Nice car. Pics are so dark I can't tell if it's a coupe or sedan?

Good choice. I think a lot of the current GS owner's are sick of the sale old shape and lack of redesign for the GS and need something a little more exiting. I think its a short matter of time as well before my GS is gone as well.

I'm gonna guess it's a coupe since I think the headlamps are shaped differently on the coupe and sedan, with the headlights flared out more towards the hood on the coupe. The airdam seems similar on both styles, but I could be wrong...

Blackmarket,

Thats a beautiful car man.
The G35C is as hot now as the GS was when it first came out.

How do u compare the performance between the 2?

The G is still in its break in period. I have not floored it yet. I can tell you that it is way more responsive. The GS would lag a second of two but this car does not. It feels faster but probably because its a smaller car and has a louder exhaust. The data says that its the same speed as my previous GS4, and it probably is. The G35 though is alot more fun to drive; even without speeding.

Auto, but the manual mode shifting is quite realistic unlike eshift on the lex.
