i saw them, and they're pretty, but i wasn't like upwards of 35k impressed.

 

i just saw my first X the other day and in the same day i saw a 2nd one. i'm still upset that they went with a more "econo" look than years past. IMO the VIII and IX just LOOK mean and scream Rally... the new one just looks like a econo sports car. i also don't think that they are worth the 35-39 they are starting out at.
my room mate has a Z and i've driven it a few times. it's quick, but not fast. i do like how it handles though, very nice, tight suspension.
finally putting some money in the bank so i may be making a vehicle purchase toward the end of this year or beginning of next year. possible IX. not sure yet. still tossing the idea of a 2gb GSX... but that's down the road.
