Alright, the only downside to having a new car......the OCD is coming out in me. I went into Walgreens "real quick" to pick up my prescription and there were 2 people in front of me and it was taking entirely too long and I started feeling all of this anxiety that someone was going to park next to me and ding my door. It has begun......

Haha, I hear you. In the year and half I had my car I was fortunate never to be dinged, but this time around I am prolly gonna buy the PDR package just in case.

How is the 4was?
Funny story, so this morning there is a Mercedes 500SL in front of me and it actually changed lanes and slowed down to wait for me to catch up. There were 2 guys in the SL and they were totally checking out the G and then we caught a red light and they tried to race me. Since I'm in the "break-in" period, I didn't go all out, but man, it sure was fun.

Not sure really, but the car definitely handles well around corners.

Maybe a combination?

Mine is going to look like that. Only differences will be the 5AT and no 4WS. I hope you are enjoying the ride and attention.
I'm in Europe on a business trip and my car is supposed to come in by today. It's going to be an even longer trip home tomorrow.
Even if it comes in, I won't be able to pick it up before Tuesday. This is the first Labor Day I wish was in October!

How about some pics in the sun? Is it a nice shade of purple? Amethyst is the color my wife wanted most to see, but we have yet to get a feel for what it really looks like. I ordered Platinum Graphite, and it is very nice and dignified for a gentleman like myself, but isn't really a "fun" color.
My Z was Lemans Sunset, which is a beautiful shade of orange metallic. Lighter than the murano orange color, which is like an umber.
Infiniti doesn't have colors like that, or I would have gotten one of them. The amethyst is the only wildcard in the bunch, although I like slate too.
I joked about the Z being "Traffic Cone Orange".
After almost dying in a wreck in a BLACK celica on a dark stormy night with the power out and no traffic lights...
We got hit in the side by a speeding driver who blew through an intersection. The car that hit us was a 1970 Ford Fairlane, a heavy car. The 2000 celica saved our lives. After he hit us he took out a telephone pole. He was new to the area. He survived.
Bright colors are safer colors. Ivory Pearl is probably the safest G37 color.
If the amethyst looks good, I am thinking of buying her a G37.
