Pops you must admit that statement does not make any sense.

The S Sedan Seats > S Coupe.

The Sedan has more adjustments and can actually hold my shoulders in.

Lots of people have mods in waiting, me included probably topping the list, but at least I have proven I own the mods I say will go on when the time is right. I want to see the Kinetix IM those things are sexy
What you have missed is Clashez does not own any of those mods outside of the exhaust and CAI.

2012 Chev Silverado, with 1850 miles. No typo..under two thousand miles. Damn thing is bouncy as all hell.....I know its been awhile since I last drove a truck but wow...I don't get motion sickness but if I spent longer than half an hour in this thing going down the road I probably would.

Good thing I'm not paying for it. Thing won't even fit in my garage.

Well I just went through 6 pages looking for pictures of his. A bit angry now. Maybe Ill just go shine my radiator . They are useful in the sense you will never need to worry about it again and Mishimoto will replace the radiator in the event of an accident so you literally have nothing to worry about because your cooling capacity will always surpass your need

However, you're the junkman, so you would know. OK then, aackshun, I stand corrected. Thanks for that info.

Now I wonder why they're different, how they're different, and why the S-Sedan's seats are better? Very strange.

i know you may have been at it a longer (and not by much believe it or not), but ive found plenty G37 sedan 6MT coupes for under 18K.... 0 Sedans in that price range, hardly even for the G35 sedan (HR)

Nice, that's how mine was before I fixed my engine mounts.
i absolutely cant wait to fix my rad support... i still need a new hood though as it got destroyed when it flew up after the header install... im kinda itching to dyno but i know this isnt a good time to do so as im only on 1 really working sensor and i have 0 tuning device... if i dyno right this second im only expecting 180whp tops lmao....

This upcoming saturday i hope the lower rad support is fixed, after which i will be checking the gear oil issue and order 3 o2 sensors.... 2 secondaries and a primary and i still need to relocate the rear o2 bung... i suspect it has a lil to do with the vibration as the sensor is sitting on the rack.... too much to do lol

I think we at least determined that it wasn't the same car. Didn't he turn around and sell it right after?? That was way back in the old Ghustle thread.

After rolling around my in-laws 2005 G35 Sedan they just got, I really really want a bit newer G35 6mt or G37 6mt. Obviously the G37 would be faster and nicer yet, but they are expensive. Actually, I'd even love to drive a 2008 or 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP 6mt. That is the king shizzle of GM sedans right there...

Yes, but that's not because of the respective value of the cars, it's due to availability.

Let's put that to the test. Right now on AutoTrader, looking for a 2009 - 2010 G37 6MT, there are 82 Coupes and 18 Sedans. When you factor in the annoying occurrence of many Sedans erroneously listed as "manual transmission", that ratio gets even wider.

On another note... if you're looking for a 2009 G37 6MT for under $18K, then get used to disappointment. The lowest price right now on AutoTrader is $22,000. And that's already got 60K miles on it.

Sorry, Hustler, but you need to raise your budget, or push your plans into 2014.

Speaking of mileage... I'm going to slip over 7000 total miles this evening.

Five-figure mileage is right around the corner. Oh dear.

2014. That's when I'm gonna be in the market for something new. I was just thinking today about how much the G37's are going to cost by then.

I just hit 130k when I drove to get gas this afternoon. It had 115,242 on the odometer when I drove it off the lot in June 2010.
