Forget the European Cars
I have owned the BMWs and they do not handle as well, nor have the reliability record, of the Infiniti. The G35 delivers an unbelievable amount of horsepower for the money. The cornering on the car is fantastic with outstanding breaking and acceleration responsiveness. I am truly excited to drive again!!!
2007 Infiniti G35
In 2004, I leased a G35. I had 11 nagging reasons NOT to like this car, in spite of Motor Trend and everyone else. These were poor sound, outside mirrors, gas mileage, seats, etc. In 2007, for financial reasons, I leased a new one. There is NO comparison. The 2007 G35 is greatly improved over the previous ones and now is the car it was billed to be in 2003 and 2004.

Small rocket!
Bought my '07 G35 w/17,000 miles in June 2010 and after MONTHS of researching, reading and test-driving other vehicles. Simply put: I'm putting miles on the car JUST BECAUSE I CAN'T STOP DRIVING IT! I'll find any excuse to jump on and drive it. Superior handling, A MONSTER torque, quality and clean interior, nice leather, excellent dashboard displays, classy style, great exterior, upscale front face, fun, fun, fun to drive! The engine needs a soft right foot or you'll spin the rear wheels. AC is gelid cold, xenon headlights gives you clean vision, power seat and driving wheel gives you endless positions, max support from driver seat. Great, great car.
Past 300ZX Owner, All Grown Up Now.
In my 20s and single, drove a 1994 300ZX manual, decked out leather. Now that it's been 10+ years and I am 32, my tastes and styles have hopefully improved. My thirst for flat out, eye watering performance has only grown. My wife's toyota solara V6 was growing long in the tooth. As we looked for a new car, nothing made her really get excited, no matter the manufacturer or price range. I had shown her the Infiniti website and we were off to go find one. Once she saw the car and went for a spin. She loved it, I loved it. The car has intense performance and a refined style that seperates it from the cookie cutter Lexus and BMW set. If there is any question of safety and traction, go AWD.
One Year Review
I have been very pleased with the reliability and performance of the car. I have had zero problems with the vehicle and have not had to return to the dealer for any issues (have performed all the maintenance myself). Acceleration and braking are all excellent. The sport suspension and tires provide excellent handling without compromising comfort too much. Interior is very quiet at speed, The exhaust note is good without being too loud. Stereo has good clarity and volume although not tremendous base. I have never averaged under 20 mpg in everyday driving and have gotten 27 mpg on all interstate driving. The trunk is smallish and the interior does not have a lot of storage. Tires wear quickly.
Luxury 4 Fast
Very fun to drive and a great car to look at. Interior is very nice and quality is great. Mileage is ok but tank is small.
Great car
Great car all around, fun to drive, the power is there when you need it, the features are great and easy to use, I like it way better then my old BMW 3 series
31K & Counting
This is one fun car to drive! Purchased 3/07 and we're now up to 31K miles. Sport tires lasted til 27.5K. Could have been better but they are sticky suckers. I buy cars looking at engine performance 1st and value for the buck 2nd. I don't think I could have done better. This engine has the power to make me smile ear to ear everyday. I love blowing by other cars and looking in the mirror. Only guy that had the engine to stay with me was in an Audi S4. Handling is great. Interior is excellent. Nav useful. Sound system makes my guts thump. The kids and the wife like it too but have to be good when they're in the car.
Wow!!
This vehicle is easy to drive. Quiet interior, very responsive and extremely comfortable for a smaller vehicle. We have had the vehicle for 2 weeks now. Very light gas pedal. What your speed!
2007 G-35 Sport w/Prem and Nav
Bought a G-35S over a BMW 335i. The price difference was just too much to swallow. No regrets after two weeks. Lots of power, nice AT (not as nice as the 335 but still good). Lot's of tech in the cabin for gadget people. The Infiniti Nav is awesome. Car handles and drives as good as any 3 series (yes, I mean that).
Best Sport Sedan Value
Intensively researched and compared the Infiniti G35 Sport to Acura TL-S, BMW 3 series, Audi A4, and Cadillac CTS. On paper the G was the best value. Test drives and now ownership confirm my research. The 6MT Sport Sedan provides ready power, a stable, sure and agile ride combined with a gently sloping, sexy upscale interior, large fuel capacity and best trunk size in its class. Six speed manual transmission has a longish clutch that takes a bit of an adjustment - about two days in my case. The short throw shifter is crisp and decisive. Exterior design is sleek and strong; people stop and stare.
2007 Infiniti G35 x
I bought this car about 18 months ago after owning a G35 2003 coupe. This car is more practical, comfortable, and downright faster than the last car. Infiniti really got this one right! The perfect blend of sport and luxury. I can drive the family on a road trip in comfort, do the daily commute to work, and tear up the road when I get the urge.
