My New G37

Hello All! Realized I posted this over in the Audoi-Video area, when I meant to post it here.....

I picked up my new Pearl White 2013 G37 Coupe about a month ago.

And wow, I love it!

Originally I was out looking for Audi TTs, but found this gem and couldn't pass it up. G37's had been on my radar for years, and I've gone out and looked at a few cheaper (sub 15k), but was never impressed. The difference I believe was that this G37 was in great condition, White and had the slate interior, instead of black which I had usually gravitated toward. The white and slate make it look like a higher class, more luxury vehicle. I think this every time I am parked next to a black G37 (3 times now), mostly because the black shows everything.

All said, I got the car for $21,000 with 32,000 miles. Certified pre-owned. The dealer had replaced all drive belts, rear brakes, turned the front brakes, and installed new shocks all around.

Today I took it for a buff and polish. They did 3 passes with various grits. The car is sooo smooth and shiny now. Looks better than my wife's new car!

Well. Just wanted to pop in and say hi and share my story.

Next up is the stereo. Two JL RD900/5s, 4x JBL GTO804s, and a completely active 3 way setup is in my near future.

Of course!
I should have taken some today. She is so shiny!

I'll definitely be posting pictures of the stereo install. Keep an eye open for that.

Congrats on the pick up! Always exciting. I have a sedan in white with the slate interior and you're right - definitely feels classy! Only have had mine for about a month and a half and I still get that giddy feeling every time I get in . Can't wait to see what you do with her. Lots of stuff on the forum to make it your own

Thats one thing I like about my car. There isn't much of anything I want to do to it. It looks so good.

A great stereo and some additional sound deadening and I'm in heaven.

Randy, it was a base package. I couldn't justify another 5-7k for a car with a navigation I wont use, a premium stereo I'll replace and a moonroof I hate. I still get all the fancy bits like keyless door locks, keyless start, automatic seats, heated seats.

Can't argue there. I use my phone (Waze) for Navigation. I find myself trying to use the sunroof but I forget it is there 99% of the time.
