Hello Everyone

Hello,
David from Knoxville, TN. Just started a new career and treated myself to an 09 G37x. It was a leased vehicle an the PO was apparently very **** about maintenance according to the log that was in the car... oil changes every 2500 to 3000 miles at the infiniti dealer.

Anyway, its a huge step up for me coming from an 02 Honda Accord. The most ironic thing about my new car is that the manufacture date is my birthday.

I'll post some pics when the weather is a bit nicer.

Glad to be here.

David

For anyone familiar with the South East, I'm wearing my Deals Gap hat (Tail of the Dragon, Highway 129 with over 300 beautiful curves in only 11 miles) where I spent a lot of time on my restored Yamaha sport cruiser.

I love the interior!

So, it goes well with my new profession as a PA and once the income starts to roll in, I can start working on some upgrades.

Nice ride but if I were you I would seriously consider after the "money starts rolling in", rolling the wood grain circa 1986 out of the interior.....
Other than that congrats on the cool car.
BTW great pic of you next to the car

WOW! I've gotta say that I am impressed with the level of service I got today at my Local Infiniti Dealer, Harper Infiniti.

I had to jump start my G a few times recently and had read about the battery issues here on the forums. I took it to the dealer today and explained what was happening and they told me it was a warranty issue and it would be taken care of. I was given2013 G37 sedan to drive for the day which was nice - but a much different "feel" than my coupe. Just picked my G back up and was told that they replaced the battery with a newer, larger one, replaced the VCV and BCM as well as flashed the ECM and TCM with updates. Also got a bonus and had my instrument cluster pad replaced under warranty because the edges were slightly curled.

Now.... I have to get off the forums and go for a nice long ride!

So, my wife has been looking to get a replacement for her current car and has had her heart set on the Lexus RX350. She didn't want to look at or drive anything else..... until our son brought home a rental JX35.

RX what?

;-)