Over a year and LOVE my G35S
I have had my G35S for over a year now and I can honestly say that I still love this car. Great brakes, great performance, great style, great radio, just an all around great car!!! My only complaint is the gas mileage, it is not good at all. I know this car is a performance car, but I never expected 16 mpg or less for highway/local road travel.
Best of all worlds
I dropped my wife off at a wedding, after driving her & 2 friends to the church. There was 4-5 inches of snow already. Cars slipping all over. Not enough time to plow the roads yet. The G35x was AWESOME. Even with wider tires, the g35x's awd and the stability control literally disconnected me from the snowy road. I have a 2000 subaru, and the AWD on that is great. But this car would have blown it away. The G35x is an incredibly competent vehicle. Hands down. It will cruise in great luxury, and will blast ahead of traffic when needed. For sure there are cars that will beat every individual aspect of this car, but as a package, it is impressive as all get out!
Great value, but...
This car is a blast. It handles superbly, revs quickly all the way up to 7500, and offers superior comfort. For the money it can't be beat. However, it's a little rough around the edges. The throttle hangs when you release it and then the RPM's drop suddenly, limiting responsiveness. Engine vibrates noticeably at higher RPM. Sunroof seems to create some wind noise at >70 MPH.
Almost Perfect
Turned in my '03 G35 for new Journey last week. Completely different car. This car feels bigger and heavier. It's quicker off the line but does not feel quite as sporty. Maybe because my last car had the sport package. I enjoyed the exhaust note on the '03 better. Got my '07 with all the options for under 37k. Test drove the Acura TL Type S, not bad but nowhere near the luxury or refinement of the G. The 330i was just too expensive with all the options. So far I'm really enjoying this car. If I could just learn how to use all the toys!!
Great Car
Drove Saabs for 20+ years and the G35 is significantly better in all respects. Haven't had it back to dealer for anything but scheduled maintenance in 1-1/2 years - 30,000 miles. Can easily drive 750+ miles per day without getting tired. Best quality new car I've owned in 45+ years of new car ownership.
Best of both Worlds!
Push it and it drives like a superb handling muscle car. Cruise and it is smooth luxury!. Tried Lexus, BMW and Mercedes. If you get this car fully loaded with the Tech pkg and it's the perfect blend of them all. I am beyond happy with this car. Gas mileage is a drawback but it has a long list of positive trade offs. Manual Clutch takes some getting used to but is extreme fun once you master it.
Easy decision
I did my due diligence before buying my G. I have had a couple of 5 series 5 speeds and just felt that BMW was living of their name more than advancing their car. Test drove the TL 6 speed and did not like the handling or the stereo. Lexus has nothing to offer in the 6 speed (is250?). I test drove the G35 and it was an easy decision. This car has it all - luxury, power, handling, looks, reliability, power, GREAT sound from the premium package and did I say power. I have an I30 5 speed going on 150K miles that I have only put brakes on once. These cars are really made well. This is a no brainer.
What's there not to love??
I started looking around and I narrowed my choices down to the Acura TL S-Type, Lexus IS 350, BMW 330i and the G35. I am an avid lover of the BMW, the Acura would have been my second choice, however the G35 was what my heart told me to follow and I have not looked back since. There is nothing bad I could find to say about the G35. I ended up getting a black G with tan interior. The 9.5 gig hard drive to download music to the car just blew me away. I have owned about 10 cars in my life and driven several others and nothing in or near the G35's class can compare to the performance and handling of this vehicle. Infiniti has upped the ante - can any other automobile step up to the challenge?
Best bang for my buck!
After owning this car for 11 months, every time I get in it I'm reminded that this car is amazing. The handling is superb, the exterior of the lines gives it that sexy look, the interior is purely impressive. I have three complaints, the trunk is pretty small, I'm the only driver but when traveling one large suitcase and duffel bag and your packed. Gas mileage is definitely not impressive and I think it should have at least been an option to have integrated driving lights in the bottom grille. Other than those three I would buy this car all over again!
The perfect fun, power, luxury G35X sed
This is the perfect sedan, the G35X. What a fun, fast, great handling sedan. Must drive to appreciate how great this sedan is.
'07 G35 Sedan
The new G is fast, and handles great. The Sport model suspension is firm without being harsh, and the paddle shifters for the 5AT are excellent. Inside all of the amenities are within easy reach, and the layout (especially the gauges) is outstanding. Sport seats are comfortable, and hold you snugly through any maneuver :-) The trunk space is pretty limited, and the rear seats don't fold down :-(, so there's room for even large suitcases, but not wide items. Fuel economy is pretty dismal, but to be fair I drive it in manual shift mode all the time, and rarely shift up to 5th except on the highway. Great car, great price, I'm delighted.
