What drew me to the M35x was the extra interior room when you are 6'5 270lbs like me (thick build not beer belly) that's aplus. We almost bought a 2006 G35x back in Nov 05 when we had kiddie #1 but we wanted more trunk room so we got a MDX. I used to own a Maxima which I loved so I am sorta drawn to Nissan products.

I still have a few mths to go before I am going to pull the trigger, i am hoping to see the prices come down on the M35x before I really decide on one because the cheapest isn't always the best.
