looking for g35 for when I get home from deployment
I am currently in Iraq right now and I am still looking for a g35 to buy when I get home for good sometime around May. I want a 2005 OB coupe. I looking forward to meeting a lot of you guys when I get back.

I don't think it will be too difficult to find a black coupe...seems half of the G's they made are that color. But I'm curious why an 05 vs. maybe an 06? There are some subtle styling and redesign changes between the years and I'm just wondering if you're already aware of those and have considered that. Also, are you looking for a manual or 5AT?

His first post says May.
In my opinion...go with a 6spd. Almost everyone that I know that got a 5AT wishes they would have gotten a 6mt instead after the fact. And another thing to consider is on 05+ coupes, the revup with 6MT does have more power than the 5AT (298 vs. 280). If you want a more comprehensive list of differences, go to inifinitihelp.com and you can go the the coupe section (it will be listed in the G37 coupe section but just date back the model year to get to the G35s) and get the breakdown of everything that changes from year to year. It's also a nice site for info on recalls and other stuff Inifiniti related.
I have been leading more towards the 05 because of the price, considering the list of parts I want. If I can find a nicely priced 06 I would buy it in a heartbeat. I have been doing research on here and g35driver for the past couple months now. ill take either a 5AT or 6MT.

If you like driving a manual car, absolutely buy a 6mt. Unless you don't want to deal with it everyday. Personally I have been dead set on a 6mt and have been looking for one for 10 months. Have thought about just buying a 5at but decided I wouldn't be happy.
Just buy a 6mt
It's going to be really tempting when there are 2 6mt g's sitting in garages next to each other

Its good to find a group of local guys here. I will definitely be hitting up as many meets and events as I can. the road trip in may would be so sweet but its cutting it to close to the end of my deployment, and I might not have a g by then. I CANT WAIT TO FINALLY COME HOME!
