[Shotimes] OT: 2004 Infinity G35

[Carl Prochilo]

I figured you knew the difference between the Max and the G35.  ;)

Now with respect to the G35x (where x denotes AWD), the performance specs
are less than its 2 wheel drive sibling.  This means that I started off
wanting the AWD model, but when I saw the numbers I thought twice about
it.  The other thing to know is that AWD is not popular down here, so the
dealer doesn't have any.

>From what little research I've done, it looks like the 6MT model is only
fetching a few bucks over invoice.  There are also incentives to get rid
of these cars.
