Nice garage, your parents should be proud.
Be careful racing with your parents Mercedes.

Maybe I should seel mine now then. I don't want to lose a bunch of money on it. I had forgetten about the G37. That will put a damper in the old KBB value.

i did the same thing, this was my G which i loved -

and heres the new ride which i picked up two weeks ago, and btw, the metallic paint on this car is much better than the OB on the G- i took it up to San Francisco and back at 90mph for 5 hours and NO rock chips! this car rocks!

Potty_Pants · 05-03-2007, 11:19 AM

Nightops,

I traded the same car and also getting the same car...

difference though is the interior... went with beige.

KBB means nothing. If ur car is a 6MT they are selling for over book all day as long as its in good condition. (auto, well thats another story)

Potty_Pants · 05-03-2007, 11:38 AM

mine is auto... and 15k miles instead of 39k suggested.

its great to hear they are selling over bluebook.. but i doubt that is to dealers... hell this one nasty dealer was going to give me auction - 2k price (translated 25-2 = 23k for my car which should be 27k) i ran out of the place.

The shifting time on the F1 shifters is dissapointing, huge delay.

i love the 55 engine from Mercedes, its just plain crazy.... but ur right itll be a nice tight race with a proceed 335, specially if u got some wide tires in the back.... and of course if u go further with the mods then yea itll be a sure win each time it goes up against the CL 55

fv17 · 05-03-2007, 11:46 AM

I guess I'll join the club. Also going from G35C to 335i.

Nothing special about my G though....kept everything stock for the most part, save clear corners and a couple of headlight mods.

335i should arrive any day now....

Potty_Pants · 05-03-2007, 11:48 AM

so all you freaks who switched from the G35 to 335i.... what are your reasons ???? obviously you were in the market for a new car and the g37 is going to be out soon.... so what lead you to the 335i ?

ppp

I agree...
that is the same reason I'm making the jump as well

What's funny is there are a lot of Black G's being sold...
My g35 coupe is an '03 6MT and also black. She will be going to a new home this Saturday.
I just sold the wheels and sway bars this past weekend.

I felt infiniti messed up the G37. I really liked the front look of the concept more than the final production.

The 335i is for the Wifey...

hence the Steptronic tranny and Alpine White.

I'm looking to get into the M3 in 2010 or so...

I work at Ramsey Infiniti. I can get you a value on your car if you want. PM me the options, color, miles etc etc etc and I'll work on it on Saturday for you

oh wth..
here are a couple pics of my black g...

snareman · 05-03-2007, 12:29 PM

I'm in the club as well. I sold my 03 G35. I loved the car and liked the styling better than the 335. It was much "sexier" of a car and I think attracted more attention. I was going to wait for the redesigned coupe (which isn't exactly much in the way of a redesign compared to the concept), but after 4 years of the G didn't want to wait until August, so I did a 2 year lease on a 335. The BMW is great and is certainly faster. We'll see after 2 years if I return to Munich for another BMW or head back over to Infiniti.

Very cool parents..... Who cares if 335 can beat the CL 55 or not..... I will take the CL over E92 any given day.... That Body Style CL's are my fav MB!

I don't like the way the G35 looks, but the coupe is so "SEXY".......and yours, WOW

----not sure if I would have given that up. Guess you got tired of driving around town getting spanked byt he other 335i coupes

.....just kidding, here's to your new baby coming in earlier than planned

Wow......you get to drive that and a 335i over the next two months just for giving up your G35.......damn, I'm jelous.

blingbling · 05-03-2007, 01:08 PM

Wow lots of ex-G folks here. I think Gs are nice looking car. I would have gone for the G if E92 wasn't around.

Nice loaner from your parents... I don't mind driving the CL!

So let me ask the ex-G folks here... what did you think of E90/E92 when you saw them on the road... like "ha!, my G looks so much better than yours!" etc.? Yesterday, I was driving on the highway and this white G tailgated me for a bit and then just cut infront of me (rudely) and took off. What was that all about?!

Chi-town330 · 05-03-2007, 01:11 PM

Add me to the list. I sold my G35 coupe a while back.
