why not look at a newer speed3? I have an 08 speed3 an 11 speed3 and a g37s within walking distance of me...been in/driven all three of them and the g37 wont seem faster than the others and it doesn't have the utility of the ms3...but they are very nice commuter cars which are pretty quick..his is the coupe though not a sedan so its a little bit different...also..eww on the Maxima
