About to pull the trigger on an awd coupe

I've own my g35 coupe for 6 years & 2 weeks. Bought the 1st one in town off the car carrier. I did just about everything under the sun.
ati supercharger, then built engine with greddy twins, exhaust, quaife lsd, brakes, etc,etc...

now on to the g37, I've been hoping for an awd variant of the coupe for years now!!!

Thanks to my girlfriend I'm getting employee pricing (invoice), plus tax & $399 doc fee. not too shabby

now I have to choose between; white/willow & black/graphite
the white car is loaded(prem,nav,wood trim)
the black car has just the premium

never owned a black car before, so I might go with the white? still deciding

of course basic brakes & wheels(no biggie)

they will come in sometime in the next 3 weeks...

1st mods, suspension & brakes, ironman(damn cool looking)
then in the fall, off to Sharif for the TT treatment

think GTR lite

anyway, I been on the g35 & my350z boards for 5 years or so & hoping to continue the comradarie(sp?) here


peace

crap i typed WAD into the title and cant change it

oh someone fixed it for me thanks

whoa, sounds good. Black is a little difficult to maintain, not sure if your willing to do that or not. The white one is nice too, but its wood trim?.. not sure if i seen that before.

can't go wrong with either, but the white does have nav.

goodluck on your choice, oh and post up some pics of the g35

If you get the navi you will enjoy the car much more. It's still nice w/o Nav but the navi package adds that much more to the ownership experience.

I am reall ylooking forward to your mods and hearign your reviews. TT + AWD... that's going to be a nice combo.

Sorry but I don't really understand what plan you took advantage of: A, B or C? Cause none is selling at invoice, either under or above..Or maybe it's something different than VPP?

Thanks,
A

Um silly question but ho would the AWD outperform thne non AWD.
I love having AWD cuz already got 18 inches of snow this week and without AWD the G would be in the garage unused all week.
But AWD adds weight and also no sport suspension and brakes
food for thought

brakes, rotors, springs & shocks be gone in short order...

awd adds so much more demension on the road courses(a la gtr)

not worried about the added weight(less than 200lbs)
