Totaled My G :-/

So unfortunately I totaled my car. . . I am undecided on what to get next, and looking for opinions. . . Here is a few that I have thought about but I'd like others opinions and reasons.

All cars will be preowned

M37
FX35 - newer body
Acura TL
Range Rover Sport

Man you had a beautiful G! What happened? Hope you came out unharmed.

I take it from your options no more sports car for you?

I have heard range rovers have particularly bad reliability, so if you are looking at used I would not go that route.

a friend of mine bought a range rover sport a while back. don't think he liked it very much. only had it for a few months then traded it in on an X5. it was a nice enough looking truck but the few times i was in it it felt like a tank.

That sucks to hear... Wonder what the insurance company is going to value the car with a plastidip job on it :/ wonder if this has happened before if a car is totaled with a dip job if it in fact lowers the value

Sorry on the Loss though glad your ok...

My. 02¢ On the Range Rover Sport or in general of that Brand... Had a 08 sport and traded it in within a year... Biggest yet worse POS for a SUV. Couldn't tell you how many times it was in the Shop being New.. Electrical this Electrical that and in that year brake problems.... you'd figure a 70 k suv would be great... not.. fuel millage is twice as bad as our G's

Warranty and such stick to Infiniti...

seems closer to a truck than to a car to me

...looking at it though i guess you could argue either way.

Think about your driving style. I have had a full-size pickup and it drove like a tank and I have had small cars and they whip around. Do you want off-road capabilities or are you a city driver? Different strokes for different folks man! Sorry to hear about your G! Just curious why not another G?
