Yeah G35 is a sweet car, go for it!!! VQ35 is definitely the best V-6 on the market right now.
But it in a matter of realistic terms you better think about being one of the first to get a Toyota Prius. One day you'll thank me for it.

721 miles so far <mostly dyno-tunes> at only 4 1/2 pounds of boost.........407 HP and 374 Lbs torque.
All of this has been done by the dealer so the car retains warranty for a 260 dollar one time charge.
At 3,000 miles they install the 8lb.boost pulley and i can't wait

Ok, pretty sure you're just gonna get laughed at... This is definately not the right target audience for that conspiracy theory.

I thought you were reading my oil thread Eric.
I hope it doesn't happen, but don't take what I say as something for granted and something you can just laugh off.Russia and Putin just basically dissolved Yukos oil company, so they can now play their hand of cards in the dirty oil game.
Also once King Fahd actually dies...and he's been living on life support for about the last 8-10 years since his last stroke, it's going to get a lot more interesting again.
I hate to bursts people's bubbles and stuff but that's just the reality of it all.
Ok, I will reserve my comments, concerns, gripes, bitches and complaints for my oil thread and DOO section.

Porsche's have a really awkward driving position that takes some time to get used to. Some people love how closely cluttered and slammed to the right the pedals are, some don't.
Plus, just think $130 oil changes.
You should go for broke and get a Ruf Yellowbird.

I think even the new ones are pretty pricey. I'd have to find out for sure though.
Anyways you can get a Big-Bird. They are pretty hard. But one was for sale on Barrett Jackson a while back:
http://www.barrett-jackson.com/aucti....asp?id=175174
200mph+, 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds.
Just think, you could mess with anyone as much as you wanted, and no one would be able to touch you.
But it wouldn't make for a good vehicle to stop by at Starbucks for your morning latte.
