If I was looking at the low 30s price range and nothing lower, I'd go (in order): GTO, 300C, G35, then maybe the CTS.

If the low 30s was my price limit, then it'd be Mach 1, GTO, Mustang GT, 300C, G35, and maybe the Supercharged Monte Carlo SS (add a smaller pulley, and it should be quite a ride! ).

G35 seems to be the better bargain of the two. I wish the CTS-V could be had for 40K. I would buy one.

After working at an Infiniti dealership for a while, I have to say congrats on picking the G35. That car is def on the top of my list of 'next' cars. BTW, from all the reports that I have read (mostly C&D, but also most other mags too) the sedan is a touch slower in a straight line than the coupe, and about = or maybe better than it in the twisties (very impressive considering it has skinnier tires ).

Big Als Z what are you smoking

Personally, with a 6 speed, areo package (0 lift frt & rear and 0.26 cD of drag) and sport package, I don't see the GTO or non- "V" CTS coming close.

Word, plus wiht the 6 speed the G35 a mid 14 second car. The CTS is a mid 15 second car isnt it? I really dont see the CTS keeping up with a G35 4 door at all around a road course or down teh drag strip.
