Used 2006 INFINITI G35 Consumer Reviews
Problems at 200 miles
Don't accept one without testing it thoroughly first - even a brand new one. Bad clutch judder in first and reverse especially on hills (evident at 100 miles then getting progressively worse). Gets worse as clutch warms. Infiniti garage says its the same on all new 06MTs, if I had known this, I would not have bought the car. The other two I drove did not make a banging noise when I release the clutch. Excellent car spoiled by poor customer support - denial by mechanics and a poor clutch design or faulty components.
Can someone say Fun!
Having the chance to wake up every morning and open the gargage door to see the beautiful sight of a metal machine. Not just any machine but one of the best coupes out there under 35k. The power, sound, and enjoyment of driving it makes the g35 the best coupe hands down. Being able to hit those corners with percise turns and the growl of the exhaust as it passes you is amazing. INfiniti ROcks!

No comparison in price segment - BUY IT
Z: Better instrument cluster but not back seat, creature comforts cost extra. Not as elegant and stylish 3-Series: Way overpriced just for the brand-name. Underpowered (in versions costing less thank 40k). IS: 4 doors. Not fun without $8k in technology options. RX-8:Amazing handling and grip. Ugly exterior. Boy-racer image (but less than that of a Mustang heh). Needs to be redlined for any form of performace which gets annoying fast. Mustang GT: did not even bother to try G35: This car simply makes me smile. I just simply feel good when i am driving it or just simply staring at its uber sexy form. The Bose system is pretty decent as well. In short, this is a true feel good car !!!!!!
Youth Recaptured
I liked my 2003 G35 so much I traded for a 2006 just like it. The most noticeable difference: the brakes are just as powerful but no longer hyper- sensitive, i.e. grabby. Maneuverability and instant throttle response make highway or city driving a delight...at any speed (I had the 2003 up to 120 mph once - I won't tell you where - and it felt rock-solid). I enjoy the 2006's added features - high intensity headlights, dual-zone a/c, power passenger seat, and garage door opener, but they're "gravy" on what was already a wonderfully thought out car. It "fits like a glove," seats four comfortably, and looks the way a sport sedan ought to look. At 68 I feel young again.

It can fix any mood, release frustation and bring a smile to your face. Ahh. it makes me poetic as well i guess.
2006 Infiniti G35x w Premium
I really do love this car. I did a lot of research after owning a 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer. I was after a clean modern looking car with the gadgets. It has premium Bose with the sub. Get it. It has the bluetooth which I like. I know it didn't have an ipod adapter but knew of a unit I could buy for $100 online and had Best Buy install for $50. This is a must too. You can control your ipod through the steering wheel. Overall, great pickup, performance, good in snow, good reliability so far. I bought it used and may have picked a different color other than grey. That's it. Love this car. Now my wife wants one.
From Lexus SC 430 to this
I had purchased a Lexus SC 430 in 2002 and I only had to date (8.26.06) 32,000 miles but I was needed more room in a vehicle and leaving in Florida we have alot of rain and the traction wasn't stable enough to go over 80 on the hwy. I get a new car every so often but I loves this convertible, hence I kept it so long. I went car shopping today and drove a Lexus Es 300, Acura TL and others. I was upside down on my car and dealer gave me the best deal. I bought the G 35 Sedan Premium package and I love it! What a sturdy ride and turns great while driving fast. I am so in love with this car, not just for the money, but quality and resilience. This is a definite awesome buy!
A great car, it saved our lives.
We owned the infinity g35 for 6 months. It was a pleasure to drive.The gas mileage was good and the car gave a stable ride and was very reactive to road conditions. It had more than enough power and at higher speeds cornered very well. The best feature however was the safety factor! The car was involved in an accident where a car in the opposing lane crossed a median and basically tore apart the entire drivers side from front headlight to the rear panel. The front and side airbags deployed and probably saved our lives! We were the only ones that walked away from that multi car accident. The car was totaled by the insurance company..We are buying another (identical) one to replace it.
Awesome Car !
Absolutely recommend this awesome car to anyone looking for a luxury coupe with a 350Z under it's skin! I'm 6 foot 2+ and 230 lbs. and extremely comfortable in either front seat.My buddy drove it recently and said it had better acceleration and handling and was more comfortable and roomier than his 7 Series Sport BMW! Upscale yet affordable ... it doesn't get better than this!
Luv it, luv it, luv it!!
Had an FX35...It was very nice...Now have G35 Coupe...Love it!!! Feel more like a part of the vehicle. Hugs corners. Very responsive.
