Why don't you just get a 2007 Accord V6 with Navi? Has a lot of bells and whistles, and has good power. Plus you have an option for the 6-speed
. You can get one out the door for under 30 grand. If i was in your situation, that's what i would do.

You can do better than that here. The Accords, full boat, are going for under 25k. Screaming bargain if you ask me. Only downside is it has absolutely no cache (doesn't bother me though, I own one )

you got that right. I hated my G35 coupe, I will never own a vq[although it has recieved countless accolades] ever again.I still think the IS 350 is your best bet. It has the best performance/luxury for the money IMO.

The new IS feels like a boat.

Just curious....why? What did you not like?

1. I thought my old MY00 s2k mad a lot of clunking noises when shifting gears, however the G definitely takes 1st place.
2. The clutch on the G has to be the worst clutch ever.[imo] I cant really explain it but the way the clutch grabs, well.. It pretty much sucked.
3. The interior[by far the cheapest interior ever] I think the interior is up to par with the altima and the altima having the edge.
4. Rattles galore. Ac vents, center console, and dashboard.
5. I went to close the sun roof and accidentally hit this plastic part and it came off.
6. Cheap paint. I have paint chips mostly on the sides and the back.
So you must be thinking, why did I buy this car? well, I needed a new car quick in may of 05 and purchased within a day. Yeah yeah, I know I should have thought it through but too late now. Anywho, I think cosmetically the car looks great. I like the body and the lines. But thats pretty much all it has going for it.
