i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

Again, Altima SE-R. 4 door sexy. 5-speed Auto. V6 that acts like a V8.

But then again... looking at my aviator - it seems I'm attracted to those 3 letters.

TL's and G35s are out of reach with 30 grand, maximas and RX-8's right at that price point but only when they are stripped... After taxes and title and plates my parents TL came to just over 43 thousand. My mouth about dropped whn they told me that...

if thats the case - go with the Mazda Tribute. Nearly the same vehicle but better in almost every catagory.

you dont have to give up your celi right? This is just a car to tote around to work and back, and have your S.O. drive now and then right? I would go super sensible and get an Accord hybrid V6. Decent interior, great gas milage, super safe, low insurance.

My first answer would have been GTO they claim $33,000 but I can talk $3,000 off. Instead a Grand Prix GTP Comp G, bad ass handling and really good performance, boosted V6 and paddle shift, $26,800 fully loaded.

I love the idea of a company car! My dad got his Solara that way and in probably 4 years if hes still one of the top sellers he can get a BMW!

New cars every 4 years are awesome!

Well, invoice price on the TL is $30,164. If you shop, you should be able to get close to that. Of course, tax, title, and license are going to be on top of that. Did your parents get the navigation system? Thats an expensive upgrade. $43k is shocking though for that car.
