Both of them should have just waited.
What speed were you going at?

I hate when people just bolt out not looking!

Just out of curiousity, why do you regret getting a G37 instead of a 335i? Anyways, glad you made it through the accident with no serious health complication.

The 335i is much more expensive the G37. The MSRP is the same as the G37 with Premium and Sport.



Any pictures yet?

I was perfectly content with my day driving around town like a crazy G-man.

Thanks for ruining the rest of my week 'cause now I am going to be dead scared to drive over the speed limit (not that you were doing that).

P.S. Glad to see you made it out alive and have fun with the rest of your life :-) ie you only live once.

Hey guys, sorry for no pics yet. My brother-in-law is taking forever to come over and get my camera. I am bed-resting until my back pain goes away. Kind of sucks sitting in the bed all day. My medication just simply knocks me out so half the day I am sleep. The Insurance Adjuster called me so the process has already started. I am going to my lawyer today to see what else we can do.

To set the record straight, I never said "I regret" getting a G37S. I love my car and it has been the best car I ever owned period, especially with safety features + I am a infiniti guy, this is like my 7th infiniti.

The reason I was talking about payments and getting a 335i because my friend has one lol. I was originally going to get one before my G37S but, I did not like the options and negotiations that the BMW dealer was doing plus I had a long wait for the 335i with the options I wanted. When I went to my Infiniti dealer, they were just pulling in their first shipments of the G37S on the truck. I was so impressed with the Obsidian Black G37S that I bought it on impulse. Meaning, the dealer was not budging on price since I bought their 3rd one. My lease rate was not what I really wanted but, hey that's what I get for trying to be first in my area.

I can definitely afford alot more (I really wanted to get a BMW 550I 6MT) but, something about the G37S just did it for me. Now that the hype for the G37 has calm down, the lease rates are better and Infiniti has some good offers now that I would have saved at least another hundred or so on payments.

When my friend bought home his 335I with Black Metallic and Saddle Brown leather, I was just pissed because he bought the same car I wanted with the same configurations that I wanted. He is only paying 15 dollars more than me a month. BMW lease rates > Infiniti lease rates. I am still thinking about getting another G37S. I am going to do my homework this time before I buy another car off of impulse and make sure I definitely get the best deal for the money. Right now, BMW and Infiniti are offering very good lease rates. It was not like that in August when I bought the car.

Yeah buying a car is like buying a home. Just take your time and see whatever you like the most.

Glad you are OK. Do you mind posting some pics of the car, if you happen to have any? I'd like to see how much exterior damage resulted. Sounds like the G37 took a good lickin, and you emerged mostly unharmed.
