The G coupe has massive wheel wells, so you can go up w/ 19's for starters. 9.5 front, 10.5 rear and go with aggressive offset...you will love it.
Good luck

lol they're pretty bad for what they are, i think a vette gets better mileage.
i get about 15-16L/100km. and that's keeping the revs at 3000 or so. i do give it a boot quite often as well. i wouldn't' say i accelerate slowly.

LOL I have a tape deck too... with one of those aux wires sticking out of the ghetto casettes, at least your audio system sounds good 
To put in a double din what do you need to do? It looks like that silver trim is just one piece upwards of the ash tray?

The entire bezel needs to be replaced from the shifter upwards. it's quite expensive. kits normally go for $200-$300. and it's a ton of work to get it out, you have to remove the shifter. the bezel for the shifter. the radio bezel the fans and the clock.

Tape decks are only for the 03-04 the 05 doesn't have it.
the 05+ has a much nicer interior. but i wanted the brakes

that interior isn't too bad imo, but the 05+ is definitely better.

kekek the interior in the Manual G35's was a complete afterthought.
that little thing where my glasses are, is where the cup holders go in the automatic cars.
the cups in my car go in my arm rest.
there are also some cup holders in the doors. and behind us
