Any reason not to get the M?
I have not even had my first oil change, and I'm thinking about the M35 Sport. In my situation, it would be about $200/month more. (M45 not an option)
I've read through the M section of this forum, and can not find any negative feedback. Is there any??? Sounds too good to be true.
Any buyer's remorse G vs M? I realize the G is more agile, but possibly not comparing the Gx vs the M Sport.
Thanks!!!
Geez - might have an M by the end of the week...

I've not heard anything negative about either the 35 or 45.....if you don't mind the extra green, you'll love the ride.
G/L shopping the M.

Nice. Not one bad thing. (like rattles or what ever)
Man, am I glad today was Sunday. If there would have been a salesperson, it would have been one serious impulse buy. I typed this thread right when I got home. That LP sport was was so sick. It took me a couple of hrs to stop obsessing.
~ time passes ~
ABQ you're right. My 06 is sweet. I can't complain about a thing. I guess I should give 'er at least a year. I'll prob just give 'er a personal touch & do a couple of minor mods. I'm gonna order the Grubbs Euro spoiler (w/o the brake light) I know you're in the market. Once it's on you're more than welcome to check it out in person.
M - Enjoy your ride. Know I do. One of these days I'll be posting in here...
Thanks guys.

Now that would be real nice....
Post up the spoiler when you get it. Maybe Tom will get one too for his G.

Since I have both in my garage, I thought I'd throw my 2 cents in...
I'm comparing two '06's (G35x vs M35x).
The interior of the M beats the G's hands down. Fit and finish are excellent and the M's interior is beautifully put together. It feels like a substantial car (for $51K, it should) and seats four in extreme comfort.
The M is definitely a road car, while the G is a sports sedan. I use the G to knock around town in (almost bought a coupe), love the AWD, it's crazy quick and it handles the dirt roads in Santa Fe without a complaint. The M has road trip duty. Anytime I'm going to spend over 2 hours at a time behind the wheel, I grab the key to the M. This car rocks on the highway (equipped with Nav, intelligent cruise, etc.)!
I've driven the G35x ('04) in deep snow, about 10-12", and it handled it without any hesitation...snow mode is awesome. The M feels "lighter" in bad weather (snow/ice), not as sure footed as the G. It could be the tires, both stock, Bridgestones on the G and Goodyear on the M. But, if I were traveling in a snow storm, I'd feel more comfortable in the G, as I would romping up the mountain to ski! The M just feels "sloppier" in the wet stuff, constantly struggling to keep traction. The G doesn't miss a beat.
The problems with the M have been a "buzz" from a rear shelf speaker grill and the gas tank had to be replaced (didn't fix the problem, still have to hold the nozzle to gas up the car). My '04 G35x was plagued with rattles, while my '06 is rock solid so far (knock on the M's wood trim!).
It's a luxury having both cars, but if I were to chose the "perfect" car, it would be a G35x with navigation, and I would not regret my decision.

Thanks for the responses. A 6MT would be sweet. I wonder if they'll end up with a 6AT as well??? That would be smooth.
jcd: best of both worlds. both cars. nice
M: best of both worlds. one car (M45) nice as well.
Spoiler should be in this week. I'll link to the pics once it's done.
