I own a G2 and have been shopping for a G3. I get car buying fever sometimes. Over the past few months of doing various test drives I have come to a similar conclusion.

The G2 tegs are holding up very well. I would say that of the 6 G3 tegs I've test driven, only 2 were noticably better than what I currently own.

Mine has fewer squeeks and road noise. I also believe the suspensions are very comparable. My G2 handles as well as any of the G3 I drove. I don't think mine accelerates as well though.

The darker interiors hold up really well too. I have grey cloth that looks way better than even a few year old tan interior.

I guess I'll have to keep it for a few more years......needs paint BAD.
