CONVINCE ME not to get a G35

Hey guys,

I've been on this board for some 3-4 years now, and its looking like its time for me to change cars. My biggest attraction is the 2005 G35 coupe with 298hp but no Brembos. It is either this or an 04-05 330ci. Either car would be manual. I just am having the hardest time anyone can imagine trying to decide between these two cars...they are both so slick.

Let me know any comments, they'll be appreciated.

I guess keeping the 323 as a second car would not be an option in this equation?

the g35 is a dressed up 350 just get the 350 and throw some mods in there but if i where you i would get 330 xi and mod that i do not think that there is alot of them running around

You gonna get the coupe or sedan G35? The bmw is like what 5-10k above the Infinity? I like the Infinities, but I think I would go with the BMW for sure, look nicer, specially the ci. Unless of course you want to wait for the all wheel drive G35 coupe, that might be nicer.

Hmm, i like the coupe G35, but the 330ci is so freakin cool. I'd go with the BMW! It's classier, not quite as fast but it's just a nicer car and it's a BMW!

Whats your price range? Maybe the 330i ZHP?

the new 330ci ZHP is pretty sick...

but i must admit the g35 is pretty tempting.

Get a 350Z, then a Power Enterprise or Greddy Twin Turbo and call it a day.

the g36 coupe interior with GPS is simply amazing imo

test drive the g35 n then test drive the 350z n u wont wanna leave the 350. i test drove the 350 not to long ago n i msut say no matter what anyone says its a nice car and under no circumstances would i buy a 330 over it but a m3 is another story.

G35 is nice but it's too small compared to a 3 coupe and the 3 coupe isn't big by any means.

The power is nice but you'll definitely miss the BMW.

I know I did these past 8 months.
