I'm still viewing them, but so far these pics rule. I wish our Nissan dealership was cool. The people are idiots.

Thanks Rob.That is about half of the pics that I took.I had my NICO shirt on and just acted like I owned the place.All the people there were cool.I drove the Maxima, Spec V, and a Murano.The Maxima is real nice and the Murano was awesome.You know how I feel about the 04 Spec V,It was no faster than mine and I didnt get to drive the one with the $1K Brembos.A very fun day.They gave me a 03 2.5 Altima that was loaded(leather and all) to drive as a curtisy car(It had mad hail damage).

A very nice car.I did not like the skyroof over the sun roof because it did not open.The power is there and so is the torque steer.I did not get to drive the 6-speed w/ leather because the Nissan rep had it.LOL I hate the grill but I also hated the OEM 2k+ Altima grill(but grills can be changed).I would most likely get the G35 over it thought if I were to get something new.

No I haven't yet had that pleasure.I did bate the hook though while at the Infiniti Dealership.I talked to one of the salesmen and told him that if I could talk my wife into trading in the Altima that I may be looking for a G35,Q45,M45 or FX35/FX45.So the next time that I go I will most likely take one or more for a drive.

They let me just take the Maxima and Spec V with out any one going with me.I doubt that I would have been so lucky with a Z or G35.

I can not have the Z(I need 4 seats).Maby the G35 coupe.If I do trade in the Altima it would most likely be for a G35 sedan or maby a FX35.No real plans to as of right now though.Im still very happy with the Altima and the loan is getting paid down so I'd rather not start over.LOL

yea i know the feelin, i still have till o6 when my altima is paid off, so i got quite some time to go, and she's still very good condition, and she's at 28,5xx miles, so its lookin like im in this for hte long haul i suppose, i probably wont get a newer car (whether it be new or used ?) until atleast 2oo9 or so, then i should have some money saved up to get something nice

I'm not a fan of the infiniti cars, but I do like the G35's. They are very nice and the interior is pretty nice as well. Overpriced, IMO, but they are nice cars. I liek the 3.5's.

i see ur point bout being overpriced, however their quality and luxurioousness is easily on par iwth lexus and acura, and they're cheaper as well, not to mention, neither lexus nor acura has anything as sporty as the g35 coupe, teh CL type is is cool, but i by far like the G

Not only the size but the layout and materials are better also.;)

i agree, the interior on a well equiped G35 is much 'nicer' than the one of the touring model, the track model doesnt even have leather

The Track is all GO.That heated leather is heavy.;) Personally I'd rather have the extra weight (not that its that much).

mines fully loaded minus the nav screen...well my dads :(

lol but yeah, it's really really roomy IMO, and has lots of pep

all for 33.5 which i thought was a killer deal

we're in the DC area, more expensive usually for cars here
