New wheels for the drive to and from work!

Wife and I sold the Xterra as there was no need for two SUV's in the household! After a lot of shopping, dickering, and farting around I drove this home.



Car is pretty darn clean for an 03. I like everything about it with the exception of the wood trim, thank goodness it is only on the shift knob and door handles. This is a MUCH better way to get too and from the office than that boring ass xterra!

Sedan is actually lighter then the coupe. Sedan is actually useful. Coupe barely has a trunk and the back seat is hardly useful. Might as well just get the 350Z if you ask me over the coupe.

My wife and I are expecting our first child in May! Back seat access and functionality is a must. If I want to feel unique I will drive my boosted GA16DE

They are stacked in the corner now waiting for warm weather. Does yours have summer or all season tires?

No sh*t.... I noticed they changed that mid 03...... It actually doesn't bother me given the mechanical condition of this car. I had the VIN and called the local infiniti dealership, they gave me the scoop and the owner had done all of the reocmmended maintenance at the correct mileage.... Made me feel better about this particular car and is the reason I purchased it.

im a big fan of g35's........but if theres one thing that bothers me about the 4 doors is the rear end! the tail lights look so tiny and it just looks like they kinda gave up when designing the car back there.......its huge. other than that i love the car and normally i like the 4 dorr version of many things (save the b15 se-r ) but well done and enjoy.
