VW R32

or Infinity G35 sport coupe 6spd MT

If you had to pick one...company pays so cost not a factor....

Only Factor:

3 months to order a G35 w/o all the crap they put on

R32 in stock...

R32=Fat, Unreliable, Overpriced, Not-really-so-fast pig. Infiniti G35 - more powerful, better handling, and more reliable dream :)

some company you got there :thumbsup:

personally I'd go for the G35...I find that VW aren't the best values, but since cost is not an issue, then just get whatever catches your eye

g35 and i'd mod the hell out of it since i got the car for free

edited: then again, for that price range i'd get a cobra and mod the hell out of that. can you imagine? a free cobra? all i'd have to do was drop 5-10k and i would have the faster car EVAR

lookie likes G35 is the overall winna...

company doesn't pay for it entirely...however they do give a generous car allowance and car equity something or another...only for cars less than 5 years old...so bu bye ma 2000 Civic.....

but this should be pretty standard...professional outside sales = expense account ...car allowance..

G35. The R32 is overhyped. I do like the looks, however. If your primary buying point would be looks, just get a GTI and put huge rims on it and get a y-pipe.

do you spend your workday on the road mostly doing sales from client to client ? Seems that's the only way to get a car out of a company...

R32 is like a maxed out golf... no more room to make it any better

G35 has a lot of potential

Dude, what a stupid question to ask. You know how many Vdub haters there are in this group, so obviously it isn't a fair question.

looking at my sn, you can probably guess what i am going to pick;)

R32 is awd, so you can drive it anytime.

the G is rwd, that means no driving in the snow or heavy rain.

If i had another car, i would pick the G, but if this was my only car, then R32.

Faster != better.

100% false. check out the r32 forums in vwvortex forums. you'll see what im talkin about

come to think of it...the AWD of the r32 makes it more practical here in NJ

ok so its not 100% maxed out.... but how is the potential of a G35 less then that of an R32?

actually i'm gonna go test drive a R32 right now....from what I've read the r32 is pretty decent car....however i am kinda concerned about the image of that car here in LA (2 fast 2 furious type)..
haha...i gotta wear a suit everyday....

the good thing i think is that it seems like there are lots more r32 to choose from due to a lower demand...

i'll let you guys know how the test drive went.....

good choice. my friend has had two R32s....first one got crashed on the freeway when a van skipped over 3 lanes and hit him. his car either rolled or hit the divider (i forget), but nonetheless he came out without a scratch. very safe car.

also, i've been with him and we've smoked a G35...and his R32 is stock. and maxed out? please. the vr6 is one of the best motors out there. strap on a stage 1 turbo from hpa motorsports and ur hitting 444 hp. stage 2 550, and stage 3 is in the works. the turbos cost $20k+, but they make it a daily driver turbo.

least to say, the interior of the g35 is flimsy compared to that of the r32, or any german car. get the g35 if u love ur honda. get an r32 if u love to drive. all i can say

oh, and IMHO, the R32 sounds a LOT better than the g35. let me know what you think of the R32. and BTW, the R32 is more of a chick-magnet, esp once they hear you rev it. they're like WTF is that?

*i'm prepared to be flamed for this post. lol*
