I've had it almost 24 hours
 
Bloody amazing car.

The forum is great. I love the way we all share our experiences.

I'll post pics this weekend.

God, its so hard to keep this thing under 4000.

Nissan have made a Brilliant car. The skyline is in a league of its own. Thank god I didnt buy the new 3 series or the Lexus IS250. Thank god.

The new 3 series blows away the G35 in handling, steering and feedback. It's not even close. Performance is pretty comparable if talking about the 330. Too bad it looks so ugly I could not live with myself if I had to look at it every day in my driveway. Enjoy your new G and post some pics.

I happen to think that the new 3 series (sedan) is a great looking car...it's the interior that's horrifying. Bland and boring compared to what's out there...and the price is utterly ridiculous. I mean a loaded 3 series is 45k! Invest that extra $10k (+/-) and you'll have a G35 that handles better than the 3 series and will probably outrun the M3!

Ok,

But, a 330 with min. option is gonna run me $40g's at least. And to have the most boring looking car I have ever seen.
The 325 loaded with what my coupe has would be at least 36k and have 215 hp, you would really have to be extremly vain and have a need to say you own a BMW. Its a car for 45 plus adults who have at least 2 kids and think thay are driving a fast car. I owned BMW motorcycle, A GS650, first single cylinder bike to be fuel injected, it did nothing but surge and not start. Worst bike I have ever owned. BMW started building bikes before cars I believe. Thet cant get a bike right yet, what can that possibly say about their cars.

All I can say is that I've owned 2 Nissans/Infinitis and 2 BMWs so I'm completely unbiased. I had lost count of the squaks and rattles I had in my Maxima and my brand new G. I never thought interior was all that in the e46 until I recently jumped into a G again - and in all honesty, even the 05/06 interior looks plasticy in comparison.

As far as the e90 styling, I can totally agree with you that's why I have an e46. How much is a loaded G? $35k? I thought a loaded 5AT runs over $40k, correct me if I'm wrong.

And btw $10k will not be enough to outrun and outhandle an M3, not even $15k if you want to do it right. But enjoy the G for what it is, the 330 may do some things better but what is function without looks :)

Geeze, is that an understatement. 800 miles to go for me and it's driving me insane that I can't get on it. I told the dealer (a friend) that I'd be out in front of the dealership at mile 1201 laying a set of bacon strips...:D

fully loaded 5AT sedan ran me ~36500 before TTL. i got it for 300 and change over invoice so MSRP is over 40k.
