Just traded G35 for G37 and props to oOmikeyboy!
Quick story, sort of -
Last week I stood in my driveway and contemplated the future of my G35 coupe... It was 6 years to the day that I purchased one of the very first fully loaded, Brembo, 6-spd G35's to roll off the boat in Los Angeles. With 128,000 miles on the odometer, I was in a struggle to either keep it and buy a nice Benz to cruise around in and just tinker with the G. Or, be true to my roots and bust the new and improved G37.
After a while I got onto the myG37 forum and started reading your comments on the car and checking out some pics. Before long I came to oOmikeyboy's slammed OB G with same bad a$$ wheels and I was instantly hooked!
Went to the dealer the next day and picked up a fully loaded OB 37 for invoice price, plus a $2k rebate, and they even gave me $8300 for my G35. I couldn't believe it!
It was kinda sad to see the G go but it was one heck of a car. 128,000 miles, no problems, ran perfect, even had the original clutch still. Only had to replace the cd changer and the driver-side window motor.
For anyone questioning the value of these vehicles - look no further!
Looking forward to rapping with you guys another few years!

Only mods to the G35 were Eibachs, 06 19's, and K&N filter. I know, kinda boring.
Taking the 37 in Friday to get clear bra and Eibach pro's installed. I'll look into exhaust, intake, pulley's, and maybe a chip.
Thanks!

HA! Thanks Mikey, and everyone else! That pic is TIGHT!!
I love the SSR GT3 wheel but I don't think they'll fit. Probably look into Works and Volk's.
