I wasnt able to pull off any parts as the car is immobile.. so i lost everything with this.
Yeah the M45 is sweet, it was my first choice, but i decided not to get it, and my dad snatched it up instead (to trade in the maintenance ridden benz).
Also I did buy domestic because at the price i paid for the new 300C with Hemi, i couldnt go wrong. I was looking at G35's and the new lexus is250 but it didnt do anything for me, plus the 300C i got a SICK SICK SICK deal on it.
I dont want ot get into the whole domestic versus import arguements because my faith in imports has significantly died after owning two Nissan 5.5gens. I will say, having my car towed in to the dealership several times in 3 years of ownership, plus having a new VQ35DE motor installed because of oil burning issues, and variety of other major issues made me feel like imports arent all they are cracked up to be.
I have been suffering the 300C forums and i dont see as many complaints about the car, like i saw on the maxima forums. But its a lease and i will get out of it in 3 years and hopefully i will see better cars in the future to select from becuase right now there is NOTHING out there that i liked, and that would compare to my modified maxima.

Hell me more about this M45 oil consumption issue. I never realized there were any issues on the VK45 V8 engines.
As for the 300C... we'll see how it goes. I would never BUY one personally as the depreciation is purely rediculous on these cars.

Thanks for the comforting words... I THINK LOL>...
I still havent settled with the insurance but man it was SO SO VERY PAINFUL to walk way on saturday.
The more i drive my Hemi, the more satissfied I am. I am surprised how well this car handles in stock form (in fact its much more nimble than both my maximas were stock, and in fact feels a lot tighter).
The torque on this thing is UNREAL, i thought the maxima had gobs of torque, but this thing just pulls.
I ddid look at the BMW 330, the IS250, and a whole slew of other cars. But this car really does make a statement when its on the road. And it feels like a million bucks driving this thing even though its in the same class as the maxima.
Surprisingly for a domestic, the fit and finish is WAY better than the US built maxima/altima (i driven so many US built Altimas and several 2k5/2k6 maximas). The car actually feels solid (unlike other domestics I have driven).
Look, I am not a big fan of the domestics, nor would i EVER bash on imports. I just couldnt find the right car in the short time period I had (like only one week) because i was tied up with work and crap.
Just went to a shop to get some lowering springs and some 22's to make this bad boy look HOT.. Lets forget about adding a system to this car because MY GOD CHRYSLER, WTF kind of wiring is in this thing.. Most shops dont want to touch it because it has NAVI, and i though the maxima's BOSE system was bad.
