If someone could set me up with a G35 against with my stock CLK500 that'd be great and I'd have no problem running in whatever conditions the G35 owners feels like. Any NY G35'ers wanna run? I'll go for fun or ca$h, whatever floats your boat.

Why are you guys debating about how slow the G35s are? This is like trying to decide which is slower, a snail or a slug.

More like the exhaust note you hear on 5-6 different cars

FX 35 /45 G35c /sedan / 350z, Maxima, Murano, not very exotic if you ask me.

So instead of bashing the little nissan, where's the race? I thought someone wanted to run and then all the chickens start to hide.

How about against an E36 M3 or M332i I have? Both kinda on par with a G35.

i kind of started this post because i killed a G35 - not to diss them. they're actually very good cars. just not good enough to beat my 376TQ beast

you really shouldn't compare cars like 500, 550, and 55 (i think it obvious why i'm not including the 600 or 65) to the G35. they're simply way better cars -a lot faster and nicer.
you should compare it to the clk350. it might be slightly faster, but that's it. it has nothing else on the car. you guys have to remember that the g35 was tuned to go fast, but the clk350 is meant to be more of a luxury car.

but when u compare 350z vs. slk350 - i put my money on the slk.

Everything is relevant. To some people your stock 12 sec E55 is slow, to some its blazing fast

A car that runs under 14 seconds on the 1/4 mile is still pretty quick. I personally feel that a car should be in the 11's to be considered a fast street car. And yes, I am into street racing so I know what I'm talking about.

Sounds good bro! I'll have to bring the M332i(325i) because I took the insurance off the M3 so I could put the Talon on my policy. Taking the Talon to MIR.

How come you never come out to Captree with that beauty bro? oh yes I forgot your priorities,can't knock u for that.

I'll certainly try to make it to NJ next Thurs. nite. take care
