it'd probably be an 01, or 02. It isn't for me it is for a guy i work with. He was sayin something about an rs6 conversion kit that makes the car ridiculous. I don't know much about audis. I was always told to stay away from them b/c they aren't great about warrenty work and things of that nature.

id take an S4 any day. V6 BiTurbo or the new 4.2L V8, beautiful cars. Designed to take out the M3 or at least attempt to.

G35c is getting to be like a honda civic in Boston. there all automatic. tho i wouldnt mind a 6spd G35c.

but u def cant beat 5.5 0-60, AWD, and Audi luxury.

yeah, in that case I'd take the G35.......I like S4's a lot but Audi has SERIOUS quality issues of late.....I don't think I'd go for the used one also because they are expensive to mod and repair as well.

Tough call!

I own a 03 G35 sedan sport package daily driver. Great deal, great performance with just a k&n & full synthetics. 11 months and no problems with anything.
3rd Nissan I have owned...all with no problems. I would strong-arm the dealer to get the sedan 6 speed though. My right hand gets bored until I take out the EVO.
The Audi's are beautiful cars but I have never owned one due to their reputation for warranty/recalls/deal service.

Good luck!

Aaron

Audi is way too expensive to repair if something goes wrong. With a new Nissan, yes things can go wrong, but then its under warranty!!!! The G35 is sweet.
