best of luck with it, it's a beautiful car. just curious, why not get a G8? I had a GP GXP and got rid of it for a few reasons, one being the TBSS was RWD. fast car and front drive drove me insane (having said that I have an 06 maxima for work and it's plenty quick but much wasier to launch compared to the monster torque from the LS4) anyway, hope you enjoy it..
