A Pleasure to Drive

This car is for people who love to drive. Acceleration is fantastic. Handling and braking are smooth. Very tight turning radius for a car this size. Road noise is a little more prevalent than in competitor's models, but not bad overall. You can feel the transmission shifts a bit. This car has a lot of power for a 5-speed. Likely corrected with the 7-speed in the '09. For me, the MPG has been trending at 17 over the first two months of ownership. I'm a little on the aggressive side, but previous cars haven't penalized me as much as this one does.

Not so great as expected, but still...

I'm a little disappointed by my G35S. It's a great car with an excellent engine, nice interior, great exterior, all the gadgets and a posh sound system. But it has several HUGE flaws - horrible transmission and clutch! First of all it is VERY hard to launch it smoothly and quetly, too much throttle and it surges like a bull, too little and it shakes like its got an overdose. Let go throttle at 1st gear and instead of slow smooth engine braking you get uneven and abrupt deceleration, horrible feeling (and you look like a fool too). Second - very LOUD drivetrain noise. Third - under hard acceleration the car starts to shake violently, as the tires gain and loose the grip, very disappointing.

I got the 2008 G35 Journey with the tire and wheel package, premium package and navigation package. It is a great looking car inside and out. Acceleration and handling are impressive. The exhaust sounds great. Fuel economy could be better. The navigation is fairly easy to use and comes with all sorts of added technological goodies. A lot of bang for the buck.

Leased the 08 G35 Journey with Premium Package, liquid platinum is the perfect color for this vehicle. My decision was between the '09 Acura TL and the G35. There was no comparison between these two vehicles when evaluating features, and performance for the money. The G offered 306 hp, smart key, upgraded leather seats.

Worth a look - in a word, superb

This is an extremely sharp handling and undeniably quick sports car that just happens to have 4 doors and AWD. Though it may be a personal preference but pictures do not do justice to the lines and form of this car (like flowing water caught in an instant). Roomy inside (for this segment) and comfortable without excess. Premium and Navigation packages are a must. This is not a super-car but its highly capable and not overpriced. You can judge for yourself - definitely take a test drive.
