Just how many G's are out there? I never really noticed how many are on the road until I started researching for new wheels. Just one short trip to the beer store I saw 6! On our cul-de-sac of 18 homes there are 4, 3 sedans & of course the nicest of them all, our coupe.

You should be proud! Great car!!!! And, no offense taken Cause my oldest son (24) is older than you.

I don't think I'll ever out-grow fast cars!

Don't want to - can't make me.

I think we're ALL proud of our rides here, maybe even more-so for you SVT,. You've got an awfully pretty driveway there with his-n-hers G's. Color me green!It would sure be nice at our house since everytime we go somewhere it's always a discussion on who gets to drive.

If you really want to know...

There are 330,627 coupes and sedans out there starting CY 2003 through this November. The sedan becomes increasingly popular each calendar year relative to the coupe (on average between CY 2003-2006, the sedan outsells the coupe 1.6:1). An exception is 2007 in which coupe sales dropped with anticipation of the G37 where the sedan has outsold the coupe 3.15:1.

I live in a city with a population of about 2 million, and I have had my G for over a year now. I can honestly say in that time I have seen about 3-4 other cars on the road.

R A R E.

At least for now.

Here in Ann Arbor (population approx 115,000, 32% being students at University of Michigan) there are 5 or 6 on campus alone, probably an additional 3 or 4.

And where did this term niconaut come from all of a sudden? Makes me feel like a Russian cosmonaut but not from Russia and not going into space Nicostanian going into cyberspace........or something like that. Use your imagination.

Interesting... where did you find the stats? I'm surprised the sedan was only outselling the coupe by 1.6:1! From what I've seen on the road I would have guessed 4 or 5:1.I must say it's kind of cool... meeting another G on the road, looking over at them looking over at you. Kind of a brotherhood of good taste!

We have some of the world's most beautiful beaches, and you guys know our women are among the world's most beautiful and sexy, Carnival, samba, Copacabana, Ipanema, Cristo Redentor, Sugarloaf Montain, et.c, etc.,.... but, in a city >6.5 million, I've seen only about 3-5!
