Dude...your comments make me think you're the definition of a keyboard jockey with absolutely no time behind anything other than your "pimped" Camry.

It really does. I love the car...but if there was one thing I would change...it would be the engine sound...particularly at idle.
LMAO, I can guarantee you that I've driven 2x, 3x... nay maybe 4x the amount of cars you have ever driven.
It's called having access to a corporate paid rental fleet - aka Zipcar.

Zipcar here has like Scions and Mazda 3s and the occasional 328i or S40. lol
He's probably never driven a 3 series either...and most of them are pretty bland anyway. You have to get the 335i or the M3 to get any serious performance out of them and the starting price of a 335i is in the low $40k range. Add $10k to that for an M3. A G37 sedan will stomp the shit out of a 328i and you can get into a brand new G37 sedan for the about $33k...probably less in this car market.

oh...that's quite an e-penis you have there. I now feel awkward.
It doesn't mean crap what I've driven...my point is what you have driven as you were the one shitting on the guys choice of a G by saying they were "pathetic". If you had actually driven a 3 series and a G next to each other, you may not say the G was better than the 3...but to say it is "pathetic" makes you come off as a BMW fanboy or clearly lacking in any objective ability to review a car...which makes me think you are a keyboard jockey.
No.I thought every Maxima owner's dream is to upgrade to a GT-R. G's are pretty pathetic all things considered. How many years has it tried to be better than 3 series?
Like Jules said, the G37 will "stomp the sh*t" out of the base 3. You know this, why are you arguing otherwise?Well, it's pathetic when you consider how long it has been vying to beat the BMW 3, and it can't even top the base model.

I'm not saying it's a horrible car, (actually, I think the sedan is disgusting looking).
No.

Prickly the Prius is great for what it tries to be, which is nothing fast, but it works.

It tries to be fuel efficient...having good luck with that? You and the wife still happy with the purchase? I have feeling my wife will be wanting one next time we're shopping for a car for her...and I pretty much have told her she gets what she wants this time around...so just interested in how you're "coping" with it since you originally wanted a G35/7.
LOL when somebody says "stomp the sh*t" when referring to cars what the heck do you think they are talking about? Seat comfort? Brightness of headlights?Stomp the shit? It's faster. That's about it.
Let me see if reviews agree with me, going to google...
Edit: Yup, in a 4-way, the 328i beats the second place G37 according to C&D:

Most of our tanks around city are about 49-50mpg, for a real world 47-48. I've done long stretches in the mid 50's. I'll get a nicer/more fun car at some point (maybe), but even in a fast car 99% of the time we're all the same just trying to get from point A to B and it really is a cheap way to do it. So, no regrets and I think of my Maxima only infrequently.It tries to be fuel efficient...having good luck with that? You and the wife still happy with the purchase?

I used to have the previous gen G35 4 door in 6MT. I wanted to get the current G35/37 4 door in 6MT and looked 3 months for one. I could not find one. I ended up getting a 335i E90 6MT which I had to special order and that took 3 months to get.
Whenever I took my G35 in for service, the service tech would be shocked. They told me they would rarely see a 6MT. Maybe 1x a month at most. I got really lucky when I got my car. It was sitting in the show room floor but it had already been sold 15 mins earlier. The salesman later came up and said the guy didn't pass a credit check so I jumped all over it. It was a great car.
Got the authorization to retire the 02 Max SE and get a new G37 Sport (6 speed/4 door) and can only find one within 200 miles and it is some type of ugly Teal color. Are these always that difficult to find or do they have to be ordered?
Finngolfin269,
Thanks for your help, it looks like I have to order one but it will have to be a 2011 model. I guess I may have to look at other cars. Maybe my wife will change her mind and consider the 335i.
If you want a stick, you may have to special order it like me. It took me 3 months to get mine bc of a factory slow down in December. Usually will take about 2 months though. If you have time, and you really want the BMW, you should go for the European Delivery option. It will actually be cheaper even with the trip.
