Picked up my 06 coupe, new XM antenna??

Finally after 6 months and 500 posts later I can say I am proud new member of the Infiniti G35 family!!! Some of you might remember that I ordered my car on October 1st, as part of a group buy for 700$ over invoice ( this may not seem like a great deal now, but it was done before the 06s were even out ). The time I spent on this forum has educated me a lot about my car and I feel like I know this car as if ive drive it for months. Thank you for everyone who helped me with question and info. Picked up my car on Dec12th, and man I know what you guys have been talking about now. This car is so much fun to drive, and not to mention all the gadgets to play around with like intelli-key, bluetooth, and nav. I am still getting used to the drive by wire throttle, in very low speed traffic sometimes the car tends to jerk, but I am sure a little more time driving will fix this. I didnt have the time/opportunity to take pictures in better daylight so these will have to do for now. I got the clear bra installed last nite and plan on changing out the fog and city lamp lights this weekend along with some tint. There have been lots of pictures of 06 already so I am not gonna post more of the same, but the XM antenna does appear to be lot smaller than the 05 antenna. Heres my baby, 06 DG 5AT sport/premium/aero/nav/xm:

looks like the one after market satellite is selling. That's exactly the size i want. I opted out for this radio since the atena on 05 is so big and ugly.

Thats your opinion, I am happy with XM and Sirius doesnt carry Houston traffic.

Hey, congratulations tomcatm! I remember you and your group buy and how you waited. Good things come to those who wait. You should have had enough time to evaluate what you want to add to the car from all of the posts. Enjoy!

I wanted Sirius with mine... I'm in the process of switching it over. Gotta rip up the antenna cover and everything.
