I'm surprized no takers...

I guess i have to contact magazine, inform them to contact Nissan by their channels and find owner through dealerships, if possible.

I just want to address example of the candidates.

1) Previous owner of BMW or Mercedes

2) Enthusiast who has high profile as profession

I was down the Los Angels area last weekend, my friend of mine who has daughter graduating high school this month told me that G35 are No.1 choice among her classmate. ( i guess they voted which car to drive after graduation) When was last time teenagers pick Infinity over the Porsche, or whatever...And beleive me she goes private school and their dad have a money to buy the car for them. This kind of story what i'm looking for with actual owner's voices.

My deadline for article is coming, and appreciate your help.

Best regards,Kohei

I replaced my leased 2000 BMW 528i by buying a G35 6M/T coupe in February. Unfortunately, I live in New York, and I know you're looking for someone on the west coast. If you decide I can help, let me know.

Dear Bluestreak

Thank you for reply.

Magazine's editorial office already sent request to Nissan and inform local dealers for introducing me the owners, but you are the type of a person who's i'm looking for interview. Would you be interested to talk to me over the phone/email?

Best regards,Kohei

PS: I took Skip Barber 2days advanced driving as well, 4 days with Bob Bondulant 2 years later.

how about some sedan love here?

I have a Sedan, am an enthusiast, unfortunately I have no high profile (jsut a chemist) job, and didn't have the money for Mercedes, BMW or Porche but I did test drive some 330's and 328's from last couple years first.

Oh yeah, try over on 6MT.net and G35Driver.com there are some other guys there who have autocrossed in there G's

Me, I have only been to the dragstrip a couple times so far for R&D data.

Good luck

Dear Kohei,

I think I've set up my profile to allow private messaging, so if you send me a private message with info for a phone call or e-mail of questions (e-mail would probably be better, as time difference and work schedule will make a call difficult) I'd be glad to respond.

Blue streak and others:

We disabled PM's, because leaving them enabled would often lead to memebrs PMing their questions to each instead of posting them, making for a less useful site.On your prfile you can leave email function enabled which will allow members to email you, via your NICO profile w/o seeing the real addy (or having to bother typing it)

Hope you guys dont mind.

I'll be in and out taking picture of G35 as well as interviewing owners, but i really like to include you for my story. If you can send me pics of your car as well as yourself (attached digital photo is ok) would be great too.
