Default Any previous G35C owner here???

Aite...I need to get rid of my Z....It's killing my back and well, I need to get rid of it cuz it seems like my a...ummm...nevermind about my back...in any case...I'm trying to figure out what to get. I want to wait until the 2008 G35C comes out, but that's gonna be another at least 6 agonizing months. I'm contemplating between a new 2006 4Runner Limited, a new 2007 Tundra CrewMax (when it comes out next month), an Acura TL, or a G35C...I love my Z, and I really don't wanna get rid of it...but right now, I need to find me an automatic and better ride quality, something with not such as rough ride as the Z. It wasn't until today that I started considering like a 2005 or maybe 2004 G35C...please give me some inputs between the G and the Z.

ThanX

I used to have a G35 till it got totalled. Seating isn't that much better. They are quite softer but they overall have the same bolsters. The lumbar is adjustable so thats a plus. That will definitely help your back. Unfortunately the Z's dont have that. But the g35 coupe's seat controls hurt and cramp your leg! I think they even have a TSB for that. Hope that helps.

thank you for your response...is the ride softer than the Z, as in, will it absorb every little crack on the road like how the Z does???

Had both, liked both. I don't need a small back seat.

My G had the Sport Tuned Suspension Package, which is like a Track/GT set-up [LSD, Performance shocks/springs/sway bars, 19" forged alloy wheels, RE050 tires].

Both are totally different than a truck or a compact sedan.

Drive all [Back to back] and then make a decision.

It will ride around the same as the Z. I had a buddy with one and while the g is a little softer it isn't really that much softer. You feel every bump in the road with the g and z. Scratch the G off your list.

Its softer and you don't feel the road as much. Sounds quiter and sturdier IMO. *puts flame suit on*

New G35 sedan or the BMW 335i. Don't get the IS350 because that thing is cramped.
