Nice choice!

Just for your comparison when purchasing, my wife's '07 TSX gets 26-27 combined MPG with roughly 70% highway, 30% in-town.

Oddly enough, the car feels pretty snug on the inside (i imagined it being large on the inside, like my GTI felt).. maybe because there isnt too much room between my head and the roof (i like this). Kinda gives the illusion that the car is smaller than it is.

Its pretty fun to drive, feels very similar to the 370z. Not sure if they are different, but it feels like it has taller gears. 1-2nd in the Z could be pretty wild. This is more tame, but 2-3rd pulls nicely. Same exhaust note, you just dont hear as much from the cabin.

Seats are great. Nice leather, good / adjustable bolster support.


It was actually between this and a 335i.... I picked this because it came loaded at 4-5k less than a same model / mileage 335i. And i know my way around Nissans better than BMW's and would feel more comfortable owning one past the warranty period.

G37 S Looks better IMHO. Nice grab, been looking at them myself, but I think I'm head in the direction of a Subaru... More utility, dirt road, and snow bound also.