An excellent car
Wonderful car to drive. The throttle is twitchy until you get used to it which takes about a week. It's sort of funny watching someone drive it who is not used to it. Everyone's head bounces off the headrests (which are well padded). I understand they modified the throttle response in the later models which is unfortunate. The car has performed flawlessly but be prepared to replace the brake pads every 15,000 miles and the rotors will need to be machined each time. $$$$
Right Foot says THANK YOU!!!
Being in the car industry, i've seen pretty much every make and model, and it's tough to be impressed by anything under $75,000. That is until i came across the 07 G35x. The interior is fantastic, matched by it's exterior appeal. The engine is smooth and powerful, and the Nissan 3.5 is backed by award winning quality. Tried and true, mechanically these cars are bullet proof. The AWD keeps you where you're going, and 0-60 in 5.2 is no joke. Amazing technology, Fantastic audio system, beautiful NAV screen... this car is a tremendous value, and a pleasure to drive.
Fun as heck, don't believe the MPG
I absolutely love driving this car, it's responsive, tight and quick. Many unique interior features, and what a smooth ride. Only problem so far is that I'm not getting close to the fuel economy suggested.
Thrilling
I just got my G35x about 2 weeks ago. Wow! I read the reviews so I felt confident with the purchase, thought I knew exactly what I was getting. I am happy to say that I received much more than I anticipated. The styling is classy, the quality is impeccable and the power this car delivers is "infinitely" beyond my expectation. The G has an impressive center of gravity that makes the car stick to the road in the corners. I love all the techno gadgets as well including the nav and hard drive for storing my music on board. The voice commands and the Bluetooth wireless for my cell is my favorite feature. The fob key entry system rocks. This car delivers a flawless experience, end to end.
GeeLoveULongTime!!!
Hung on to my Honda Accord V6 Coupe for as long as possible (wife, 2 small kids and an SUV). I was looking for a 4-dr sports sedan that offered sportiness, luxury, and room for 4. I set my sights on the G35x as well as the BMW3. Once I had a look at the new lines and interior of the 2007 G and took it for a test drive a clear winner was declared. The G35 offered nearly everything that the BMW 3s had with better reliability and for way less money - performance and value!! After 10 months, and 15,000 mi. I just can't say enough good things about this car - I'm too busy driving it.
Great Value
Very happy with the style and performance of the new G. Best value in its class. Handling is unbelievable as is the acceleration. A great buy when considering the competition!!
"Love it"
Friend of mine called who works at a dealership, the car belonged to his wife's cousin who returned it off of lease, wow was I blown away by the quality of this car. Yes it took me about a week of getting whiplash to adjust to the acceleration. Powerful car, handles well in all types of weather, I have the AWD X version and it went thru the snow better than my 4WD did. Sound system is incredible. Superb breaking and cornering. When U want speed it rocks, when you're cruising it's very smooth.
Amazing vehicle
This is my first experience in the entry level luxury market, and as they say, you get what you pay for. It is worth every penny. This car turns heads everywhere I go. It offers more than BMW, without the inflated Lexus price tag. Check one of these cars out before you buy anything else.
Super
This car is a blast to drive and great as a daily commuter as well. Have logged 27K miles and not a single problem thus far. The reliability has been a huge factor. Plenty of room to schlep one or two of the kids around town when needed. Highly recommend this vehicle.
Not as fun as expected
I bought this car because it was fast, agile and sleek. The exterior has aggressive styling that recieves many compliments, the interior is not very functional and hard to find a place to get comfortable. This car has so much plastic in it I am afraid it may melt if I leave it out too long. Even though I know the car is well built, I dont feel a sense of quality to it. The car has a rather potent engine but it does not grip the road well enough for having AWD.
Great car for the money
Great value, very reliable, and fun to drive. My only complaint is the low gas mileage.
Very Nice
Love it. Comfortable and very fun to drive. The 306 HP really makes this car move. Nav package is a must.
Even Better Now
Purchased the new G35 today. So far I am very impressed. Smooth, responsive engine. Very quick. Interior fit and finish much improved over previous years.
Totally Awsome
This is a G35 S 6MT with the premium package. The performance is awesome. I've driven Volvo S60R, BMW 330i, Audi A4(3.0 and 2.0 T) and this is the most impressive engine. Best selling point was when salesmen let me test drive alone and left traction control off by accident. Car almost went sideways on dry pavement shifting to second with an automatic. Was concerned about its traction control until I found out traction control was off. I later drove a manual with it on. I can say this is the fastest car I've ever driven and blows BMW and Audi away unless you pay the extra 30-40K for Audi S-4, RS-4, or BMW M3. Premium is worth it for the awesome bose studio on wheels and the bluetooth
Check your paint/Poor Client Experience
The good: Drives awesome and the stereo rocks. Very comfortable seats and well put together. The bad: 6 days after taking delivery discovered a paint flaw in three doors (looks like someone ran their fingers under the clear coat and left a "wax residue" the size of a hand). Manufacturer acknowledges it was a factory defect but is only willing to re-paint all doors, plus part of the front and rear quarter will need to be repainted. BBB says I have no case under Lemon Laws. The car is silver which is a difficult color to match. The manufacturer may be following the law by only offering to re-paint but is it really fair to force a client to accept a repainted new car? In my opinion no.
