It's a great car!
Buying experience was excellent. Car is tight, quiet and fast. A little bigger than my previous 99 Maxima, and loaded with nice touches. Understated exterior design will surprise people. Looked at Volvo, Maxima, Saab, chose the best car at the best price.
Infiniti Best Buy
After researching Lexus ES300, GS300, Lincoln LS and Acura TL--as well as BMW 3-4 series---this car is the best buy for the price. Infiniti is priced 5-7K under the competition with a car that out performs the competiton. I hate spending 30+K on a car and getting a little engine--The I35 will leave everything in its class sitting still. Incidentally bargain hard and you will get this car in the 27-29K range--competitors cannot match the price! I love this car!

Best Of All Worlds
I took delivery of this car yesterday (with 24,000 miles) and drove it from Atlanta to New York City in 15 hours. After test driving nearly every vehicle on the market I found the I35 to fit all criteria: power, safety, reliability, comfort, look and value. While sitting in any car for 15 hours straight is painful, the I35 was a pleasure to drive. I got 29.3 mpg averaging 58 mph (traffic slowed me down). Phenominal numbers for any V6 engine. If you can find one of these, it's as good as any new car at half the price. I am now an Infiniti customer.
Much to be Improved Upon
Was a fantastic vehicle until it passed 60k miles. Even with continuous maintenance, it sucks gas, has serious suspension problems, eats through tires, burns oil, the transmission is going, and the muffler has rusted completely off. It now has 68,000 miles on the odometer and has eaten $5000+ in repair costs. It has also left me stranded 1000 miles from home when the TPS (throttle position sensor - once recalled) died. That out of town repair was $1000 alone.
Great Value!
I bought my I35 in December 2002 and now have 45000 miles on it. Only warranty work done was a new seat motor. Great engine, great near- luxury interior, great value. Sporty (stiff) suspension. Bose radio is terrible. It is all bass, very muddy sounding. No treble whatsoever. The worst car radio I've ever heard! You will have to replace the speakers if you like listening to music. Turning radius is embarrasing. Like driving a bus in a parking lot. Overall highly recommended.
