and determining the tune was horrid & the car wasn't worth the asking price, I asked what else they had with low mileage & they pointed to the G35...
Single owner has only 17,800 miles on it and all stock. Has the premium package, Bose sound system, Dual climate, ( from what little I know) it is pretty loaded and included the 18 " premium wheels and a completely unmolested stock motor.

as a bonus when I popped the trunk I found an OEM brsa & car cover that were included. overall for a 9 year old car this thing was ****!!!

Few pics I took when I got it home & as soon as I learn the community here better I'll post up more.
This car was bought to replace my beloved DA integra which I love without words, but decided to develop a rod knock a week before I start my new job up in SF forcing me to go find a new ride... This is not my first NISMO car as I had previously owned a 84 300ZX shelltop that I sadly wrecked a couple years back. The DA is going to sit ona non-op until I source a new motor, so my pretty new G35 is going to be the daily mobile while I get the Integra back in shape for the commuter car.

Anyways, GLad to be here and look forward to learning more about my new ride

Follow up on other thread

In response to thos who replied to my other FNG thread here

it got closed as I pulled a noob move and posted in the wrong area...

@ most responses thanks for the welcome

@ livinglegend - yea was a sweet find , 6MT ( I hates me an automatic) going rate on an 04 with super low miles at kbb.com was 20-21k dealer 18-19k private.

I'll also apologize to the mods for posting in the wrong area... as many forums as I am on and have moderated as well, I should know better.

No plans on this for now... have a desire to finish up the DA integra before I go tearing into the G.

If I were to project what I'd do longer term... DC sports header.. kinetic down tubes and Borla exhaust for starters

This paragraph....^....is exactly why you need to do way more research before modding anything on your beautiful LR coupe! They're all bad choices or don't belong on our coupes.
