It's high on my list
RWD "maxima", lux items, 5-sp auto (don't care to be the fastest), should have better leg and head room, should have better resale value, should stand out.
Z is next on list (if it has good head and leg room).

I am VERY interested in the G35 as my next car. My lease expires on my SE in less than 8 months. My biggest issue will be if they offer the 6 speed. If not, no thank you.
I was tempted by the IS300, but all you have to do is spend about 10 minutes on their forum to realize that most of them are owned by kids. They ask silly questions like, "my parents are buying me an IS300 for my 16th birthday...what color is coolest?" Questions like that just pi$$ me off!
Besides, the IS300 is slower, much smaller and missing a ton of creature comforts.
I think the G35 would be a great compromise between the IS300 and a Max SE...but I won't forgo the manual trans.

I thought I read somewhere, (Car& Driver?)that the G35 would list
somewhere near 30k.
If that is the case, and they offer a 5/6 speed, or at least a manumatic, I will give serious thought to a trade in.
Oh, I forgot I need a back seat also!

1) Silver (ligther than sterling mist) or Grey (sort of like grey lustre)
2) Yellow
3) Black or White
If they have blue, then that might be first depending on the shade.

What could have possibly given us the idea Kev has cash, could it be how he has just about every mod out there, including a supercharger.

Too expensive for me at the moment. Plus, I think it should have more than the 255hp 3.5, more like the rumored 280+ hp Z will have.
