My late dentist use to have a 2003 Infinity G35 coupe. Hoo boy, what a looker that car is! He told me he was going to give it to his son when he got his driver's licence. That made me sad. Giving a kid that car is just asking for trouble. In fact, that car is too good for any kid. He must have made good on that because I'd see him driving some ratty sedan. That's just depressing! It's probably what killed him.
