R1 Dan G37

Hello everyone,

My names Dan and I just wanted to introduce myself to the forum since I am extremely happy with a purchase I recently made, I picked up a 2012 G37xS with 23k Miles and all I can say so far after about a week is..what a car. I don't have a long list of cars being only 21 but my first car I bought was a 99' Hyundai Accent, then had a 2010 Corolla for a few years until I traded that for a 2012 Mazda 3 GTS, I always wanted a G and it was hard to decide which one to go with, and after a lot of saving and working 2 jobs whenever I could between college I came across this one and loved it, I went with the X just because I live in CT and some of the winters here can get bad and as much as it will hurt me driving the car in the snow I can't afford a second car but I would say this car is worth every penny. I was upset they didn't make an X for these years in the MT but I have to say the 7 Speed paddle shifters are fantastic.

Anyway, I look forwards to sticking around the forum and learning as much as I can about mods and what the best products are out there, I have a pretty decent list I would like to do but for now I'm going to take it slow with winter around the corner. Getting the tints done next week and that might be it for a couple weeks since this car is pretty fantastic looking stock IMO along with plenty of power for now

I don't have very many good pictures for now because I have been pretty busy and any free time I have I'm having way too much fun enjoying the drive!

Thanks for reading guys!

Great intro Dan, congrats on your new coupe, and only 21, pretty impressive!

Thanks! I know it took a lot of penny pinching and saving but in the end worth it all, thanks for the welcome!

Thanks! Like everyone usually says when they first buy a car not too many but I'm sure I'll always want more, I did plan on Tints, SRI, 5000k headlights with HID dogs to match and the 5000k vled drl, wanted to get some sway bars and maybe drop the car a little and buy some new wheels. I think that's it off the top of my head for now besides a possible full exhaust, I'm sure the list will get crazy over the next year or two haha

Congrats on the new buy. I bought my 2011 G37XS sedan last year around this time. Haven't had time to focus on the car but now I'm getting into it. Just got tints last week. Going to go all out before next summer.

Good luck with everything!

Welcome!!

I wish I had as much sense as you when I was 21. I was all about girls and beer and whatever car my parents gave me for school.

Thanks man, canoeists to you too! I didn't plan on really doing anything crazy until next summer, I know it's really hard to resist but these cars stock in my opinion are amazing anyway, I do got a list I wanna crank out next summer though, I think before winter comes I'll keep it how it is, got 10% tints last week and couldn't be happier with them

R1 Dan G37

Don't get me wrong I like to have fun but I'm not huge into drinking and I learned awhile ago most girls are too crazy to be chasing around

I won't lie it wasn't easy, working 70-80 hours a week all summer for something I wanted, in the end totally worth it

I agree they are great stock. Just want it to be different plus I'm bored it's black with chrome trim.

10% in Illinois would be a bold move lol. I bought mine with 20% in the back so I did 35% for the 2 fronts just to be on the safe side. The 2 fronts are ceramic which supposedly blocks 95% of heat
