The looks take some time to grow on you. The more I look at the car, the more I like it. Imagine it lowered sitting on 19 inch Volks, and it suddenly looks pretty darn aggressive. Pictures do not do it justice.

Congrats again GTM...I think you are the first shop to aquire a G37 6speed coupe. Hopefully we'll be the second! I still think you stole my color, Sam!

This is the 6MT model, in 5th gear it exceeded the MPH limit on the Dyno and cut the run short. 5th gear + 7,500rpm = very high speeds

That dyno was a baseline on the stock motor, right?
Yes completely stock motor.

The highest was 279/235. Not so bad for a bone stock car at the wheels.
