You'll all laugh, it's replacing a 1994 Camry 4 cyl 2 door! The last car my wife picked out on her own...I "helped her decide" on this one...

My IS350 replaced my 2003 G35 6mt,nav,areo package. Mods:350Z Air intake tube,Stillen sway bars,hyper grounding kit. It was a good looking car plus a fun car to drive, felt well balanced. I hated the notchy transmission at times and the cheap looking interior. IMO its still one of the best looking coupes out there but it fell short in the performance dept. Happy with the IS so far just waiting for more aftermarket parts to come out.

2004 Infiniti G35 Sedan - Sport.

Great car...I had buyers regret for days before picking up my IS350. Excellent performance, but no comparison to the fit and finish of the Lexus.

'02 Nissan Altima 3.5SE.

I bought the car new, and it served me well. I had zero issues with the car and traded it in towards my 2IS. The VQ35DE is a fantastic engine.

The worst part about that car was the interior. Everything about it was garbage. The leather was quite possibly the worst I've ever sat on.

S2000. Giving it up was like giving up a child. But I needed something with 4 doors.
