Hey guys just wanted to post some pics of my G which I got a couple of months ago after I sold the RX-8. I haven't really done much to it yet but I got a couple of parts coming in soon. anyways here it is, personally i really love the red Gs or the black ones but this was the best deal when I went car shopping so I decided to get it. enjoy! and yeah if any other members got a G35 please post your baby up i wanna get some ideas for exterior mods.



the shocker haha i know you love it






Tonyc402
Ah very nice and clean . How do you like it compared to your rx-8?

I believe its only me and MsKrnDoll that own a g35 coupe in this forum though ahah , so there wont be too many g35 owners postin here.

Heres my G35, right now just a Veilside Ver. 1 aero kit. Planning on getting some new rims for it this summer.

aww really i was hoping to see a lot of Gs since this is kinda a korean site and where i'm from a lot of koreans drive Gs. but yeah man ur G looks awesome specially cuz its in black lol. i was thinking of either getting a greddy gracer kit or the kenstyle kit cuz im trying to get one with fog lights built in.

The G has a lot more power than the RX-8 but I do miss the high revving rotary engine and the sound that it makes. The RX-8 didn't have leather seats so it wasn't too hot in the summer or too cold during the winter haha. but the G overall is a better car for me i think.

I also bought a red rx8 before I sold it and got a g35. I'll post pics whenever I'm not feeling lazy although methinks I already posted them.

I see you're from MD, are clear bulbs for the sides legal there?

clear bulbs? umm the bullbs just can't be blue or red (or some random bright color). but other than that im pretty sure they're legal

but thats such a coincidence that we had the same car and bought the same car haha. how do u like the g35 compared to the rx-8

Hm... I need to dig up the regs on that.

Compared to the 8... Handling is of course sacrificed; felt like a tank after the switch. Gas mileage was a bit better on the 8, although I'm sure that was because the 8 was an '07 model in '08 (I'm getting 19mpg w/ the G). Better visibility on the 8. Smoother ride on the 8. Gauges are much more cooler on the 8.

Leather heated seats on the G is cool, the looks (unless you go all out with the MS bodykit... I only had the MS wing) is better, exhaust sounds decent but I've changed mine out... And I think that about sums it up.

i would get the rear fully debadged. looks clean to me. also get rid of the side molding?

You might want to reduce your signature size as it is against the rules so far but nice ride.

well it's not like a G is a "high end" priced vehicle nor is it a rarity by any means which would make sense as to why it's common, especially in the LA area so....what's your point?

That instead of opting for similarly priced vehicles ie. 3series, TT, A4, etc. All the douchebags bought the same car.

Ya they are similiarily priced but they dont give out the same performance to what the G35 or G37 holds .

Based from the Audi , BMW websites.

For a 2009 Audi A4 3.2 FSI : 50,900 MSRP @ 265 HP

For a 2009 BMW 335i Coupe: 50,600 MSRP @ 300 HP

For a 2009 Infiniti G37 Coupe :47,700 MSRP @ 330 HP.

These prices are from the Canadian websites btw.


I understand and also agree that G35/G37s are common , but theres a reason for it . Its just a better bang for the buck.

seriously quit your hating. is it that hard to just congratulate a person who was able to purchase a new car? im pretty sure if you did and a person comes along and says bull crap that is unnecessary you wouldn't appreciate it. I dont know what kind of a narrow-minded world you live in but G drivers are not the only d-bags.

You should contact memoryfab.com. They can probably get it and refinish it if it's not the right color.

Montreal

there's actually quite a lot of people driving rwd cars here even though we always have a lot of snow during winter. also there's a new law that makes winter snow mandatory now... as for me...i don't care how "advanced" are the new stability management and whatnot, i still prefer driving a fwd because of the seasons i get here..

if i was in the south, then that'd be a whole different story
