You did say CLASSY AND SPORTY. LEXUS IS does all the talking for her. Nothing worse than pulling up in a car you think is hot and no one knows what the hell it is.

That bugs most women, lol.

And a G35 isn't?

(don't bother pulling out your googled articles about the IS and G35. The internet isn't the gospel).

Paul, if she ends up wanting a G35 I have a sales person at my dealership that will treat her right. Let me know.

**Crazy Asian** · 02-28-2007, 06:36 PM

Lexus...no doubt. Infiniti great and all but lexus man you cant beat that. Seriously so much shit for such a lil price compared to BMW

**Julio** · 02-28-2007, 07:12 PM

Some of those prices are kinda off....

**Rican219** · 02-28-2007, 07:24 PM

IS all the way

MazdaSpeed6 is nice too, but IS says Pu$$y smells like fuckin honeysuckle bitches

I think Passats are very classy.

**HeLLo iM iZzY** · 02-28-2007, 07:47 PM

I voted for other.

Please remove that A4 and put S4

**Jkuao** · 02-28-2007, 08:14 PM

IS is pricey relative even to the new G...my sister-in-law's 350 w/ nav was a solid 10k more than my fully loaded '06 G and doesn't even have memory/heated seats, HID's, premium audio, or the G's gimmicky reclining back seats. Admittedly I don't get the slick looks but the G does everything I need it to and shares parts w/ coupes/350z's so plenty of cheap mods should I keep it beyond the warranty.

The IS is pretty though...and plenty fast, although the paddle shifter is kind of lame. IS250 is the only one in the 35k range though. 350's with anything other than sport wheels cost high 30's after tax. Most girls I know go 250's b/c it looks the same and feels plenty sporty compared to the Camry's they're used to.

If she's an enthusiast, there are the dark horse options like used CTS-V, AMG C32, S4, M3 (coupe yes but so sexy) but the IS is 90% as fast w/o the reliability/maintenance headaches. IS is also a poor tuning choice unless she has an extra chunk in reserve to build a real money pit. Also no mention if auto is requisite...if so please don't let her buy a real performance model as it only encourages more manufacturers to build these half assed SMG's, paddle shifted autos, etc.

No votes for the TSX or what about the new TL both high luxury and sporty to boot. But maybe i'm a little biased but whatever.

**BiH1320** · 03-01-2007, 11:15 AM

how about she gives me $10000 and then she will have $25000 to spend. which will be a much easier choice.

**GTScoob** · 03-05-2007, 11:10 PM

Legacy GT B-Spec if she can find one. Is she going to get a manual tranny or an automatic, as many of these cars are only offered in one or the other.

GTO is another good recommendation although it looks just like every other Pontiac and nobody wants their car to be mistaken for a Grand Prix.

so true

i have NEVER liked Infiniti... i don't like body styling of the G35 at all, i think the IS is way better then the G35.

if you end up getting the IS then my dad will treat your girl right, he is one of the managers at Nalley Lexus Galleria, biggest lexus dealer in the southeast, or if she is just curious and wants to pop in and chat, ask for Rick Croft

Tell your dad to hook me up on a trade-in.

Want to trade-in our black on black, 5spd IS300 for an IS250 or IS350.

You my friend, you summed it up right.

Tell her to get a 330i (06+) or a G35 Sedan, if not those, a used IS350 will do her right, those are SICK cars.

**Silver280zx** · 03-22-2007, 03:01 PM

have you looked into used lotus elise's?

**rickgiblin** · 03-24-2007, 01:48 AM

id say go with the is350. they are extremely nice and by what i have heard, there pretty quick. id also recomend a g35 also

**PRiMAdonna** · 03-24-2007, 02:49 AM

tell her to go for the s40! i love love love mine, and the brand new ones are HOT!

The only reason Lexus, Infiniti (<-----see the "I" at the end you stupid people?), and Acura all exist in the US is because of the american public's view of the Japanese big three. Americans won't buy a $60k Nissan Fuga, but they WILL by a $60k Infiniti M45.

It's actually for tax reasons. Also for marketing.

**KMDX** · 04-01-2007, 04:27 PM

ACURA TL- Biased opinion...lol..[IMG]

hyundai genesis sedan, v8

**andrewkd16** · 05-31-2009, 07:27 PM

g35 since 350z is only coupe lol

**hondachik** · 05-31-2009, 10:50 PM

Infiniti G35.

**DynamicSound** · 05-31-2009, 10:59 PM

G35 ONLY if it is no newer than 06. The 07+ body style looks like shit. The IS 250...350 if you want more power and the 328i will work too.

**_Christian_** · 05-31-2009, 11:00 PM

old thread is old

**black_e92** · 06-01-2009, 03:45 PM

I'd roll with the BMW 328i. They are classy,sporty, and sexy as hell. I love the the angel eyes they have for their headlamps. All in all you can never go wrong with the Bimmer!

Also the G-35 sedan is also an awesome car and very comfortable IMO.

**1SICKLEX** · 06-01-2009, 04:17 PM

This thread is OLD. CLOSE THREAD

**Ran** · 06-01-2009, 04:18 PM

Get a new Camaro. It's so classy, there are already recalls on it to take away some of the classiness.

**hondachik** · 06-02-2009, 12:36 AM

Lol. Fuck the retards that go around bumping old threads.

Anywho, what did she end up buying anyways?
