I'm giddy now that I've been told it will be ready for me to pick up tomorrow! For those who are interested in this car, I got the premium package and the tire&wheel package. The color is dark blue. Hopefully I can get some pics up over the weekend.

I've been looking forward to this for quite some time. I had a 2004 G35 and ended up switching it out for a 2006 4 banger Altima. The Altima is nice but I really can't wait to get back into a G.

'08 G35? 6MT? I've been wanting to get into a '05+ G35 sedan with 6MT, but I've only test driven the automatic. Congrats!

Unfortunately no. I love driving manuals for a limited time but due to a left knee problem it is just too uncomfortable when driving in extremely slow-moving traffic. The car is a 2007 so it does have the new body style and only thing missing from the '08 is the iPod interface.

Premium package has the bose but the HD only comes with the navi. I'll be using my 60gb ipod primarily anyway so it isn't much of a hindrance.

I can't really divulge how much I paid due to it being under employee lease pricing. "Steal" would not even begin to describe how nice this deal is. :)

Hopefully I'll have the new body style Maxima next year!

Damn. I'm jealous. I love that car and wish I could get it. I could but I have to save for a house.
Congrats on getting a good deal on it.

I just read a showdown in the new R&T between this and the new CTS and the G35 came out on top.

I know I've been slacking. I'll try to get the pics up as soon as the weather is a bit more conducive of good shots and of course the first good car wash. ;)

that car has some pep. there is a difference between the '08 loner i drove for 2 days and my '06.

one issue though, the newer G35(G36) is a bit less comfortable. i drive with my left leg angled towards the door, and the side compartment is placed too high. the pressure on the end of the tibula, or is it the fibula makes my leg sore.
