New G Owner

Whats up everyone I'm a new G37x sedan owner. This is the first Infiniti I have owned. My previous cars were all Nissan, Honda, Toyota, Acura. I've had the car for 3 weeks now and I can honestly say I am quite happy with it. Would have preferred the xS but I just couldn't justify spending another 7 grand on it for mostly cosmetics, rims, spoiler, seats, paddle shifters. Here are some pics from the day I picked it up until now, when I put the tints and decided to take a nice picture near the George Washington Bridge. Cant wait until the spring time to start adding my personal touches to it. Hope you guys enjoy the pictures (they were taking with an iPhone)

You'd be surprised the number of people who buy the G37xS Sedan and think they're buying a sport model, like it was the Coupe xS. So good for you doing your homework.

Although those sport seats really are worthy. Not $7k worthy, but still...

Welcome to the forum. I have a question for you, what is the density of your tint? I have the same car (dark graphite) and was thinking of tint and didn't want to go to dark. I like the way yours looks in the photo.

Yea I know, I did a lot of reading on this forum prior to making my decision. I can't agree with you more on the seats! For that price I can always buy them from a wrecked one and invest the rest of it on all the other things I plan on doing to the car.

Thank you, I currently have 5% in the rear windshield and 20% on the sides. I might tint the front windshield 50%, but I am still not settled on it.

Mike, you & Chris both need to get Premium memberships just so you have the extra space on your sig lines for all your upcoming mods (and that's just the mods you've got planned before the New Year

Thank you, I really did, went through a ton of posts, numerous test drives and then did some more research.. lol My progress will be slow and steady but will definitely turn heads if things go the way I plan them to be. BTW your car looks great! I especially like the GTR style taillights in the back. This is one of the mods I am probably going to do on mine, when I get the headlights redone.
