It was ether Car and Driver or Road and Track they were testing the new Max and they said the G35 now holds the 4DSC (4 Door Sports Car) title that the Maxima has had for many years. Bad news for Maxima owners but nice news for G35 sedan owners. But on the plus side it was said that they liked the engine on the new Max alot. It was like new life putten in the Vq35

I don't know what it is but the other day I went back to Nissan and they are trying to sell me a 2k4 for about 27K with a trade in on my 2k that has over 120k miles on it.
I thought that I was upside down and they showed me how I wasn't upside down and that they could get me out of my car the same day and into the new Max. I was tempted but I still haven't drove the car yet, because I think if I do that I will wind up buying it (for my wife). She likes the car but I don't want to trade the 2k because I'll finish paying it off this year, so I'm probably just gonna keep the 2k and buy her the new Max. We had previously went to Inifinti and test drove the G35 but they are at 35K and I wasn't ready to purchase one at that time. I wanted to give Nissan some time to work out some of the bugs in the G before deciding and then they came out with the new Max, so now I have a dilemma but keep in mind it's not for me, it's for her. I figure just get her the Max and save me some money, since she likes both of them anyway and she's used to fwd not rwd cars. I wonder what you guys think I should do. Just to put something else in the mix, I've also pondered the thought of just buying the G coupe (after the trade in the 2k) and probably buying her a 2.5SE Altima and keeping the G coupe for myself. I just don't want to be paying for 2 cars at the same time even though I could swing it, maybe just keep the 2k and get it turboed. Help me out fellas

yeah, i drove a g35 coupe 6 speed before my local infiniti stopped letting people test drive the stick, and that thing hauls...the exhaust is sweet, rumbles nice and deep when accelerating but is dead silent at cruising speeds. the new max, i dunno, i would say go for a 2k3, and save 6-7 grand, get a better looking, better performing, better built (not in the US) car

I might just pay off my Max and try and get the one with 24K on it if it will still be available. I still have to get my wife a new car regardless of what I want to do for me, she'll be first.

Actually fellas I think I'm slowly but surely making up my mind on what to do about my car situation and here's what I came up with:
G35 Coupe on 18's is probably definite. What will make it definite is if they (Nissan/Infiniti) offer the coupe in a Convertible model, then it is definitely on. I saw the Z roadster Convertible and it looks tight, I'm thinking if they do that to the G then I'm in love and I'm keeping the Max (gonna pay it off this year). I'm trying to come up with reasons not to give my wife the G (even though I promised her a new car) so I came up with some lame @$$ excuse about the G being RWD and she wouldn't be able to drive it because it handles differently than the FWD that she is used to and been driving all of her life. You think she'll buy it, if not what excuses would help validate me keeping the G for myself other than just flat out telling her forget the promise I made?

i think you may have screwed yourself by promising her a new car. once she sees and drives the g she's gonna want it.
