Pros:
Exhaust note, 280 hp and 270 lbs of torque, sport tuned suspension,
keyless doors, trunk, ignition, bluetooth phone and looks that won't get old
for many years.
|
|
Cons:
Road noise w/19" wheels, fast tire wear, paint chips way to easy on
front end, Bose stereo is good but not great, glove compartment fit(see
light on at night through cracks because light is always on while headlights
are on), and interior body noise from car flexing.

after
1 year of use. The car is fun to drive and gets may looks. Over all
fit and finish is very good.

Review:
This is my first Infiniti, and I am pretty impressed. I totally dig the
power and the low gumble at start-up. The handling is also exceptional. As
much as like the car, I hope they can fix some of the interior design flaws.
The location of the seat controls are in an awkward position. They are
difficult to see and use, plus the plastic housing around them presses
against my leg when I am driving. On long trips it is very uncomfortable.
The head room is a bit to be desired. I am only 6'1", but when I hit a bump,
on ocassion, my head hits the roof. Outside of some interior problems, in
all it is a great car. However, I think I may opt for the Infiniti FX next
time.

Pros:
Styling, performance and value for the dollar. All that plus Infiniti
quality and great dealer service (Alta Infiniti in Woodbridge). Not to
mention the "fun quotient"
|
|
Cons:
No arm rest in center in the back/no trunk pass thru for longer items
without having to fold the rear seats. No separate 12V plug for cell phone
charger. Cosmetics really and easily forgiven although they would be nice to
have!

Review:
I had a 2003 G35 Sedan previously because the coupe wasn't out when I
got it in 2002. The overall package is fantastic; great looks, awesome
performance, reasonable fuel usage day to day and Infiniti quality and
reliability. I bought the 2006 M6 package with the 298 hp / 6 speed. The car
never fails to leave a smile on my face. My wife, who insisted I should get
the coupe by the way (eat your hearts out guys), drives it too and she
always has a blast. I know some people mourn the fact the Brembo brakes are
gone but from what I have heard they where troublesome anyways... The car
corners like it is on rails, stops on a dime (even without the Brembos) and
nails you to the back of the seat when you stomp on the long pedal on the
right. More than one person has said that it is "one sexy car". I love it!

Review:
I fell in love with every aspect of the G35 coupe from the first time I
saw it in late 2003. I was in the market earlier this year and I went to my
Infiniti dealer thinking I might finally have the car of my dreams. I saw a
black on black 6 speed coupe without the wing. This is definitely the
perfect car for.......wait where's the Brembo brakes?? The dealer explained
that they discontinued the Brembo brakes due to high maintenance costs or
something lame like that. Whatever!
I could deal with the standard brakes so I continued to the interior.
Everything looked good inside until I actually sat down. Being a 6'3"
corn-fed American, I immediately reached for the seat adjustment buttons to
drop the seat bottom down. The seat dropped a little but not enough to keep
my head from feeling uncomfortably close to the headliner. Even after
reclining the seat back the seating position was still awkward. Either I was
leaning too far back or sitting too close to the headliner.
I couldn't believe it!!! My dreams were shattered. Sure I planned on
replacing the stock seats with racing buckets anyway, but who wants to rely
on that when you are committing to a near 40k purchase? I sure don't.
Hopefully someone at Nissan is listening to my plea! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
put a higher level of adjustability in the seats of the 2007 G35 coupe and I
will be your friend forever!!
Oh and......bring back the Brembos on the coupe! Thanks in advance for a
great car!

Pros:
Stylish exterior. Impressive performance. Fun-to-drive factor. HID projectors new for '06. Bluetooth.
|
|
Cons:
Paint quality leaves a LOT to be desired. Needs better gear synchros. Interior storage compartments are all too small.

Review:
I can't sit behind the wheel of this car and not grin ear-to-ear. It's a
blast to drive. The exterior styling is fantastic and garners plenty of
attention when out on the road. Acceleration is very spirited and handling
is impressive in light of the cars weight. HID projectors are a significant
improvement for '06. Bluetooth handsfree phone feature is not only
convenient, but necessary in the 6MT. The paint quality is
BY FAR the worst of any car I have ever owned. After 6 months of ownership,
my front bumper is in worse condition than almost every other car I've owned
after 3-5 years. Other gripes include:
-Interior storage compartments that are all too small to be very useful
-Rear seat power entry assist is very slow
-Sunroof closure is very slow
-Bose system is not worth the additional cost
-Poor fuel economy (19mph)is a harsh reality
-No hydraulic hood dampers
-VDC (Vehicle Dynamic Control) can be intrusive at times
-No Intelligent Key with 6MT
-No power side rear-view mirror as part of seat memory
-Could definitely benefit from more/better synchros
-Changing any bulb in the headlight assembly is very inconvenient
