    The coupe is not due for a few, but I am sure when they release it we will get one of those too.

    Your guess is as good as mine. That's why I posted a pic of the sticker that says "Sample" across it. It has no price on it, so I guess it's free LOL

    That's how they ship it, and no one had PDIed it yet because it just got there. The only reason the plastic on the outside was pulled off was so we could take pics haha

    That's cute.... .Anybody notice the aluminum "racin' pedals"? Also, the gas pedal is floor mounted, instead of suspended like most normal cars. So that should be fun getting used to.

    What's wrong with that? BMWs have it mounted on the floor for years, and actually, my Datsun 510 has it mounted on the floor. I dunno why it would be a big deal. I can go from my 4Runner to my 510 and don't have to "get used to" anything.

    And turns out this blue one I took pics of wasn't ours. It was supposed to go over to Roswell Infiniti. Aparently when they dropped the Silver one off we have now they picked the blue one back up. I'm not sure how one would confuse that....maybe the truck driver was color blind?

    I highly doubt that. These may be "samples" but they are not preproduction cars. Those usually don't have a vin at all.

    Oh, and I think we are getting the new coupe in either December or January. When it shows up I'll snag pics of that too.

    Sorry, didn’t mean to make that sound derogatory. I was just reminiscing when I went from Sporty Accordy (suspended pedals) to my friend’s ’95 325i (floor mounted) and it was weird for a few minutes.

    Why do you need to wash the nice car?

    BMW and Mercedes ships in ENCLOSED trailers and each car is under a cover.... I thought all "luxury" manufacturers would do this?

    Let me make one thing perfectly clear right now: I do not wash cars.

    Now, let me go ahead and make the rest of your post look retarded. No, Infinitis are not shipped enclosed. Some Lexus models are, some aren't. Audis aren't shipped enclosed either. Are you trying to say that because these vehicles aren't shipped enclosed they aren't "luxury" as you put it? These aren't vehicles that are shipped unprotected. Audi even ships them with a cover that is over the entire car, including the wheels.

    Now as for your oh-so-special BMW and Mercedes enclosed trailers, I guess since they are enclosed they are sealed air tight so nothing can get in them? And before they are put in the trailer they are perfectly washed and detailed by the manufacturer and the covers that are put on them perfectly clean and sealed to the whole car, then the inside of the trailer is cleaned and detailed before the cars are rolled in? I mean, if you are suprised that such a "luxury" vehicle would need to be washed after it's delivered then these uber german models must show up PERFECTLY clean, and that is the only way that would happen.

    And BTW-I have seen Saturns unloaded from enclosed trailers, so the fact that BMW and Mercedes uses enclosed trailers doesn't make them fucking special.

    That last fact may be true, but since when does a Lexus, Infinity, or even an Audi stack up to a BMW or Merc in the luxury category? AFAIK, they are the 'leaders' of luxury, refinement, and technology, where's the others are simply the 'followers'. Audi's are known for a quality interior, and the S-series cars. Thats pretty much about it. Other than that, I'd NEVER own ANYTHING from the VW/Audi company.Are you seriously going to sit there and tell me that Infinity came up with their M model cars to NOT compete with the BMW M cars? Come on, give me a f'ing break man. Same with Lexus and the IS300, etc. Follow the leader man, thats what it boils down to. They're trying to follow in BMW's and Merc's footsteps, and ya know what? I don't think I've EVER seen a comaprable car from ANY of those so called 'luxury' company's that can compete on the same level with an equal car from BMW or Mercedes. The IS300 is beaten by the 3 series EVERY SINGLE TIME in EVERY SINGLE CATEGORY. Get a grip dude. Your POS Infinity isn't THAT special man. I sure as hell wouldn't be busting my nut over one, let alone be caught dead owning one. Whats that pos cost, anyways? I bet the germans make something comparable or better for the price.

    I talked to a guy who bought a new 330ci because, more than anything, the G35 dind't handle nearly as well, or stop anywhere near as well as the BMW. Kinda tells ya somethin there I think.

    Lexus has been the best selling luxury brand in America the past 6 years going on 7. The IS 350 is the fastest car in class until the 335 sedan with turbos debuted. The GS 400 was the fastest automatic sedan in the world until an AMG E55 came out.
    Lexus is the 4th best selling luxury brand in the world behind BMW/Audi/Benz.

    Infiniti and Acura have had much less success so you can't really bunch all Japanese luxury brands together.

    Lexus has the worlds first luxury hybrids in the RX 400h, GS 450h and 2007 LS 600h.

    Not sure how you came with the conclusion, Lexus is not true luxury.

    Now, let me go ahead and make the rest of your post look retarded. No, Infinitis are not shipped enclosed. Some Lexus models are, some aren't. Audis aren't shipped enclosed either. Are you trying to say that because these vehicles aren't shipped enclosed they aren't "luxury" as you put it? These aren't vehicles that are shipped unprotected. Audi even ships them with a cover that is over the entire car, including the wheels.

    Now as for your oh-so-special BMW and Mercedes enclosed trailers, I guess since they are enclosed they are sealed air tight so nothing can get in them? And before they are put in the trailer they are perfectly washed and detailed by the manufacturer and the covers that are put on them perfectly clean and sealed to the whole car, then the inside of the trailer is cleaned and detailed before the cars are rolled in? I mean, if you are suprised that such a "luxury" vehicle would need to be washed after it's delivered then these uber german models must show up PERFECTLY clean, and that is the only way that would happen.

