Best Entry-Level Sedan For The Money

2007 Infiniti G35 Journey 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)

Review

Leased a '07 G35 Auto Journey w/sunroof & wheels/tires package. Great car for the $$. Fun, classy & just enough room for us & our 2 yr. old... Didn't want to pay for Premium package since I didn't care for fancy Bose, homelink, MP3 player, memory seats + steering & mirrors, auto-lumber support, dimming mirror or bluetooth. But wished it had heated seats, so I opted for the stand alone sunroof + wheels/tires since the G35 Sports rode a little harsh & Journey more suited for us w/the toddler. This car is very very fast (I came from a Subaru Forester XT which was a total sleeper) and wants to go all the time. Handles extremely well and interior is comfy.

Favorite Features

Power, handling and ride quality, sound of the engine/exhaust, price, subtle yet sporty styling, push-button keyless start, 18-in wheels & tires package.

Suggested Improvements

More interior compartments/storage space. Journey package should include heated & memory seats. Car can be touchy & need to step on gas very gently if U want to go slow, otherwise the car gets super torquey & wants to blast off. Gas can improve also & why not fold down back seats!?!?

Review

That says it all. I have owned this car a week.This car turns heads, more than my BMW528i, then snaps their necks as they watch it disappear. Unbelievably fast, it will challenge you to keep up with it. I bought mine loaded with Tech, Nav and Premium with Rosewood Trim. Love the stereo, Nav, Voice Rec. This car is a true pleasure to drive. I am always looking for excuses to go for a drive. Test drove the Acura TL- S, the BMW330i. The Infinity hands down outperforms them and doesn't look like everyone else on the road.

Favorite Features

Love the Nav, just learning it will keep me busy for awhile, the Nav manual is almost as big as the owners manual! Love the engine, the autorev on downshift and the way it doesn't "shift out from under you" as you lift for a turn!

Suggested Improvements

The CF flash spot, make it more universal. ie.. SD, XD compatible, allow more features in Nav to work while moving, a passenger could operate it for you. While you inspire the G's out of the "G"!

car of the year

Written by: Researcher on 03/22/2007

Vehicle

2007 Infiniti G35 Sport 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)

Review

It is a no brainer. Research and test drive the Lexus, BMW, Mercedes etc. Compare their options, price and driving experience with the Infiniti G35. BMW and Mercedes charge lots more for their cars and they have fewer features (unless you want to pay even more money to them). The BMW and Mercedes only have a single CD player and they have no hard drive record feature like the Infiniti. Infiniti is the clear choice this year. I have driven mine for 5000 miles now and it is absolute perfection. I have driven it hard through corners and up to 145 mph. The car handles perfectly under all conditions. You cannot compare the other cars and the price without saying that Infiniti is the best of all

Favorite Features

Active Cruise--No need to touch the gas or break pedal on a 300 mile+ trip. You set the follow distance and let the car do the driving. Records each CD that you play-1000+ songs. Handling and power Navigation and phone features Active high intensity headlights Cockpit Smooth transmission etc.

Suggested Improvements

voice recognition can be difficult if there is any background noise Navigation led me to a residential area when I wanted a Japanese restaurant If it is possible to keep the same performance, increase gas mileage. Otherwise, the decreased gas mileage is worth the trade off for the performance.

G35X Black on Black

2007 Infiniti G35 x 4dr Sedan AWD (3.5L 6cyl 5A)

Review

After driving an 02 BMW530, looked at several 07's. After 2 months my thoughts are these: Bad Fuel Econ. 13.5 city (my 530I got 17), 19 hwy. Fun to drive, great handling in the snow. Sound sys. is great, Bluetooth sync. up without any problems. Love to drive the car - great off the line pickup. Good sized trunk for the golf clubs.

Favorite Features

Keyless entry and push button start. Sound sys. Bluetooth.

Suggested Improvements

Fuel Econ. - Because the car starts out in 1st gear when driving in auto mode, the econ. is going to suffer. I would suggest a change. When in auto mode start out in second gear, as the BMW 530I does. If you want more pick up switch to the triptronic mode and that would start you out in 1st gear.

Review

The car is a lot of fun to drive. Hit the gas and the car moves. I love the sound of the engine as the RMPs climb. The technology is integrated very well. I have all the packages and it is going to take awhile to get up to speed on all the car's capabilities. The road feel is excellent, much better than the comparable Lexus. The back seat area could use more room but my teenage boys love riding in the car so much they don't mind the lack of foot space. This car replaced by Audi A6 and is much more fun to drive. I liked the all wheel drive of the Audi so much I go it on the G35 as well. Need to wait for some snow to see how it does.

Favorite Features

Engine, road feel, technology, looks - very nice lines! The price is fair as well, looks of value for the money!

Suggested Improvements

More feet room in the back seat. Better gas mileage would be nice but in fairness, the car is so fun to drive the gas mileage would improve if I stopped putting my foot into the gas pedal. Maybe I'll try more conservative driving next year...

Infiniti G - Fun to Drive

Written by: houdriver on 03/07/2007

Vehicle

2007 Infiniti G35 Journey 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)

Review

I think the Infiniti G is a great value play considering the performance and initial quality. More than anything, new Infiniti buyers will enjoy a very entertaining driving experience. This is a fast car that holds the road nicely. I spent a lot of time driving a Journey with 17 inch wheels prior to purchase, but decided to add the performance tire and wheel package. I think the car has a more refined and quieter ride at highway speeds on the 18 inch Bridgestone tires. The drawback is that the 18" tires can not be rotated like the 17's.

Favorite Features

Push button keyless start, 306HP engine is fantastic, fine-vision instrumentation, dual exhaust/dual intake, feel of the steering wheel and automatic shifter, weather tight compartments for battery, electrical, and master cylinder. 18 inch wheels and tires, warranty.

Suggested Improvements

Trunk mechanism and fuel door need some refinement...its just too hard to close....power assist? Interior lighting works great, but map and overhead lamps look a bit cheap and misplaced in this car. It would be nice to have some footwell lighting. LED white reverse and license plate lighting.

G35 Sedan Loaded

2007 Infiniti G35 Sport 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6M)

Review

I bought a black G35 sedan from Infiniti of Chantilly. Got the works. Although the stereo isn't digital surround, it still was the best in class. great tech features, good bass, hard drive to store all your cd's. The car gets fast, quick. Feels like 40 when you're doing 70. Bought the active steer, suspn.'s a little stiffer, but it handles great. Nav is decent, back up cam had better features than others'. Still haven't used the Intell. Cruise Control, but it's too much fun to drive. Was initially leaning towards a Type-S, but the feel of RWD and the Studio on Wheels sealed the deal.

Favorite Features

Power, Acceleration, Handling, STEREO, 6 speed manual. Free oil changes, car washes, annual detailing, 2 year sched. maintenance, and more from dealership. Looking for reasons to go drive, and still driving after you can't think of any.

Suggested Improvements

Wanted AWD in a manual, mileage isn't the best, but others in class aren't that much better. Just remember this is a SPORTS sedan, w/ 306 hp and you'll love it.
