I’m not paying someone to get a load of dirt. It took me one hour to load the truck, unload and clean the bed when I was done. Delivery is $150.

You don't have to have 450 horsepower to have fun. My Jag has 300 horsepower and I love droving it.

I had an Infiniti M6 coupe at the time.
Can I ask "What is an Infinti M6?"

I googled it but only saw the G35/37 and a bunch of "BMW M6's"

Crossed threads are tight threads.
I've seen some crazy tricked out Miatas...one with a 302 in it. Seeing a Miata and hearing a v8 rumble really had me scratching my head lol.

Sorry - G35 M6 Coupe. It had the 298hp, 6 spd with aero package and wheels. Black on Black. It was a really nice comfortable and fast car.
Here it is at NJMP. I was lucyk to get the number I wanted, #21 - Black Jack :)

Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
I'd love a first gen g35, the noise that motor makes is neat.

A G35X with the 6 speed has been on the back of my mind for years now. Definitely not a need, but there's a lot of want there.

I first saw the car in a Home Depot parking lot. The first thought that came to mind was 'I have to have that car'. I was recently divorced so I didn't have someone standing there telling me 'No' and I pulled the trigger.

I purposely deleted the spoiler and sunroof for cleaner lines. Dealer made me front him an extra $100 to delete the sunroof. When I asked why, he said 'if you don;t take the car, I'm putting a sunroof in it to sell it'. I thought it looked cleaner without it and sunroofs were never my thing anyway.

He gave me a sneak peek at the G37 when it first came out (before the official unveiling). I turned it down. It was too 'fractured' for my liking (too many sharp lines). The 35's lines were all smooth and rounded. Look fast sitting still. It only had 10k on the ODO when I sold it but managed to get half my money back so not too bad.

Hmmm??? the 1st gen G35 I drove a while back was a manual, but I never got out of 4th gear in my neighborhood. I cant recall if it had 5 or 6 forward gears. Were all manuals 6 sp?
