Alright so basically im getting my first car here in a little bit. Obviously im thinking about a G35 coupe or i wouldnt be on here. The other things im trying to decide between are an 2006 Evo MR, and Subaru Impreza WRX STI. I like speed but I also feel as if I need luxury too (which is why im leaning towards the infiniti.). I was wondering if you guys could help me out here, I can lease a new 2006 G35 Coupe for 2 or 3 years then buy it out, or get a used one around 04, or 03 and do mods. Can anyone tell me the difference vs a 03 or 04 compared to an 06? Also the only mods id do is probably cold air intake, tint ( i know i can get it and take it out), rims, and prolly like small things like new tail lights and things like that. I cannot figure out wether its worth getting an older one and doing those things or just lease a new one and wait a couple years. Please help and thank you to all.

I would opt for the 03/04 g coupe. I understand there were some slight issues with the 6mt 03, so if it were me and I wanted a stick, it would be the 04. If your getting an at, go with the 03. Im thinking there is some slight differences in the 03/04 - instruments and auto shifter. So, getting an 03/04 should leave you some $$$ for mods.Personally, I would not lease.Oh, and Welcome!! This board has been a great source of info. for me!!!

I wouldn't lease the car either, if you can get an 04 and add mods then that is what you should do. trickin' your ride out is so much fun. You would have to wait 3 years for the lease to end then continue to make payments and slowly add mods. your car would be almost 7 years old before you paid it off and had all the mods you want to add to it.

Tint, wheels, intake and exhaust should be the first order of business. And go off set on the wheels you will not be disapointed.

Be sure to look at the photos of the rides listed on Members Rides there are some good examples in there.

Have fun and remember to check here for member prices on mods and advice for installs. Everyone is very cool about that stuff.
