Used 2008 INFINITI G35 Consumer Reviews

Best Sports Sedan under $35K

Unmatched performance for the price. Acceleration, handling, braking are all at the top of the class. Fuel economy is decent considering the performance (I get 20 mpg, with 75% city driving). Packed with luxury features like touch screen nav, back up camera, iPod interface, bi-Xenon headlights, Bluetooth, voice recognition, etc. Interior is roomy with great seat comfort (driver seat has 16-way adjustment on Sport model). Can't go wrong with a G.

Luxury hot rod

I just traded a 2006 accord ex v-6 for the G 35x. What a difference in ride, quality, and performance. The g is really fun to drive. The swell acceleration is awesome, smooth.. smooth... smooth.

Wow! Performance and Luxury all in one

This car really is an "underdog" when people first compare it to BMW, Lexus and other well known cars. But this car is fantastic! The Premium and Navigation Packages are a must when getting this car. The performace of this car is awesome. It's very fast and smooth at accelerating. I can get in and out of traffic when I need to. My favorite part of this car is the interior. It's very Modern but also has a luxury feel to it as well. The controls are very well laid out and look fantastic. I get so many looks in this car. I think it's much more sporty looking than the Lexus and also the BMW. All I can sy is make sure you test drive one when comparing to BMW? Lexus and you will see what I mean.

Just go and drive one with all the toys

I have been driving high performance Benz and BMW for years, but had the itch for more room and luxury without giving up performance. I am past the days of status statements with automobiles and started my search from behind the wheel test driving cars with a budget of 55K. In the end the G35S was the car, it delivers more luxury and features than the BMW 5s and better performance and features than the Benz Es, all for just under 40K with all options.

2008 G35x is the car to beat

Of all the many cars I owned, this is the most fun and best thought-through car. Handling, power, road feel, road-noise level are all first class. The navigation and the rest of the electronics are wonderfully integrated and easy to learn and use. The screen is very bright and is useable even in sunny days. The 3 ways to control most functions (voice, knobs and touch- screen) make it fun abd easy to use under all conditions. The trunk access is too narrow, with a high barrier so that placing groceries and baggage is a hassle. Driver seat can not be pushed back enough for my frame (5'11").

Over Rated

Held off on commenting until I hit the 5000 mile marker. First interior is well done and attractive. However, I find the engine with the automatic is poorly done. The sport shift is comical with down shifts that don't make sense especially at lower speeds. Handling is ok, but not great, the review in edmunds is bang on - artificial. Brakes are spongy and translate road feel through the wheel which I find disconcerting. Fuel economy is brutal. I drive mostly highway and I haven't broken 18 MPG even with heavy use of cruise control. There is a reason why everything is compared to the BMW... it is far superior. Finish is suspect. Already have rubber coming off my driver side door.

Overall beats a BMW!

Much better car than a BMW. Responds well, awesome features and is one fun ride. I have a 2008 G35x with nav and premium package and love her. I am 6'2 and have plenty of leg room. The rear seat on the second hand is small.

Best Car Lease Ever

I love this car. Everything works like it should, it has all the options I could want (mine is loaded - missing only the silly technology package), it is as fast as anything, it drives better than the BMW 5 series I had before.

Can't wait to drive it again and again!

Have ~6K miles and absolutely love the car! Also, very nice dealership experience from test drive to sale to service. Very unlike some of the others that I have visited. It has all the power that I could use while still remainign civilized. Great multi-link suspension - it handles like a razor and yet still comfy on bumpy roads. I get 21 MPG in fast suburb driving. Curiosly, driving style has no impact on MPG - same whether you crawl or spin wheels.

The proof is in the pudding

The car is sexy for the summer months.... pretty decent for the winter months...seat warmers are great. Takes off like lightning at the light. Dashboard was a bit confusing at first. Don't like the auxiliary system. But overall decent car

I'd rather be driving a pickup

great shape,fun to drive,reliable and safe. They made these cars a little sporty and a little classy.

To Infiniti and Beyond

G.O.A.T. Goat stands for greatest of all time. The Infiniti g35x is the greatest car of all time. Yes, of course, there are faster or prettier cars than the Infiniti g35x but there is no other car that you can fall in love with like this Nissan import.

I totally love this car

Reliable, fun to drive, fast and comfortable, I have 4 years with this car and I haven't fix anything, this car runs and drives excellent and if you buy one you would beat turbo cars at the red light.

Such an amazing car

Love the car so sporty feel when you drive the car feels like an exotic sport car

It is a great mid-tier luxury performance vehicle

Good value for the money

Great vehicle

Ive had this car for three months and overall Im quite pleased. The only thing I'm not happy about is I feel this car has too many creeks, squeaks and buzzes for a car in its price class. Otherwise interior fit and finish is fine. Also the paint gives the appearance of orange peel at certain angles...this applies to all Nissan products. The fit is fine though. Otherwise this vehicle delivers the goods. The factory sound system has a nice sound but to me, its pretty soft on the volume.

Great First Car

I am 16 years old and I received this as my first car. I got the black on black with navigation and all those nice amenities. This is for sure an amazing car. I only have around 2,500 miles on it. It's a quick and cool car. I have one of the nicest cars and campus and its definitely a head turner for other teenagers. In the 4 months I have had it, it has been good to me, besides a few unfortunate scratches. Not a single dent when I got hit in the parking lot. Quality.

2008 G35 Sedan 6MT Great Ride!!

Before everything else, test drive this car right away. It feels superior to drive and handles excellent. Gas mileage is surprisingly efficient. Driving with the 6 speed manual transmission is a little tricky as the car feels extra responsive to your every move so it can take a little getting used to even though I've driven a manual for years.
