Hey everyone,
I picked up a 13' XS coupe (vibrant red) last week with 27k mi. and have spent a good time perusing the forum. The info on here is impressive. I had a 06' G35 coupe several years ago and traded it when my daughter came along. I've missed it and now she is old enough to fit comfortably in the back seat, so I am happy to be a G owner again. It's my DD with PA winters being unpredictable the AWD was really appealing.

I have plenty of light modification ideas but will have to pace myself so my wife doesn't kill me. I already ordered the OEM spoiler since infinitypartsusa had my color discounted 50%. Eventually I plan to do wheels/tires, springs or coilovers (just a mild drop to eliminate wheel gap), will upgrade brakes when the time comes, midnight black grill, and probably the Injen CAI setup.

I attached a few pics..

That is one clean and vibrant g coupe man. Super clean and bonus extra low miles. Really got to compliment you on a good find. For a mild drop I keep reading that swift springs do really well and for coils tien street basics will give you the height you are wanting if you want to dial it into a specific height for a good price.

But moving on, good luck modding and hope you can fight off the mod bug as best you can.

Welcome to the forum

Thanks, it is really clean and with sport/premium/nav packages I couldn't pass it up. I have been keeping my eye out for a year or more to see if anything was close to me and with the right color and options. This turned up less than 5 miles from my house.

Its a 7AT, it was nice to see the paddle shift is much smoother than that the of the auto stick in the G35.

Yeah I did a double take when I saw it make sure it was the real deal, I'm excited to get it. I feel like the OEM spoiler is a must for a G.

nice G! i have same car, but different color (also bought at 27k miles!)

i'm in PA, too - didnt get a chance to try it in the snow yet. i drove my Evo this winter because i already had snow tires for it. soon i'll get some new wheels for the G, and throw some snow tires on the factory wheels. i dont have room for wheels and tires everywhere, so have to sell the Evo first.

looking forward to snow doriftos in the G this winter ... LOL
