What to buy? First car!!! G35, 330CI or others?

I currently drive a 1999 Honda Civic SE; which was given to me by my parents. I am one year out of university and am finally able to buy my first car but of course I am having trouble deciding since I'll probably be driving this car for at least 5 years I want to make sure I make the right decision. I want to spend about 25-30k. It'll be a used car, and I have so far just come up with two cars, 2003-2004 G35, or a 2002 - 2003 330CI

I would like your opinions on what car I should get the criterias are:
Prefer to be a coupe (but doesnt' have to be)
Excellent acceration
comfortable for long rides (I still drive back to university to party)
Entry level luxery
Something that'll make me smile in windy roads

I appreciate your opinions

I say a 350Z would be what you're looking for. Nice acceloration, good handling, not exactly "luxury", but can be made to look real nice, and not as expensive as the G35 or BMW.

Thanks for the responses!

The 350z did come to my mind, but I wasn't seriously considering it because of the two seats; but then again when else am I going to be able to drive a two seater, certainly not when I have kids...and it is a nice car...maybe I'll drop by a Nissan dealer

As for the M3...it's a really fun car to drive...but more than the 30k I am willing to spend, unless I get a '99 or older model, but I don't want to do that

Keep the responses coming!

Well I just looked at a few webpages for both the cars you were looking at it looks like the BMW is the best bet outta those two. But the 350z is def. a nice car. Lots of aftermarket stuff for it to...
