hey, im just seeking some advice, im in kind of a dilemma and wondering what kind of cars you guys would get if you were me. I had a 350z that i recently sold, i loved that car but i couldn't really live with having only 2 seats. Im currently looking for a G35 because i get the power and the looks of the 350z along with the luxury and extra seats but i wanna know what kind of cars you guys would choose as an alternative to a G35? i've had some alternatives brought up such as a TL but TL's i find are quite large and not very special(too average) unless its a TL-S or Aspec. I took a look at an altima coupe but was so un-impressed i didn't even bother test drive it. i did like the push to start button though haha

What cars can you guys recommend if i wanted a car with looks, power and luxury? Something that turns peoples heads and can lure my eyes away from a G35 haha

ps: sorry if this is the wrong forum to post this on, im new to this

m3

[blackk]

hahah something a little more affortable, max say around 25gs if thats even possible

[Jackwimmer]

cant really beat a g35 at that price
i had a Z too and im prolly gonna end up buying a G lmao
can't think of anything else to buy really, a 335i or something would be nice but it's a big price difference

[blackk]

haha yeah im hvaing quite a dilemma, i guess a G35 is really the only option for that price range. not sure what else i could really do. I took a look at hte new mazda3's 2010 but even than LOl i dunnoo.. thanks for your input so far guys

[prelude_prince]

Beemer 335 Comfy, yet powerful. Not sure about looks though lol

[Culture_Vulture]

the ones that come to mind:

TL-S
IS-350

[ELITE_TRAYUNZE]

You can get a 335 for 25 g's?

[Ikkaku]

doubt it unless there's major damage on it

[orange7]

m3

oh.. since you've put it that way, G is the only thing that comes to my mind

[03aspec]

aspec tl's = win... i cant stand the g35's interior, it was the deal breaker for me.

[mmmk]

Being a G35 owner myself...I would get an M3(e46) or 328i/335i

[124Y]

I would get an M3 if I were you, but a G35 is more of a head-turner.

How is driving the G35 on a daily basis? when i test drove one i found it was very soft and easy to drive but not as fun as driving a 350z. But i figured i would enjoy the G35 more for night cruising or driving long distances since its comfy.

i guess i should just wait it out for a nice G35 to come along, ive been searching high and low but i cant find any worth buying. i was just getting really anxious to get a car, feels wierd living without one. Oh yeah does anyone even know how much an M3 would cost for an N driver? i heard the insurance is as expensive as it gets on those cars, thats what makes me second guess them. the 350z was already expensive to ensure i cant imagine

[asian_XL]

a real head-tuner is an RX-7

[StylinRed]

it sounds like he wants to keep his g35 as his main ride and having a second cheaper vehicle thats also cool to look at.... i'd get a Mini or a Celica (im biased with this one but the Celica just looks sooo awesome i fall in love again everytime i go in my garage), or a Mustang or the new Camaro

[ilvtofu]

E39 M3 just because they're so tempting, but they're probably not anywhere near as comfy as a G35, but I like the look of the 3 series better maybe a used S4 but horrible on gas

[asian_XL]

^ what is E39 M3?

[!LittleDragon]

The previous CTS-V

[jlenko]

Pontiac G8 GT

[billboa]

The previous CTS-V
if u can get a decent one at that price then i say go for it before the infin, those cts with a nice grill and rims look sooooo fuckin ballin....

[ilvtofu]

^ what is E39 M3?

LMFAO I totally fail E46

But maybe E39 M5 :haha: those are sexy and cheap but unreliable i heard

I think the suspension on the G35 is more or less the same as the 350z. My car is lowered on 19"s with thin tires, so it's a bit stiff. Although the G35 has 4 seats, I wouldn't suggest sitting 4 people in the car all the time...it's tough getting in the rear driver's side seat.

I've driven my car to Whistler and Seattle before...very fun to drive on long trips!

Insurance for the M3 for an N driver will be costly, guaranteed.

[q0192837465]

G37? how much do they run for?

[shenmecar]

For 25Gs. If you don't mind the trouble.

Lancer Evolution 9. But you gotta import from the states. Now that will turn heads just because there are so few.

[Meowjin]

you can buy a g8 gt for 28k.

[Gh0stRider]

go for a g35

my 350z insurance was 3500 a year, M3 would probably be 4 5grand eh?? G35 sounds awesome haha well if you recommend it ill keep my eyes on G's. :thumbsup: i just wanted the extra seats so that i can bring a 3rd person if i needed it.

I would love an evo9 but they are too hard to obtain. The dark grey evo that was being sold on here was beautiful but 31gs was a bit costly and it was already sold haha.

G35 ftw, TLs are pretty common. Not saying G35s aren't but TLs are a lot more common then Gs

E46 M3's were about $2700-3000 I think? they were quite expensive to say the least..

Base TL, yes, TL-S? No

[BrendanS]

Base TL, yes, TL-S? No
yeah sorry thats what I meant. Even base TL is a really good looking car. Their nice, the TL-S is even nicer. But I would still rather have a G35. You can't beat that exhaust note;)

[!Yaminashi]

Agreed:thumbsup:

[kayceeee]

Can't go wrong with a G but to be honest the back seats are there but don't expect much out of it

[yellowpower]

nah i like g35 more than g37, looks more solid imo

[yellowpower]

the back seats are hard to get in but they're alright once you sit down

[pandalove]

IS350 mod it up

[Jackygor]

I wouldn't go M3, very expensive to maintain after 3 years. G35 seems to be the way to go.

[blackk]

agreed, the exhaust note is amazing. dont even need music when u got that :D

thanks everyone for your opinions, M3s are definately out of the picture now because they are too hard to maintain and pay for.

[Harvey Specter]

The only E46 M3 you're going to find for under $25,000 is a 2001 or 2002 and I would stay away from both years.

[pandalove]

i'm telling ya man... get an 08 IS350 .. if any are still around .. drop it .. put an ings body kit on it ... change rim to te37 ..stick in a exhaust.. it'll turn heads and u will go fast

[Ferra]

Just got a 335i M-Sport
Not a head turner, but very comfortable and the driving experience is amazing.
It got all the power you need starting at 1500rpm and seats 4 people comfortably

Sport/M-Sport pkg seems to make a big difference in terms of driving experience.

[1990TSI]

gen coupe V6 for the new car option, otherwise G35c

[Harvey Specter]

He's looking for something under $25,000.

[maxx]
