Used 2005 INFINITI G35 Consumer Reviews
Black Beauty
I cannot due justice to the bang for your buck with this vehicle. I have the performance package, obsidian black on chrome 18" wheels, fin and molding kit. Willow leather interior fully loaded with nav and 225 watt Bose system. I black tinted the rear windows. Does anyone remember Night Rider? A K&N air filter gives it about 5 more horses that pushes it to 285 hp. The car growls when I hit it. I turn more heads than a Paris Hilton video. This vehicle is solid and and true performer. I am a V8 guy normally. I went from Jag super charged V8 that put out 370 hp. I was concerned about losing that huge punch that only a big V8 can deliver at any speed. I found it! No regrets.
5AT G35 Coupe
Even with the 5AT transmission, the coupe is a very fast and fun car to drive. The manumatic mode helps to overcome any shortcomings of having a manual, particularly in heavy traffic. The sport tuned suspension is a well recommended option, the 19" wheels look great and the ride is smoother with this car than on previous models with 17" wheels. Only downside to the car so far is the seats have side bolsters that tend to jab most people in the shoulder or back, but otherwise an extremely comfortable, well built and luxurious sports coupe that you can get for $40k or less.

Careful buying used
I purchased it used, pretty sure the previous owner didn't know how to drive a manual transmission that well considering after 2000 miles my clutch, hydrolic cylinder, and flywheel required replacement. Aside from that the car has been a dream
edmunds wrong about poor quality
i have owned the 2005 g35 for 2 weeks and found it to be the best performing car that i have ever owned. the materials are just fine, so is the design. this car is a well kept secret.
This is a real blast
OK I traded my FX35 which I owned for 6 months, liked it. I wanted something sporty and quick. Reseached the anniv.Z, Mazda RX8, BMW 3 & Crossfire.The obvious was the G355M.Great styling and it is quick, as fast as the Z with more comfort and function.No sunroof in the Z.Rx8 too slow,BMW too over priced for what you get, not to mention the service costs.Crossfire cool design and very quick,but Chrysler service is notorius for being poor and they hate to do warrenty work.
