    Yeah true. I'm sure you guys will leave me in the dust on a straight run but the twisties are a different ball game altogether.. I did beat my friend's G35 sedan on the dragon late last year. Anyhow, let's see. I might have to counter the power deficit with some good ol' fashioned bravery.

    Umm.. so? Both versions have pretty much the same power (~290 at the crank & 230-240 rwhp) and weigh pretty much the same (~3500lbs). Unless you have Walter Rohrl's shifting skills, serious weight reduction or a blower in there, the performance should pretty much be the same.. maybe 0.1sec here or there. Not trying to get into a debate out here but just pointing out the facts.

    the sedans are lighter than thats and have less power at the crank. i know what a G sedan is and can do. and a driver and suspension has alot to do with it.
