I confident the Z was a MUCH better choice.
an rx8? rly..?! the only way i would accept that car if it was free and then i would immedialty turn around and sell it to get parts for the Z. I can already tell your decision making skills are severly comprimised if the rx8 was a choice over the Z, so let me just say DONT DO IT! lol

A fully loaded, BASE, G35? Is it a 6MT? Then it has Brembos, right? Did it come with the 17 or 18" wheels?

In either case, I'd say the trade is typically worth it given the Gs higher resale value, lower cost to insure, etc., but you lose the former with that rebuilt title.

She wanted an AUTO, and she liked the paddle shifters, also wanted a NAVI, factory AERO kit and moonroof, which the RX-8 we bought came with.

all in all decent car, just doesn't handle or have the ***** like the Z. Also maintenance cost is ridiculous.

Piston > Rotary (just my opinion)

BASE model, 6MT, no brembos, no lip kit or rear wing like the sports package, no HID, but have moonroof, NAVI, and 19's (but they are ADR's which I hate)

Mine is Touring, 17inch base wheels, HID's, Heated power seats (2 tone black on burnt orange interior), no NAVI or VDC.

You're right with my clean driving record the G was $92.25 a month to insure and the Z was $115.98 a month. Through Geico, both comp. and collision w/ $500 deduct.

if resale value isn't a concern with getting the G then do it.
