I love those G35's. They are so sexy! But I'd HAVE to get the version with the Brembro brakes and MT6SP. Also since I'm black, I'd have to get the navigation too. Gotta have a little bling bling going on!

Of course, the way one options a G 35 Coupe or an RX 8 is also a matter of individual tastes. But on two things I hope we can all agree. First, a former s2k owner who MUST get something else because he needs some (small) back seats would be much happier with a G 35 Coupe than an RX 8. Second, the G 35 Coupe is really a "stretched version" of the 350Z that looks better and less like a pregnant turtle because it is stretched. If "they" came and took away my s2k and gave me a G 35 Coupe, there would actually be a few things I would like better (heresy, I know) like the torque. If "they" came and took away my s2k and gave me an RX 8, there would be NOTHING I would like better about it.

Thanks,
Richard

victory:

I hope there are no "PC Police" around. If you want to buy a car with a navigation system, go for it. Of course, the s2k does not offer it, so no choice. But our newer car, the '04 MB C320 did offer it. We did not get it as when we go that far, we fly. But for those into long road trips, the Nav system could be a real boon. It is not a matter of our ancestory, but our use for the car, that dictates the options.

Thanks,
Richard

I'd have to agree with RazorV3.. the TL is simply beautiful, even if you don't get the type S that thing is already fast. IMO the TSX is the TL's little brother, doesn't really "wow" me you know. As for the G35 coupe compared to the rx8, is there even a comparison? G35 is simply a sweet ride. Well just wanted to wish you luck with whatever you choose.
