Cool Can't decide between G35 or Altima Coupe

Price is a big difference. I could probably buy a new Altima Coupe for the G35 that I am looking at right now. It's a 2006 auto for 29K.
Too many decisions......I want fast, sporty, hot and something that is going to keep me as excited as my Harley that it will be replacing.

I chose a 350z over a g35 - hardest decision of my life. What made it easier? I bought a 350z and modded it with the price difference.

If this turns you on, get a Z - end of story.

Well i would say get a Z like the previous post and use the cost difference on mods etc unless you want something with a back seat. Then im going to say G35 over the Altima.

More features, better resale, and RWD>FWD. Plus you wont take a hit on it like you will on the Altima since the G is already used. The new altima will lose a ton of value the second you roll it off the lot which is why i never buy a new car. better of buying a used one a yr or two old with low mileage on it and its 8-10k cheaper depending on the car than one thats brand "new".

And sick Z btw. Daytona Blue represent.

IMO, Z > G35 > Altima
However, the new G37 is a totally different story!

Thanks, I think you really can't go wrong either way but once in a while I do look back and say that back seats would be really nice. But it's just one of those things that you can deal with.

Thanks bro, the other color choices I was going for at the time was: Ultra Yellow (05 - too expensive so it was out of my price range), Pikes Peak White (none in good condition) and Super Black (probly will drive me out of my mind because of the nature of black cars)

Gotta' be a joke. I see far more Altima coupes, thanks to the plethora of heavily discounted 2.5s out there.

g35 is way nicer than an altima. I don't see how they are compared to each other.

I have a Z and i was going to buy a g35 but ended up buying another 350z roadster. now i have two cars i love. But for some reason, people still think i can't afford a g35 and always say stuff like "should of saved up for the g35"

If you are going to get a G, better get a G37. Either G37 or altima

The Altima is FWD. The G is RWD. They are totally different cars in almost every sense.

Hello from B'ham, btw!

Yeah...whats the deal with that the G35 isn't that much more expensive than the Z.
