I'm happily in the honeymoon stage with my Journey edition. I came from an Acura TSX, and find that the G35 has less trunk and interior space. The gas mileage is bad, but I knew that up front; I'm also concerned about the summer tires and their longevity. Otherwise, I can't extol enough the rocketship engine and handling of this vehicle! The ride is amazingly smooth on the highway, but nice and firm at slower speeds and on twisty roads. Fit and finish is outstanding, and get lots of compliments on the look. I searched far and wide for wood trim (surprisingly hard to find!), and think it makes the cabin seem much more open and inviting. I look forward to driving to work every single day.
G35x fun!

I on my second G35X. When my lease was expiring on my 2006 G35x, I started experiencing seperation anxiety. I looked in the marketplace, but could not find any other alternative that made me feel as good. There is no better feeling than walking towards my car, knowing how much fun I'm about to experience when the seats adjust to my preset position and I hit the ignition button. Handling on the X is as good as any sports car I've ever driven in. It's scary-fast, particularly when clearer with Bose technology
Luxurious, well-built and sporty

I am very happy with this car. Solid ride, quiet, nice interior. Visually distinct lines on the car. Very responsive steering. Transmission shifts are smooth and close together. Coming off a 2003 Audi A6, the build and ride quality of the G35X seems much better. Averaging 20 mpg in mixed driving.

I test drove a lot of cars when i was shopping and this was by far the best car for the price. The Lexus or BMW didn't even come close to this car. I recommend the premium and navigation package. I got the sport package because I liked the look better of the vehicle, but I don't like the sport seats they're a little stiff and tight for me and I'm an average size guy. Over all this is a great vehicle. The handling and speed is what makes this car fun to drive. Make sure you test drive this vehicle before you decide on a new car.
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.
Best Bang for the Buck!

I am very particular about certain things and my car is one of them. I traded in an 06 Honda Accord V6 for this 08 G35 Sedan Sport. I did a lot of research and test driving (Lexus IS 350, BMW 335i), but I was always partial to the Infiniti G35. I love the exhaust note!! This was a no brainer. The Lexus and Bimmer were $7k and $10k more respectively with the same options. I got mine fully loaded. The car has wicked acceleration! The quality of the materials inside the cabin are better than expected. The paddle shifters work great in manual shift mode. I recommend going for a test drive, but be warned... you will be hooked :-)

Absolutely love this car! I have the Blue slate with grey interior and 18's. From the exterior styling and color, to the interior gauges and design, to the 306 hp engine...this car has it all!! I've never felt so exhilarated behind the wheel before.

If you're in the market for great sport luxury sedan then this is the car for you. Great performance, looks, and comfort. It's a head turner, and there are not many on the road.
Great G35x

Hadn't planned on buying the G35 - always lusted after it, though. I bought an 06 325i. Frustrated, dumped it in 08, too many trips to the shop! Looked at the Maxima (never a fan, but liked the new look in 09) LOVED it, but couldn't pay $37K--more than the G. Drove the G, power kicks the 325. Who needs this sort of power? The brakes, lovely, the growl, exhilarating and no tranny lag when punched. Smooth, sure footed (though not as much on mountain roads as the BMW) and quiet. The drive train hump encroaches into the foot-well so front passenger's left leg/foot tilts at an odd angle. Front doors close solidly, rear doors sound tinny.
