It is a complete luxury sports sedan. The electronic toys work well and are actually useful in a daily driver....esp the keyless and voice activation. The Nissan 6 is extraordinary...you already know that, your wife has a G35. The G is quicker and much more tossable. The M is a cruiser. I haven't been so comfortable in a car since my 9000's were newish. The chair height seats may be higher than a 9000's.
I still miss a hatch. The M is far flashier than my tastes..the 4 tailpipes are the least of it...they're in the back, I never see them. I am getting used to it(scary), and EVERYONE who gets in raves about the interior. I like the outside...very clean and simple, but assertive.
I had a memory loss in my bluetooth phonebook...they replaced the entire computer...only bobble so far. I don't enjoy the dealer...very stuffy compared to my friends at the Saab store....but the service has been satifactory.
The experience so far has been way better than my experiences with my 2 GM Saabs ('95 900SET and '99 9-5 wagon). I am in no way bored, and have found NO "holes". IF GM continues with Saab, I think I've found another "niche" car I can really enjoy owning and driving....I cross shopped BMW(5), Audi(A6), and Lexus(GS), Cadillac(all3), and Chrysler(C) before I got the M. None of the others seemed the least bit special to me...the BMW and Audi people were quite intimidating...not my style at all.
I still miss my Saabs...they just aren't anymore...
