Fun But.............
I sold my E36 M3 and bought a 2006 G35 Sport Coupe. It had 22K miles on it. It's got great power, handles great and great brakes. It gets lots of looks and sounds awesome. But........ It ain't no BMW. The interior is kinda cheesy, the clutch is horrible and the seat belts don't retract. Don't get me wrong, I love it but I'm just not passionate about it. The reason I picked it over an E46 M3 was the reliability. Having the check engine light come on every other week on the M3 was a little frustrating. Did I mention how great it sounds? Especially with the sun roof open and the windows down.
think twice before you buy
The G35 Infinity is reliable. The Bose system is excellent. The front end is solid but the steering is poor. The engine has some power but the high-end torque is non-existent! If you like the exterior styling then this is the only good said about the G35. Everything else falls below average. If engine, steering, suspension, brakes, vision, and all the other characteristics about any car are all good then one would think that the car is all good, right? Wrong! And very wrong at that! It is how everything works in coherence that is of 100% importance, and this car (G35) has nothing working in coherence! American, German cars will be honest with gas mileage, Infinity will not. Think Twice!

should have bought a 3 series
any comparison between this uncomfortable, gas guzzler to a "luxury" car is a mistake. it's fast, but wow, 18mpg combined and the seat controls biting my right leg and throwing my spine out of alignment make want to sell this thing today. it looks and drives fine, but anyone concerned with comfort and economics should avoid the g35x like the plague. i'll be the guy who leaves it running on the dc beltway and walks off the 495 parking lot to the nearest bar. good luck...
Turns into a pretty lemon
Make sure you get a full diagnostic on it. I had a headgasket issue at 150k miles. The repair cost more than the car. Ended up scrapping it. It was a fun and a snappy car when it was running at 100%. The massive fuel tank took me from texas to Wisconsin on 2.5 fuel trips. Since i dont know squat about the mechanical upkeep of cars i ended up getting rid of it. However if you are mechanically inclined, this vehicle whouldve had easily another 100k on it. Only if you baby it (i still let the car rip on highways in the middle of nowhere).

Nice Ride!
Overall a great car. Very good pick up and nice stereo. I didn't get the Bose, but this one is pretty good for a basic one.
