Default New Car, Third VQ; 2012 G37 Journey-Sport

Added a third VQ to my stable. I'll be taking delivery of a 2012 Blue Slate G37 Journey-Sport sedan today. Been eyeing the G37 sedan for some time and finally test drove one and enjoyed it. I'll get some pics as soon as it get delivered to the house. No major mods plans since I have my Z and I did choose to lease. Just can't wait to enjoy it.
