Used 2006 INFINITI G35 Coupe Consumer Reviews
A blast to drive
Acceleration is nice but could use a little more in gears 1-3. Passing is no problem and taking corners is fun as the car just sticks to the road. The shifting is a little unrefined and you really feel it in both the stick and the clutch. Overall comfort is nice and you sit nice and low to the ground. Drink holders on the manual are not in the easiest place to reach and drinks can get in the way when your shifting.
Autocross your G35
Get out there and autocross your G35, it is a blast, and the car is very competitive even with the length of the wheel base. I have run twice in the last couple of weeks and finished ahead of all but one 350Z, all the Mustangs and Camaros and all the most of the Corvettes. A word of warning, the stock tires on the 19 inch wheels are no match for the power exiting corners, get some Kumhos 710 on 9 x 18 in the front and 10 x 18 in the rear and strap yourself in for a great time. Take off the traction control and go Z hunting.

Wicked nice car ;)
Not the fastest car on the planet but a nice balance of power, handling and luxury. Had an 03 sedan looked at some other models but came back to infiniti and picked up a 06 coupe.
Best Car I've Owned
First car I've owned that I can truly say it's worth every penny out of my pocket...I truly believe in this product and my next car is going to be another G35 coupe....2009 model.
Performance + Reliable
Very Reliable, never had to use the warranty. You will eventually get used to the stock 298hp. Add a turbo or Supercharger and these cars are the best bang for the buck reliable luxury sports car available for under 30k! Getting in and out of the back seat is not really intended for adults, but thats not why your reading this review is it? My Vortech supercharged G35 gets 18mpg city 23mpg highway, really good for 400+hp and its just about stock mpg! (Depends on how you drive)
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.
It's a sports car, 2dr 6MT
Very fast and affordable, still has held it's resale value if that's important to you. Almost got Acura TL / BMW 328i when I decided on the infiniti. Out-drives, out-corners, and out-performs the competition. Make no mistake, this is a sports car, don't expect it to be anything else. Excellent suspension (STIFF) and power that rivals a Porsche cayman which I just recently drove. Car turns into a different beast at 100+mph and drives as well/if not better than MB E or C class sedan. Clutch is touchy and difficult at first with the electric throttle, but anyone who likes to glide through the gears will love it eventually. Good car, if it fits your mission.
Terrific styling and performance
My G35 is the perfect combination of looks and performance. It is fast, handles very well and looks great. It does require premium fuel, but the gas mileage is decent. The interior is very well done with quality materials.

Best bang for my buck
I really enjoy this vehicle. I've owned it for just a week now and have not gotten tired of driving it yet. This car is strong, reliable and comfortable. I look forward to seeing how it will evolve over the years. Great powertrain used in many vehicles that provides options for those of you who like to customize.
3 months later...
I wrote a review for this car after I first purchased it in December 2005. The car continues to perform well but I find myself wanting for more power! I feel that for the money this car is still excellent, however, it should be quicker and faster. There are a lot of cars coming out now that are almost as quick, if not quicker than the G35 coupe for a lot less money and with 4-cylinder engines! Namely the new VW GTI, Dodge Caliber SRT4, Audi A3 S-line, etc. Even Honda Accord coupes with the 6 sp are faster to 60...with 40 less hp and 30 less torque? Doesn't seem right...
