Hey Tim,

I am sorry to hear that you are selling your WW MR I wish we could of hooked up sinced we first made contact thru this forum after I bought my WW 05 MR back in Aug of 05. I guess there will now be only one WW 05 MR running around southwest OH! It's funny that you are selling your car to a guy up in MI, as I bought my car up in MI. I am sure you will love your G35, and good luck with your job. Sometimes you just have too make that tough decision.
Tell your brother I said hi. He does a excellent job at the hobbyshop, very helpful!

Take care,

Matt

If I were in your shoes, I'd get the Caddilac CTS-V

6-speed
Corvette V8 motor
RWD

customize it from there and still have that corporate look...

Matt, I wish we could have gotten toghether also... would have been fun to cruise around... although I do think it is funny that a 2005 WW MR is a very rare car... and there are /were two of them only minutes apart . I am sooo excited to get the G35, I went to the dealership yesterday to look at the car again... Infiniti is nothing but first class, from the time I first went in 5 minutes before closing on a Saturday, all the up to working a "passthrough" and closing the sale. They have free loaners when the cars get serviced, and will come pick up your car if needed. I am really happy with the decision so far... and can't wait for Saturday afternoon... I hope the sun is shining!!!!

I will tell Chris you said hi... he is very good at what he does... I just wish that it paid him better but he can fly an airplane like nobody's business.

Time to watch basketball!!!
Tim


As for the Caddilac CTS-V... $$$$ BASE: over $50,000 That is almost like getting the Infiniti and 3/4 of an RS Evo... I wish I was in that position... The G35 is about stretching the limit for this car payment!!! I am by no means loaded...

I came to the Evo from a 350z, the one thing I miss about that car is the fact that I could go thru every turn WOT and it would NEVER break traction, maybe because it lacked power maybe not I dunno. If you dont plan to go FI on your g35 may I suggest a 3.9 Final Drive ring and Pinion. Drops about 1/2 sec off your quarter miles time, best NA mod for the g/z

even at 45,000 that is 10,000 more than I am getting the G35 for... which equates to about 200 more a month on the payment... not small potatoes.

i was so close to getting a g35 myself. at this point in my life though, i think performance and winter driveability was most important.

I feel exactly the same way... now at this point I feel the need for the G35... as far as winter driveability... we'll see... I do still have an older civic to drive in the really icky stuff

I am sooo excited, less than 24 hours away!
