no more G? miscellaneous rambling
Do what you have to do to get a house. Best investment you can make for yourself, especially in the Bay (I just bought my place in Alameda). Once you have that, then you don't feel so bad when you spend your money on things that depreciate like cars.
BTW, I've had my Tacoma for 6 years. You'll spend next to nothing on upkeep :thumbup:

I'm guessing you financed your G35 - but lets say you sell it for $30k (not an unreasonable amount) and then buy a new car. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to jump into anything over $20k. You'd save roughly $200 a month in financing charges, but you'd also lose money on selling your car plus have to pay tax on your new car (which at WA state rats is about $2,000 on a $20k car). That'd basically erase your entire savings for selling your car in the first place!
If you honestly want to save money for a house, etc... buy a Civic, xA, or Corolla. Base models with decent features run $15k, they are cheap to insure, have awesome gas milegae (a big plus now), and have good resale (except xA i think, but who knows).
