When it comes to aftermarket support, the cars are about equal. RWD>FWD, but insurance ownz the Infiniti, but unless you like paying car payment like insurance payments, keep the Infiniti. Maintenence, again, in Accord's favor, unless you like paying alot of money to maintain your G. In the end, I would stick with the Accord. G35's are just plain sexy, but a little pricy and aren't worth it if you are on a slight budget
    There is an Accord V6 and i would assume that if he was comparing an accord to a G35 it would mean he was looking at a V6. And the G35 was rated Least deadly car on the road....which mean the insurance would be lower than what you are thinking

    G35 hands down from me....its the obvious choice and no need to even ask

    G sedan was rated as one of the safest. Coupe was not but the 350Z was rated one of the deadliest. I would say the G coupe splits the difference. IMO the spectrum is due to the types of drivers the car tends to attract. G coupe insurance isn't going to be cheap but some people on this forum seem to think paying 3k per year is reasonable.

    Buying a G to modify is hardly a great idea. If you get a new one, voiding the warranty is stupid. If you're doing stereo, you're making the car a target when it was far lower profile than any Honda/Acuras. Brembos were only available on the early ones and short of expensive pads its all bling factor. Aftermarkets are much nicer. To be honest the flaw behind modding is also the case w/ the Accord but the additional cost of the G makes it much more expensive.

    It comes down to what you want. If you have a big 5 figure modding budget on top of buying the car, then why not get the G. If its a car that you can sell at 200k for a decent amount of money and leave stock, the Accord is a safer bet. If you're actually concerned about gas mileage...the G may not be for you. I don't get much above 23 w/ premium on my sedan which is a bit lighter than the coupe. Even doing a big roadtrip it barely creeps above 24.
