FNG in Ohio (Cinci-Dayton area)

Greetings,
FNG here. Bought an 08 G35X (Gray) this weekend. Awesome car in immaculate condition! obviously well taken care of. Ill post pics maybe tomorrow but it looks suspiciously like a gray G35 sedan...
Retired Navy Submariner now working in power plant construction.
Been a longtime Jeep/Dodge owner and my own personal baby is an 01 Mercury Cougar. No shock that the G car is at an entirely different level, super fun to drive.
Only problem I knew about before buying was a scratched up arm rest. I'm guessing thats a design problem and probably well known to this group...
I also discovered a problem with the rear D side brake yesterday. Not sure exactly the extent of the problem yet but something must be rubbing because its getting SUPER hot when I drive.
No immediate plans for modifications because its the wifes car, and I have my own baby for that kind of fun, but off the top of my head I wouldnt mind looking into reducing the body roll (sway bar upgrade?) and I'm curious about whether I could swap in a better stereo or not...

Thanks Urban. Yeah, working in Middletown, living in the Waynesville/Spring Valley area.
As for the radio, really just wondering if its possible to swap with another factory unit with GPS and Satellite.

I thought the factory has satellite option? Well your best bet is to use a phone hookup and just play phone music/navigation. Cheap and simple.
