Used 2007 INFINITI G35 Sport 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6M) Consumer Reviews
Lots of room to improve
Infiniti falls short in so many areas. The controls are a foot away from the display for what you're changing (A/C, stereo), the A/C controls are non-intuitive. Bumper paint doesn't match. Dash lights don't match. Body and trim panels vary in fit. Front sport seats are too tight for an average (180 lb) adult. Bad clutch - in for recall today. Cheap floor mats are almost worn out! 14 bolts/plastic cover to replace oil filter and change oil. Front chrome grill easy to chip. Moon roof trim falls out. Redundant service disply in console and in dash. Cheap analog clock should be digital for quick read. Leather not as soft as previous year. Little storage in cabin. Stereo FM separation very poor.
Very good car, but it has its quirks
Overall, this is an excellent car, but you have to accept certain Saab-ish or Subaru-ish quirks that come with it. Can not complain about the shift linkage, handling, acceleration, or comfort. The quirks I mentioned include things like memory seats. Yes, the seat will move to the predetermined position, as will the steering wheel, but the side view mirrors will remain still. Also, here are RCA jacks for an MP3 player in the center arm rest compartment, but there is no integrated charger or mount for the iPod. The car also does not have daytime running lights. Overall, these are small gripes and the money saved over a MB, Audi, or BMW is well worth the minor inconveniences.

Great Purchase
Since I've only owned this vehicle 10 months and I have only drove it about 5400 miles, it's tough to show you my experience. I enjoy the raw power of this vehicle with it's 6-speed manual transmission! Love it!! The sound system is great, but would like to have had support for DVD-hudio. You can't use protected media in the player, so I was bummed about the "cheap route" with the player that they used.
Great car.
This is an excellent car. The brakes are good and matches the power that the car produces. It would be even better if the car could lose about 200lbs.
Fast and furiously fun to drive!
I've had this '07 G35S 6mt for just over a week and it's a just as much a thrill looking at it parked as it is to drive. I have all the available options (tech, premium, navigation packages, 4WAS, factory spoiler, splash guards, cargo net). Shifting out of 1st is getting easier and the low-end gear power is awesome - I wouldn't consider the 5 speed automatic for this beast even with the paddle shifters. My wife drives an automatic but enjoys this manual. It's very quiet on the interstate and the suspension is tight but not harsh - just what you need for a true sedan sports car. The quality is great from fit to finish - just hard to keep it under 4000 RPMs during break-in.
