I was completely against looking at the sedan at first. After seeing and comparing the two, I had to go with the sedan. The purpose behind trading the Z was to get something more practical, but still very nice. The coupe back seat and trunk just weren't big enough. It was hard to turn my back on the looks of the coupe, but I'm just not in a position to have one at this point.

The sedan is black on willow with the sport tuned suspension, premium package, and the full aerodynamic body kit. I am very happy with the way it looks, especially in black with the full kit. At 29 years of age, I was hoping to still stay sporty rather than middle aged and boring. I think I accomplished that with this car.

It would not be fair to compare the Z I had to this G or vice versa, but lets just say I feel like a million bucks driving that car.
Congrats, sounds like you got a nice ride that suits your needs (at this time in your life). Been there done that, I've gone from Acrua NSX to Lexus LS 400 and then to a Toyota Landcruiser. Loved them all for different reasons. What I've alway needed was more money and a bigger garage

I've alway had this desire to own all of the quality/neat/fun cars that I could. It's ment that I've traded cars over my lifetime an average of around every 1-2 years. My wife thinks I have a "PROBLEM". She was fine back in 1981 when I traded the 280ZX for the Mercedes SL and then the Porsche 944, but after the 911,928S4 and then a few more 300Z's and the NSX, not to mention the Lexus SC400, RX7TT you get the idea. She hates cars so now I have to buy them for her. The Z is her car I drive an SUV, except when she leaves her keys laying around.

A little OT - but, don't we all - my garage is always too small. I'm ready to put in a storage lift on one side

My wife is all over me to sell my 1995 Alty (http://homepage.mac.com/stracy01/Auto/PhotoAlbum2.html) because we also have a '03 Hemi Ram Truck (http://homepage.mac.com/stracy01/Auto/PhotoAlbum11.html) and Caravan besides my Coupe.

Can't see it for the money. Car runs great with 110k, has dedicated winter wheel set, I don't always want a truck (Quad Cab, sits 4-5 no problem). Why waste 10 years of good care and improvments just to clear some driveway space and get a few grand?

Ever since it got kicked from the garage I'm getting this - and having the car only costs me about $400/year when I look at insurance, taxes, etc. No enough return IMHO as original owner...
