I do. We have family in Hayden and we're planning on moving to centralish-northernish AL within the year.
Well maybe we'll host an AL TYF meet sometime
You wouldn't be too far from me. We can trade underwear.

My eyes have been affixed to an Infiniti Q50S lately with almost stalker-like attention. Maybe Leonardo pulled an Inception job on me. I feel a purchase coming on, against my better financial judgement maybe.

can't make up my mind, thinking about one of these Infiniti M56x, 420hp, 13.3 second car-stock and prices are not insane

i have a friend with the granddaddy of this car. 2009 infinity G37S sedan. 6 speed car
I wish they would put the V8 in the Maxima that would be a sexi bish right there, apparently the current generation Nissan V8's are the last of them, they aren't going to make any more V8 motors to many EPA regulations and not enough enthusiast to make developing another motor worth there time. :bawl: they said if Ford can do it with v6's so can they.

D'oh. I'm not a big Nissan fan but that sucks

i'm not really either but I have had a couple of them, I like the Maxima styling but they only put v6's in them, i'm just looking around for another car (sedan)

In the early 2000's the Maxima had the same VQ35DE as the base Nissan 350Z. TDIB did a review on one with VQ35HR heads on it and it was actually pretty cool
Just looks like another sedan to me.
Sleepa :D

Saw a grayish/bluish (Pacific Slate or Magnetic Gray?) G8 at a car lot today in Baton Rouge. Looked really clean. You interested in a fly-in/drive-out purchase?

I may end up going that route since there is not a lot of these around, I just keep doing random searches and see what pops up. I am just looking around at this point I paid off the Yukon today so I have to either keep squirreling away money or get financed, if I use Capital one again I have to buy thru one of there dealer networks. I am also considering a Infiniti m56x those are AWD 7speed and same horsepower but there is not a lot of those around either lol. I think sales were pretty much on par with the Pontiacs about 10k per model year.

Here is my '66 L72 Corvette coupe. It rides rough, steers like a dump truck,View attachment 217474 View attachment 217475 hates Ethanol, hot in the summer, cold in the winter, turn the key and that is music to my ears

I think I was around 14 or 15 when my dad's buddy brought his '69 over for a ride. It was a dark metallic forest green convertible Stingray. I'll never forget burning my calf on one of those hot side pipes climbing into it. Helped make a man out of me.

There's a red SS at the local Toyota dealer. Looks really good

I remember being maybe 4 yrs old, was with my father and he stopped by the body shop my uncle was working at and there was a 1956 or '57 black corvette in the shop with rear quarter damage, I remember hearing my uncle complaining, this fiberglass POS, I was standing face to face with this black beauty and I can remember that it had a big smile on it's face [grille] ever since I have been hooked. I have never been without a corvette since 19 yrs old