G35 Sedan Loaded
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.
Super Sedan
Absolutely wonderful. I owned a 2004 FX35 and a 2006 G35 Coupe. Loved the FX , the Coupe was too small(no room). The Sport Sedan has it all. Ride, handling and performance.
The Perfect Japanese BMW
I got my brand new G35 a few months ago and I love my new car. This car is so fast and stable that you will go 100 mph without knowing it. I ordered it in black on black straight from Japan, so I had to wait a month, but it was all worth it.
Almost Perfect
This car has it all - incredibly responsive, sexy interior, sexy exterior. In fact, I actually feel sexier driving this car. I looked at Lexus, BMW, Saab and Acura and hands down decided this was the car for me. Mostly because of the tech packages and general sexiness of the car itself.
One of the best Japanese imports
I've been driving this car for approx 3 months now and I still catch myself smiling each time I enter the car. I was actually set on buying the 335i, but decided to test drive the '07 6mt before making a final decision. Unlike the very industrial look of the Bimmer's interior, the G had that sense of warmness that I didn't really feel in the other cars I tested (IS 350, TL type S, A4, S4). Besides the IS 350 and 335i, the G simply trumps its competition when it comes to delivering raw power. I didn't think I could love the car anymore. That is until I started modding the car. So far... exhaust, upgraded springs/shocks, 20" wheels... and much more to come.
Too early but... WOW!!
Searching for a car for over a month. Coming out of an 05 BMW 3. Considered Lexus IS, BMW 3, almost got a Volvo S60. Had a last minute change of heart and drove the G35, fell in love immediately. Best bang for your buck bar none. Standard stuff much more than you need and pay for elsewhere. Beautiful in and out. AWD nice, finish, smooth ride, comfortable.
Great car
Traded in a Saab 9-5. Test drove Audi A4 and Acura TL as well as Saab 9-5 but kept coming back to the G-35. Technology / electronics are amazing - back up camera, navigation system, etc. Car rides well and is FUN to drive with outstanding handling and power. Great styling. Mileage better than expected - getting 21 to 22 mpg on highway with cruise control.
Fun gas guzzler
I had this car for 3 weeks now and like the cars performance overall. I wish it had more torque like the lexus. The lexus is350 had a stronger motor and was more comfortable inside. The bmw was just an overall nicer car. I guess you get what ya pay for. The g35 also has hard seats and loves to burn fuel. I get about 15-16 mpg around town. The g35 doesn't handle as well as a bmw in high winds or at high speeds. It gets loose in the turns at high speeds. Sure hope gas prices don't climb again.
Worth Every Penny!
The new G35 is solid ride and very well built. I'm replacing a 2005 Acura TL which was a rattling piece of junk. There is a world of difference and not for much more money. The style exterior and interior is great much better than the previous G35. It's very, very fast and fun to drive. If you want one of these cars, get at least the premium and tech packages and the wood package is neat also. The seats are stiff and fairly average size - not made for a large person! It's simply a great value for the money and hopefully be great quality and a great alternative to Acura who I feel is slipping in quality.
Jaw Droping... WoW... Amazing!!
This car is absolutely fantastic. it's fit and Finish are stellar, the 4 wheel active steer is amazing and if your ordering a car, don't skip this option! The handling is stellar, the power of this car is actually dangerous for most people.. I wish it had a way to cut the power in 1/2 for valets and the wife :) If you're looking for the king of performance it's either the G35S or the BMW 335i for ($11K more) but I don't see $11K in extra value out of the 335i. The TL is not in the same performance league and the IS350 falls quite short on handling and driver feedback.
G35 Stands For Sport
This is my second G35 Sedan Auto. I just sold my '03 recently and purchased this after comparing it to the BMW 335 and the Lexus IS 350. The G35 has all the electronic gadgets, awesome stereo, and is great fun to drive at a better bang for buck than any other car in its class. And it's reliable. Never one problem with my '03. Infiniti really improved every aspect of this car from the original.
Much Improved
Traded my '03 G35 for the redesigned '07. What an improvement!! While the car was great to begin with Infiniti tweaked the exterior a bit while really addressing some shortcomings with the interior. I'm finding myself looking for excuses to drive.
