Ran a G35 Coupe last night
Cruising home late last night about 85mph and noticed a sports car flying up an on ramp and was already going faster than me. Peeking my curiosity I touched the gas and got next to him as he changed lanes. We were side by side doing about 90mph, so I decided to punch it to see how my 95Q would do against the brand new coupe. We ran to about 130mph and I was slowly pulling away. We both shut it down and raced again from about 80 mph. This time I let him punch it first and I reacted to it, but the same thing happened I just slowly walked away. Nothing dramatic but pulled away none the less. I wasn't to surprised but I bet he was! The old Q just keeps on pullin!
I was actually trying to buy a 2004 M45. Just drove it the other day. Your right, the M is faster....way faster off the line. I think the M would pull away from my Q just like I pulled away from the G, maybe a little more. If I get the chip like I want I think it could be a close call especially if you have to shift to 4th or 5th. I may take you up on that offer, would be a blast. I'm in San Rafael, 15 minutes north of SF.
