Manhattan 6MT sighting, 33rd and 7th..

I could be wrong on the exact location but i'm pretty sure thats where i saw it. i came in from nj to penn station then started walking up 7th to gray's papayas ($2.45 for 2 hot dogs and a drink, god bless them) and into times square.

so i'm walking up 7th with my girlfriend and it had to be around 33-35 that i saw a silver 6MT parked on the side of the road. it seemed stock to me from what i could see...stock 18's and brembos.

i was just wondering if it was anyone on here...how does the g handle in the city? any problems with potholes or insane taxis?

oh by the way, just as i passed the g i come up to i guess around 36th...a yellow 360 spyder pulls up to the light --- my dream car (but not in big bird mode) the guy was in a nice suit so i'm guessin he's got some dough but he looked no more than 30 years old (i'm only 20 hehe) so he's a pretty lucky guy..

I bet you're still tasting those Gray's Papaya hot dogs. They are good, but man do they linger! Anyway, that wasn't mine, but I have taken mine into the city. You just have to be a little more careful. Not to mention, you have to drive aggressively in the city which I am a little skittish of when driving the G! With my truck on the other hand, yeah, it's fun!

Re: Manhattan 6MT sighting, 33rd and 7th..

it handles well in the city. i was born and raised in the city so it makes the driving that much easier since i am use to it. but the acceleration on the car definitley helps a lot. ive gotten myself out of alot of jams cuz the accelerator is so sweet.

I HAVE A NEED... A NEED FOR SPEED!

Re: Manhattan 6MT sighting, 33rd and 7th..

i love driving in manhattan, never had any problems with my sentra...definetly no problems with my G, i drive pretty agressive (but not stupid) which makes it more fun. i never really drive during rush hour though...mainly cause i'm stuck in traffic on the northern state.

i always park it in a garage cause people think bumpers are MEANT to be hit when going in and out of spots.
