^^^ yeah I read about 2007 model already.....honestly, I don't like it much.....if you look at the rear end, it looks like g35c mixed up with maxima .....

I don't like the front neither......it's too sedan in looking (like the M series).......it may have more horsepowers but the price won't go below 40k..... well these are just what i think .....

Last thing....there always trade in possibility ....

don't you think these look hot?

you will get used to it within 2 weeks. Just make sure you dont feather the clutch when shifting. press that sucker all the way in.

And be sure to use the heal/toe when entering the corner to revmatch. It will help you launch out of the corners with more speed to carry through the straights.

J/K

Manual is easy after the first couple weeks.
