Personally speaking, I think you did much better - forget the Infiniti - enjoy the Corvette.

It was a two year lease (15K miles a year; residual value was horrible after two years and GMAC had a fairly high money factor rate which equalled a fairly high monthly payment). However, driving the Corvette for 30K miles was priceless. You will love the C6; ton's of power and handles like it's on rails. If you've never driven one, the power is unbelieveable!

The G37S is a great car, but it does not even come close to the performance and style of the Corvette.

Have fun with it...

I did file a complain with Infiniti but no one has bothered to call or send a letter. One other car I was also thinking about was the IS from Lexus.

btw here is a picture of my new ride :-)

I don't need to test drive it since I had test driven the car already.

She comes back with 49k and change with TTL and negative equity on my Jetta (Offered me 13,000k when car max offered me 15,500) on a vehicle of msrp of 42k and change. Tell her she is way off on both the price of the car and trade in. She goes to talk to her "Manager". He comes out and starts bsing....

Specifically told the guy what I wanted. Ivory Pearl G37 Premium Package and Iliminated kickplates, the only thing that was negotiable was the color and only to a Red one if they did not have IP. The guy offers me Graphite. Tell him I don't want graphite I specifically told him what I wanted and he then offers me a Sedan. I asked him if he had listened to what I told him! He said he didnt need to put up with my attitude and walked off ripping into shreds the "offer". Needless to say I didnt buy Infiniti and I am the proud owner of an 05 Vette with 9600 miles.

I was really dissapointed in their service. Im 28 and I was wearing a regular polo with jeans and a five a clock shadow and trading in my 07 Jetta.... he must have assumed that I could not afford the car and I was wasting his time. His loss!

BTW nothing against the car! Still think it's hot as hell. But I got a good deal on a Vette and went with that instead. Maybe in a couple of years I will give Infiniti another try.

Just wanted to post this here if anybody at Infiniti reads this. I called the Customer Relations department and she said she would forward the report.
