was it the coupe or sedan or vert? Just asking because the weights differ. I quoted you for the sedan.
prob because he just spent like 38 k and lost to a 22k car rofl.

The auto tranny versions also have less HP then the 6 spd models for 2003 and 2004. Maybe some of the newer ones also

Lets see you trap 99 and they trap like 102-103, that doesn't sound right! he should have walked you, must have been a poor drive or wrong gear or something. Those cars are pretty strong, my friend has one and we have raced a couple times and it will no doubt pull a stock RL/SC especially from a roll.

You can definitely tell the difference between a G35 and a G37.
The new G37s come with an available AWD. But if it's anything like the GT-R's AWD, I would pass on it...

That's interesting, why? I don't like that car and never aspire to own one but the whole reason that car can handle like a ZO6 weighing in at near 4k lbs is its all wheel drive system. I may not like it but I respect what it does and how!

You should have said that, it isn't the all wheel drives fault the tranny can't stand up to the launches. If a Ford GT started blowing tanny's would you blame it on the rear wheel drive system??? The all wheel drive "system" on those cars is pretty impressive, the transmission on those cars is pretty fragile!Tyler

You make a good point. But I always assumed that it was the AWD that put too much strain on the tranny in the first place. And if it had been RWD they wouldn't be having as many issues.
Idk. I'm drunk.

he said it was a sedan. the 07-08 G35 Sedan looks just like the 09 G37 sedan. they changed the G35 to the G37 because they changed form a 3.5 liter engine to a 3.7 liter engine.

drunk? Ah to be in college again (thursday nights!), I will be near UTA later tonight, where are we drinking at?your right, if it were rear wheel drive it wouldn't have that same problem more then likely, but it would also be slower around a road course but a little faster in a straight line when moving. There are always trade offs...

Had a g35 that was behind me at a light reving and on my ass, had my girl and one of my buddys in my car. Took off at about 15mph and pulled probally 2-3 cars on him till about 100 and let off. He did a HUGE ricer fly by on the shoulder and starting whippin around cars to show off?? It was more of a.. ima take off and see if you can keep up thing then a race

its somewhate believable man tat u stuck with him.
I actually have had more trouble with the g35 coupes (maybe bc they ave work or tunes)
but I took on a g37 Type S.
I pulled him so hard, i pulled in front of him and slowed him down..
