The m340i with the same motor and like 300 more lbs does 0-60 in 4.2, mid-high 12 quarter. Can’t imagine a much lighter coupe that’s easily tunable is a bad thing. Also not sure where you got 330hp crank from?

G35 interior had much better plastics IMO. I owned an 04 and it was nearly perfect inside even when I sold with with 114k. Meanwhile every single 350Z I have been in the center and the plastic in front of the passenger has been scratched to hell. (My 04 G pictured below, sold in 2014). Z’s are known to be louder…
Which is why the choice if you want a Z is to get a G. The Z’s rear window is far too close to your head leading to NVH, and the material inside are nearly the same as found in a $200 walmart electric toy car. Every 350z and 370Z I drove I hated, while the G35/G37 with far more creature comforts(and cheaper insurance)…
I was in a 2013 G37 sedan sitting in traffic when someone switched lanes 2 or 3 wide and hit me going 55-60mph. Luckily it was only a sideswipe-3/4 hit rather than front to back, but it was still painful. Dude was texting and drove a early 90's minivan and flew another 100 feet forward. Cops and tow truck told me if…
If you can find a stock or especially a modded one, I think you’ll highly like it. My buddy with an E90 6speed m3 switched cars for 10 minutes and he loved the torque, sound, and steering. He sold his shortly after for a modded 335 while I still have the F.
Great car, that E39 is my favorite BMW by far. Not sure of your driving habits but I put 25k miles a year on mine, which is actually down from 35-40k a year in years past. Have happily driven my F from DC to FL or up to NY. 50+ mile commute every weekday. Funny enough I bought an extended warranty and never even got…
Cheaper to upgrade the ISF to M5/M3 handling/power and be able to comfortably daily it than own one of the german options. Out of the box the ISF wasn’t a fantastic handler, especially the 08-09 models, but they weren’t Corolla’s either. The biggest flaws were way too soft LCA bushings( allowed front end to change…
Absolutely. I’ve had my 08 for just over 2 years and 53k miles(83k total) and it’s been my favorite car so far. I used to switch every 1-2 years(G35 coupe,G37 coupe/sedans, wax hatch, C5, miata, cooper, etc) and I love it. If I take it easy it can hit 28-29 mpg, avg with some traffic but long commute I do 20-22,…
It’s winter and I see 5 C7's a day, many more C6's though C5's(my fav) are getting rarer. Not everyone wants the same thing.
Do it! I’ve had an ISF for the last 50k/2 years and absolutely love it. Gets better MPG than my previous G37 and is reliable too. They keep their value even better and are both faster and rarer than the SS, which(imo) is only interesting if you can find it with 3 pedals. Luckily no kids yet, but freshly married with a…
I always wanted one in college but could only afford a Rodeo. Couldn’t even afford the Pathfinder lol. Great looking trucks!
I’ve put about 10 hours into it and while it’s nice and scenic and you could easily get 100 hours of gameplay out of it, so much of it is tedious bullshit.
Sounds like the X is a better phone/deal.
Exactly why I keep going back to The Office.
When did the Viper, Chevy SSR, and Prowler come out?
I would say so.
Have you seen the GTR, Cube, Juke, Murano convertible, FX? All are fairly interesting for their segments. Still no idea how the middle 3 were ever approved for the US.
100% agree. The G used to be a Z-car in a suit with damn good looks and plenty of features, reliability and value, and a great aftermarket as well. Loved my 04 coupe, 08 coupe, 12 and 13 sedans, all manuals to boot. But starting with the Q50 they lost the name, the LSD/manual, the fun to drive factor, and while the…
Mine is a 2008, with a few upgrades(even more since the photo posted previously). I am also getting the 2011+ headlights modified here in October. As an update, I am at 48xxx miles put on in less than 2 years, current miles about 78k. Has been flawless and I’ve decided to do a few handling and aesthetic upgrades and…
I’d pay $40k if not a little bit more if they threw in a turbo with 350hp or so with a warranty. Lord knows that makes way more sense than a damn Impreza or Civic for $40k..
