Yesterday was 1 month..new 37s

Hey guys, I'm new here. Don't mind the screen name I didn't want to think to hard setting up this account lol

I picked up a stupid cheap deal on a 24 month lease. White on black 37S Sedan 6MT* (only way I was going to get this car)

My friend, who leased me the car took me to the dealer to pick up the car with him, fortunately I was one of the only people to drive it, car had 20 miles and I drove it home. Unfortunately front plate bracket was already on the car

Picked it up 06/22/2013. Car today has almost 2400 miles
Rear wheel drive, LSD, summer tires, what more can a 23 year old ask for.

I'm one of those guys who used to talk the most sh*t about g35's/g37's. When ever I did, it was always about the x and even xs. Practicing being sideways changed how i feel about this car. Started 14 months ago when my best friend leased his for 36 months, 37s manual. Drove it plenty of times, drifted it a few, it was always 10x better then any x, xs, or even AT s. But i would still hate on the car and how panels/everything really (lol) squeezes and clutch chatter and so on but leasing this car for 24 months I couldn't care less about the car or ******* up the interior (example, spilled some redbull this morning, I don't care. In my vw i would stop and clean every drop...seriously).
btw my vw would walk a manual or auto 37s on a pull in any gear. gotta love tuned turbo cars

Ripping this G since 20 miles out the dealership. I swear guys i'm not trying to be cool, my traction control has not yet been on. with no exaggeration, 1 month , 2400miles, first oil change at 1900....Traction always off. This car handles lovely especially in the rain. Maybe the tires aren't abused enough yet. I anticipate rainy nights you guys have no idea

thanks for reading.......oh and by the way i forgot, Im lowered on H&R sports and have 15mm spacers in the rear, got it done 2 weeks in

looking for some front 15mm spacers preferably purchased from Oneighty. Ill post a WTB in classifications

Congrats?

So you got a great lease on a car that you don't really like, is slow, with a okay interior that you really don't care about cleaning? At least it's not FWD huh?

lol I wasn't going to pick up a G unless it was 200-260/month
my friend accidentally found a white/black manual S for 309. I wasn't going to pass it up

its impossible to find a rwd car with a Lsd for under this price range....well scion frs but their are 0 lease deals on it.

so yeah I don't care much for it, and its not fwd. I'm extremely happy. Another mod i forgot to mention - day 2 i took off the mufflers..not much of a mod but at least it sounds like something now

OP - welcome, and sweet sounding ride! for now at least. in 23 months please be sure to post where your G gets traded in so that the myg37 forum members can avoid it like the plague.

reason #19 why i would never buy an ex-lease vehicle. 24 months of the aforementioned treatment (read: abuse) will prematurely age your vehicle - pretty soon it'll look as weathered as Tara Reid in Sharknado.

Congratz on the G. If it were me, I would keep the TC on. Could save your bacon one day.

Well, you could ask for the sense not to do rainy donuts in a populated parking lot. Let's start there.

This is why you hear about young people getting killed or being seriously injured. I was young once and thought I was invincible. I hope we don't hear about you or your friends on the 10 o'clock news.

Welcome to the site, hope your enjoyment of your G doesn't come at another drivers (or pedestrians) expense.

YES! Drive the snot out of it, trash up the interior really bad, stains and rips.. Rash up the wheels, a few nice dents, lots of scratches, maybe even a cracked windsheild.. just absuse the **** out of it..

OP please read all of our forum rules and do your best to post accordingly. The link to the video you posted isn't allowed and has been removed. Also, only post a thread ONE TIME in the appropriate place, there is absolutely no need to post the same thing in multiple places like you have done. this clearly belongs in the Noob forum and has been moved there.

Good luck with life.

OK. You have started off on the wrong foot here RatedG. I don't know if you are a troll or just misguided, but this thread is going to be closed. If you continue to post like you have been so far, you will find yourself on the outside looking in. I'm not going to waste anymore of my time or the forum's bandwidth giving you infractions. Your choices are to stop posting in the manner you have been so for or be banished. If you are a troll, congrats because you're good at it and I hope it was fun. If you are an actual human being who simply thinks this is acceptable, I find myself in an unusual position - at a complete loss for words. No more warnings. The next time you post like a jackass you are going to be banned. I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt. You didn't deserve it. Zero tolerance for any more shenanigans from you.
