Does anyone just cruise around doing nothing but burning fuel anymore? I love taking the car out for drive.. which I will do right now. be back soon.
yeppers. Once people get it into their heads that we have a Maxima, not a track car, life becomes so much nicer. I fully expect everything to beat me on the roads.

During a NYC meet, we had a parkway run between locations.... well, I got out near the front of the group at the beginning and I was nearly last rolling into the destination. I did get to see and hear some quick cars ripping by me

I got you bro 100%, we were just making a point about acceleration etc. Its a good all around car but no G in the power dept ( it does have some pro's over the G sedan), if we didnt have 2 sedans I most likely would have 1 instead of the Z. Enjoy your ride bro!

Well I'm back from the drive. It was nice a played a few theme songs. tupac picture me rolling, Will smith summertime and a few other that made going 20mph feel so good as everyone looks at the Snow driving by. It was even better when the HID's turned on just shy of darkness. Where did you guys meet in NYC?

I knew I liked you man! Tupac... Love it! It's a Max not am five hundred Benz that ain't stolen but I still Love it. Good song choice. Rearview is another, I could understand "highspeed""checkout time""run the streetz". Even though it has nothing to do with drivin another good one is "when I get free" "16 on death row""temptations""hail Mary" of course. You have me reminiscing or I guess you could say driving down memory lane. Ha

If I played all those songs I would crash. I would start singing(horrible) and lose focus. I rather just move my head back and forth and enjoy the ride.

horsepower is one thing, torque is another. equivalent torque at a lower usable rpm is more often more useful IMAO.

I was also so impressed with the CVT tranny on my wifes '09 Sentra that I wanted the CVT in my next car - and the G37 does not offer one. I also liked the dual moonroof, which is also not available elsewhere. On top of all that, the fully equipped Maxima is less expensive than the fully equipped G37!
I would've took that if the g37s coupe over max if it was a reasonable priced, They are damn expensive a whole 100 bucks a month more than Max!
