What kind of stuff do you do with PC's? I'm in IT myself. I currently work with Fairview on printer support, but I generally do PC work (Target, Wells Fargo and casino's to name a few places I've worked)

I work for United Healthcare on corp size applications, on different multi-OS environments whether its Linux, Unix, Windows... Mostly specialize on Oracle applications like the Hyperion suite or some Peoplesoft, or smaller venders software, then we architect, build and support the apps after go-live. 7x24... It is what it is, nerd stuff.
^^^ Not sure I welcomed you Shereko... So welcome 
Now i understand why Hossam was asking me about the body shop. It felt so random... You're scaling back mods on the G and increasing them on the M... I smell a VIP project in the future 
), I didnt want to worry about every little incline i pulled up to. so i just got a lip instead 
Hey thanks WannabeSport,
last week I was reading tire reviews on tirerack.com and on discounttire.com and seeing how different tires were, and I was looking at those Michelin Pilot Super Sports, they had the highest rating by users, and showed to have a much quieter ride, and were the only "sport" tire that had a warranty, which obviously isn't a huge selling point, but since the OEM Potenza's barely get over 22k its good to see these were warrantied for 30k. I just wasn't sure if it was more of a true "sport" tire or if it was something a little harder for a grandpa car, or if its soft enough to handle well for a coupe. I did see a review from a guy with a BMW 650 that also liked those tires. Thanks for throwing the pic of them up also, good to see if they are a stylish tire too. Also, they are a little more pricey but, if I got the same Potenza's that I have currently they are over a 100 more a tire, so really they aren't that bad.

To give you an idea what kinda tire the Michelin Pilot Super Sport is, it is the OEM tire run on the brand new BMW M5, Cadillac CTS-V, Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 and even a special version of it is run on the Bugatti Veyron (albeit taken to another level). A lot of high performance cars run the tire which speaks to me. And yes, for ride and comfort along with noise levels, it is incredible.. i'v had Hankooks and Falkens and they were significantly noisier than these... I have literally drank the Koolaid but I love these things. Transformed my car.. I am ready for some cruises now lol.
I am ready for some cruises now lol.Hey WannabeSport,
Yeah and reviews back that on the Pilot Super Sports, thats the ones I'm going to get! lol to be fair... the Michelins on the Veyron are runflats, and are 25k for the tires and can only be mounted on the Veyron's rims in France for 70k. Theres a little Veyron fact for ya. Seems like the best place I've seen for price on those is at Discount Tire... thoughts?? Ohh and all this G talk, makes me really want to get it out of the garage...

Question......
Hi all,
I have been absent from the forum for a while but back to get some advice. I have owned BMW, Lexus, blah, blah, blah, and really like my Infiniti and REALLY like it now that it is personalized, thanks to your help. Unfortunately, a lifestyle change (a good one
) makes the car impractical and I really need to buy a truck.
So my question, you guys are much more familiar with these cars and the market for them than I am, how much should I list the car for?
The car is a 2009 G37x with 26,000 miles, fully loaded, premium package, nav, etc. The car is a non-sport but I have added the sport front fascia (bumper cover) with no holes drilled in it because I have a custom license mount, rear OEM spoiler, wrapped the bright work, tinted the windows, full 3M clear bra, dropped on Swift X springs, brand new 19" VMR710's in hyper sliver, Hankook V10's, and of course the very discrete receiver hitch. The car is immaculate...truly....Janik and Andrew can vouch for the condition. It is currently in storage but here is a link to pics the only difference is the bright work is now wrapped. The car has a clean CarFax and I have the clear title.
Besides opinions on a listing price, should I put it back to stock before I sell it and sell the springs, wheels/tires separately??
Thanks,
Scott

You are better off taking the parts off and selling them separately. A lot of people spending that much money on a car want it to be OEM and will be turned off by modifications. You could probably get 23-25k for your car if it was OEM and ready to go. Low miles and a clean car.

Thanks Janik and Andrew. Yikes...23-25k. I feel like the irritating little girl on the AT&T commercial.... I want more...I want more....
I am sure you are right about selling it in it's stock form but I will probably try to sell it as is first mostly because I don't want to drive it that way it looks so much better the way it is now. I guess if I get real serious I will restore it back to OEM, as much as possible.
Dawn - that plate holder would look good on your car!! Give me $28k for it and I will throw in the car for free!!!
Adios,
Scott