    And BTW-I have seen Saturns unloaded from enclosed trailers, so the fact that BMW and Mercedes uses enclosed trailers doesn't make them fucking special.
    I guess saturn has respect for the price people are paying for them. My M3 better not see the open road on some shitty 18 wheeler en route to the dealer, Porsche also uses enclosed trailers. That is how luxury works, Luxury from beginning to end!

    lol... you guys are funny. what mercesdes or bmw has ever in HISTORY been able to claim a 5 star car from consumer reports for 5 straight years.....????

    didn't think so.... now the LS430 on the other hand can claim that



    and if luxury = bmw/mercedes then you can have them and all of their problems.

    No the hell they don't. This is total misinformation. I got pics of new R-classes (Mercedes)on a regular exposed trailer.

    Don't go spouting totally wrong information.

    How much is it?

    Base price for Auto G35 sedan is almost 34K.

    And why all the sack riding on the G35 sedan? It looks like the new Camry, which I would hardly say it something "badass"/hawt/cool/sick etc.

    Oh and suprisingly, Nissan has a car that has close to same performance specs, its the Altima with the 3.5... Its alot cheaper too.

    I gotta say, I do like the look of the daash layout, but god, like ^^^ said, why are you fags SOOO riding the nuts of this car? I mean, come one guys, it'll prolly be over $40k, and for that price, the new 335i twin turbo will walk it in every single category. Those brakes look too small comapred to the wheels, and it's prolly heavy as hell, and prolly feels like a large car to drive. IDK. I guess I just don't get it. Doens't seem 'special' to me.

    Oh look! Stereotypical BMW owners! What a fucking suprise. Lets get a couple more things straight, seeing as you guy's shit doesn't stink:

    1.) It's Infiniti you idiot.

    2.) Never was I comparing the physical cars to each other, but it's obvious you want to use any opportunity to talk about your BMWs and their "superiority" to the rest of the fucking earth. Whether your hollier-than-thou asses want to admit it or not, ALL of them are considered luxury brands, and to talk shit about something as stupid as a car needing to be washed after it is delivered is fucking retarded.

    3.) I posted this thread originally for the people that wanted to see it because I sell parts at an Infiniti dealership so I knew when it showed up. You two shitheads don't, so leave the fucking thread and go worship your fucking cars elsewhere. Neither one of you are wanted here. Never once have I talked shit about BMWs, and I still am not now. I like BMWs and almost bought one on more than one occasion. I am talking shit about YOU.

    Sorry. That was probably me. I am teh suck at typing sometimes. Go ahead call me an idiot. Why not end yourself while your at it. And let ME get a few things straight asshole - I'm FAR from your 'stereotypical BMW owner. I drive an old $2k beater E30 and a new Jeep. Grow the fuck up asshole.

    I do enoy talking about the superiority of BMW. But don't ever, EVER call me an 'hollier-then-thou ass', cause, well, you don't fucking know me. I drive an old BMW, mainly, for the sportyness of it. And I have less than $2k into it. I'm not afraid to admit it. I drive a new Jeep Compass, albiet fairly against the grain for a Jeep, but still a suburban grocery getter none the less for a daily. Some of the newer BMW's, no I'd enver consider owning, due to the rediculous maintenence costs on some of teh newer cars, and the non-ability to do maintenence on some of the newer cars, such as the M5, which now has no engine dipstick, requires the BMW factory dealer scantool to check the engine oil level during an oil change. I'm not saying every BMW is the greatest thign ever. But the competition sure does leave alot to be desired.

    A Lexus, yeah, I'd consider them a luxury brand, and I enjoy the feel of a Lexus, I've driven a couple of the newer ones. And I'll even go as far as admitting you do get a good bang/buck wiht most Lexus. Not all, but most. But they still don't compare with a comparable BMW. Price might be a lil steeper on a comparable Bimmer, sometimes not. All depends. Although, I said nothing about washing the cars. I agree with DinanM3ATL on that fact, but that points moot.

    Thats cool that you wanted to post it for those peeps that wanted to see it. I'm not gonna rip on that, I'm not an arrogant ass liek you seem to want to make me out to be. I'm just pointing out the facts. The fact is is that you people are just hard-core nut-ridding a POS jap car that can't compete. Simple as that. If you don't like it, pfft, tough shit, lol. I guess I can't do much about that. And don't ever call me a fucking shithead. Although, I do give you props for saying something directly to me, instead of waiting and trolling.

    As far as being wanted here - do you think I give a shit? Unitll I'm banned, I'll post wherever and whatever I fucking want to. Get over it or leave. And I never said you talked shit about a BMW.

    Grow up? I am the one that needs to grow up when you two come into my thread and continue to compare cars when it has nothing to do with this thread and is not what I was doing? Hmm....sure seems like a stereotypical BMW owner to me. The fact that you drive an E30 just makes you a logical one. I can't think of a better bang-for-the-buck then the E30 3 series.

    Honestly, I wouldn't own a Lexus. Hell, I wouldn't buy an Audi, or even this new G35 actually. I was just using the brands as an example for the ridiculous "enclosed trailer" nonsense that came up. I personally don't give a shit how a car comes, as long as it isn't fucked up when it gets there.

    I am not nutriding shit. I like the features the car has. That isn't nutriding, and I never said I wanted one.

    I don't have to make you out to be the arrogant ass. This part and some of the part above it do a fine job of doing it by themselves.
