I love getting hit on in my G. quickest way to get over a girl is a new girl in the G. lol im just trying to mimic the new toyota commercials where they say "safe" or "saftey" in every sentance. oh yeah get another G.

alright stay G man.

LMAO, Kareem, you crack me up. If I get another G, I'm going to have to have to save up another $5k or so to mod the damned thing. Intake, plenum, exhaust, suspension, mechanical LSD, and probably some new wheels (great, the wheels alone will cost more than half of that...).

I love the G, but the platform is so damned expensive to mod...gotta pay to play, huh?

You know what, buddy? I'll get a plane ticket, just to come beat you up!!! lmao

No Honduds for me. Factory FI platforms are just more mod friendly than the G is, but I'm not thrilled with the Legacy for modding purposes. It will be like what I did with my I30. I pushed that car about as far as it would go, then realized that the platform was NEVER going to do what I wanted it to.

I drove a very lightly modded G for 2 years. I'm not about to buy another one and drive it in stock form, otherwise I'll get sick of it and sell it and buy another turbo, awd, 4 banger lmao. I sound like I have ADD.

Suspension, spacer, grounding kit would be necessities immediately. The mechanical LSD and the exhaust could wait, I guess.

Actually, if I wanted to go really crazy...hehehe. Dream build:

No more VQ35DE. hehehe. Something smaller, stronger, and FI (turbo)
Torsen LSD
Coils
Widebody
AEM Shallen CX
Dry carbon hood and trunk.
Race seats

Save your money and buy something fast from the factory.

I did and I'm WAY happier than I was with my G.

Better yet, save your money. You're gonna need it, those gold diggers come along every 15 minutes like a city bus.

But for real, buy my G...it'd be a win-win situation for the both of us :)

When you are talking about a car's qualities to drop one's pants, you shouldn't use words like "threaten", you should use ones like "offer". Come on man, be a salesman!

oh come on nate. The new Gs are faster than what you had last year. If you want cheap speed, get a 2011 GT. not the same quality as a G but its fast and handles well. Or maybe a Vette. or maybe, a double bacon sandwich on lightly toasted jalapeño ciabatta bread. what are we talking about again?

Sorry, buddy. If I go much over $20k. I'm buying the 06 Evo MR SE with 19k original miles. No track time. One "old" owner. Which is fully built and putting down 580awhp on E85 and probably mid 400s on 91. $26k... Thanks for the offer though. My priorities are a just a little skewed right now. :biggrin:

This is the 3rd push for that car. I can't see myself in a Furd any time soon (unless it's simply to be one of the first tuners to "whore-out" my car for free s***). But I'm going to be nice and go look at one when they hit the lots.

I'm really trying to stay under $20k and used. I have a prequal for upto 535i pricing, but I can't really afford that unless I just rent a garage and leave the car in there (probably have to sleep in the car too, cuz I won't be able to afford a room...).
