So guys finally posting pics of my G35. It's a 2003 Platinum. Original owner, 59k miles on it. Had a slightly bent rim so i swapped out the 6 spoke 215 17's with his rims. Needed tires so we went with Continental Extreme Contact DWS. Great tires. work really well, nice and quiet and handle really well. Light too. Included some pics of my cousins 2005 6MT. He has 22" rims on it with a drop. He had some staggered 20's on for a while which were nice. Love our G's and yes I know I need a drop but living in New York City is a no no for a drop.

Well, yours is stock, so a nice and sleek sedan (always thought you had a coupe), but honestly, your cousin's one looks horrible :p.
Bad color, dark lights, enormous wheels, no thanks.

the brake discs on the red car's rear wheel look ridiculous!

those G's are ballin :D. I'm a fan of the G35. My friend has a silver sedan and its a very nice car to drive. His factory xenons seem a little dim at night though. How do you find yours? You may not even be able to tell with the constant interruption of other city lights from a place like NY eh.

Yeah, the red one's wheels are way too large.

The other one is fine though!

Nope she's a sedan. yeah we tell him it looks bad. it looked SOO much better with the staggered 20's. i like the color. bit too loud for my taste. dark lights suck, can't see out the front at night. wheels make car slower and bad gas mileage. its still a fun car, probably because its stick

yeah i told him he needs to do a big brake upgrade and eh too lazy to do the eggnog sorry, a few people on here know me and know i'm telling the truth.

very fun car to drive. xenons are a bit dim, i wish they were projectors. they work though. but i agree the lights could be better.

Now that I think about it, are those black lights legal?

I love both G's. The G-35 and 350z are super fun cars to drive all day long---you never get tired of them. I have wondered why it is so much fun to drive and I concluded that the the engine in that car, the VQ35DE is truely a blast and a ton of fun for aggressive driving. I don't thik I can get away from my G.

And then when you modify the car with the right set up and components, it gets even more exciting to drive such that it dominates your entire life and person. No car should have such an effect on anyone.

Other than the loud sound of my car, my car looks stock but with the performance of mid-size V-8s, and all the modifications I have is N/A. I have run with Pontiac G8 GTs, Jaguar (I think X-type) with superchargers, Dodge Charger R/Ts, Dodge Neon SRT-4, G-37s, superchargeed 3 -series, etc. Surprisingly, my G-35 coupe either keeps up or beats them.

The only cars that have spanked me were Corvettes and BMW M-3s (older models). I think the gearing of the M-3 makes it very quick---very fast off the lot. The Corvette has a lousy low end gearing (slow in take off) but a superfast highend gearing---its like a rocket once it gets up there.

I spank all other BMWs from 3 to 7 series, all day long. One little car that impressed me was a Mazda Speed 3. This little car is no joke. On flat ground, I couldn't shake it off. On an inclined plane, it slowly left me behind. Beware of the Mazda Speed 3, the Mitsubishi Evo, and Subaru WRX STI.

Headlamps are not legal, I think. Taillights are okay. But I think the laws vary among the states, so I can't tell.
