#2004 of 2757 CTS or G35? by kennynmd Jan 24, 2008 (8:28 pm)
Any suggestions between these two vehicles? A few friends have owned Nissan's in the past and they swear that the fit and finsh is terrible with squeeks and rattles. I was thnkin about a TL but a 4th Generation is allegedly in the works for 09. The G35 is a tad cheaper in price though. The CTS is a new Generation (rattles and problems?) and is more expensive to a comparably equipped G35.Anyone compared the two while shopping???

Replying to: kennynmd (Jan 24, 2008 8:28 pm) I did some extensive car shopping over the course of a year, and had all but settled on a G35 or G37. I test drove the G35, and it was beautiful car, with all the features I wanted. It was a tad snug inside the cockpit for me, (6'1, 215), and I found its outside a tad boring. But, I was all ready to buy one anyway, or perhaps a slightly used M35.   THEN, I actually SAW a 2008 CTS, and there was no comparison for me. The curb appeal, and stunning visual image of the CTS made it by far the car for me. Bigger inside where it needs to be, and regular unleaded gas to boot! I've owned mine since OCT 07, and I STILL have to stop and just look at it when I am approaching or departing the car. I just love it!
#2006 of 2757 Still the One!! by cptsully Jan 25, 2008 (7:52 pm)
I just got back from the 2008 Auto Show, and I am very happy to say that even after looking at all the new models coming out...I would STILL buy my 08 CTS all over again!   And the new MKZ, the supposed CTS killer??

Replying to: emathisen (Jan 03, 2008 6:58 pm) I'm averaging 22-24 on the highway at 75 mph (cruise control on) in the winter. I'm at 10,000 on the 08 cts 4. The best average I got was 26 mpg in the fall. Replies to this message: 150mphclub (Jan 26, 2008 5:55 am) cosmo13 (Jan 26, 2008 12:23 pm) briantucson (Jan 26, 2008 3:33 pm)

Replying to: kennynmd (Jan 24, 2008 8:28 pm) I also looked extensively at the G35 vs 328 vx CTS.   The G35 is quicker and costs less. The G35 also had higher levels of noise, vibration, and harshness.   My CTS (only 500 miles to date) has higher levels of available equipment (I had to have cooled seats). The CTS has the best interior design in this class of vehicle, along with very strong curb appeal. The CTS has slightly better fuel economy, and does so on lower octane fuel than the G35.   I'm biased, of course. Buy what you like.

Replying to: 08cts4 (Jan 25, 2008 10:13 pm) My 2008 CTS Direct Inject, AWD with 3500 miles averaged 22.2 MPG at an average hiway speed of 67MPH over 160 miles winter driving. Replies to this message: briantucson (Jan 26, 2008 3:33 pm)

Replying to: cosmo13 (Jan 26, 2008 12:23 pm) DI engine, RWD, automatic.   In city driving, I get between 17 - 18 MPG.   The sole highway trip I took (60 - 80 mph) I averaged 27.5 MPG.   Impressive for a vehicle this heavy and an engine this strong.
