Im sure I can get my 280hp around there with simple bolt-ons if needed.
Already paid for... will take delivery in about 4 more hours!!! :D :D :D

Thanks kyriian. :smile:
Actually, I was originally looking at the diamond graphite (darker silver) too...but
when I compared them side by side with the bright silver (which isn't that
bright...), the graphite color seemed boring because the headlight housing is
very similar to the diamond graphite color and just weakened the impact of
the front lights.
...so that's why I went with the bright silver.

Thanks, Dan!
discodan - Yes, from what I hear and what my dealer told me as well, there were issues with people complaining that the Brembo pads dust too much,
wear quickly, and costs too much to replace for a lot of people.
They claim that a lot of these G35's and G35coupes are leased...the
users get hit with high 'operational cost' which was not appealing to the
drivers. not sure how much of this is true...but I didn't care; I wanted
the Brembo's. The 05 that I compared my car against did not have them.
I bought my G35C, plus Im use to all those wear items above, so its not
an issue for me. :smile:

i just realized my G had it's 3rd birthday on the 17th.
i already gave her some nice shoes in June (new front wheels/tires)
so i think she's set. kind of a repost, but just wanted to celebrate
my other hobby car's birthday.
can't believe my MCS is going to be 5 next month... they
grow old so fast... but looks brand spanken new.

having fun.
I still remember my sales guy "Dave" cracking up when we were out
test driving my G coupe while my wife was sitting in the back seat
8months pregnant. lol he said most people sell their coupes
when they're ready to have kids. hehehe.
my kid has yet to come along on dad's drives. he has sat in the
driver seat once though. he looked like this =>

Very nice ride...got some pics from the side? I'd like to see the rims a little better. They look like Ace Allure's which were on my list when I got my 5Zigen Gravis-1's. Ace Allure's are an awesome wheel none the less...
Ironically, the G35, G35 coupe, and Acura TL were all on my list when I was looking. Ended up with a Speed6...now that it has been a year, I wish I would have gone with the coupe. Next time I guess...

both my G and MCS. i let him touch the steering wheel (well, barely
the bottom part that he could reach), and also the shift ****.
i asked him about that the other day and he said he still remembers
sitting in dada's cars. he's going to be 3 next month.
if i do ever let my son come along, i think im going to get the recaro
gray seat for my MCS. but these cars are my 'private' time
away from kids and everything else in the world so not sure yet.
