Infinity G35???
Hey I love mine, great car pretty quick and looks great. Great luxury features as well. I would look into the new cts as well. they are pretty nice, I got mine aug. 07 and the only car that would have had me thinking twice is the 08 cts. too bad it was not out yet, not sure what car would be in the drive way then.

What yall think about this one http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...4000&cardist=5
I love mine. Obviously miss the old LS1 powerplant lol, but its no slouch for a nice daily driver. Aside from lacking some *****, the car is awesome. I think it looks hot, it handles great, and really isn't quite as slow as people make them out to be.
Mine is a 2005 6-spd with the newer Revup motor (298hp/260tq). I took it to Cecil County and ran 14.0 @ 102.3mph bone stock. Most of the people that own them suck *** at driving though, and typically run mid 14's at like 96-99mph lol. I was a little disappointed with my driving as I know the car has a 13.8 or at least a 13.9 in it, but the guys on the G35 forums make it sound like I'm the god of drag racing lol.
I'll tell you a few things about people in the G35 community:
1) They can't drive.
2) They don't touch their own cars or seem to know enough to work on ANYTHING themselves.
3) The forums SUCK. All info is to be taken with a grain of salt. You need to read through them to appreciate it. I ripped into some pansies over there haha. They actually have a section called "finer living" with threads titles such as:
"Designer keychains"

Nice car. I love mine but yea I wish their forums were more like ls1tech with interesting topics and actual legitimate information. They complain about the gayest things and do not seem to know anything about their own cars.

My wife and I raced a G35 last night in our '08 Caddy CTS (304 hp V6) and hurt his feelings three times in a row. He tried to do a ricer fly-by once, and he couldn't get past my door, then the Caddy started creeping ahead. Then we both hit it from a 40 mph roll and the Caddy put 2 lengths on him. Then we ran from a dead stop at a redlight and the Caddy put 2 lengths on him. This was a 2-door older body style G35.

How are they on gas, and how are autos power wise? Can you look at 350Z forums rather than G35 forums for advise? Only reason I ask is cause my cousin is looking to trade in his 02 GMC for a 04 auto G35.
The 350Z forums aren't quite as lame with their topics and whining, but the knowledge base is about the same, ie lame, unfortunately.
As my 98Z28 transmission keeps slipping, I've been thinking of getting another car. At first i wanted a Lexus Es330 but I think they look like just any other car. So Im thinking og getting a used Infinity G35, Im just surprised that they dont get reall get any better mpg than my 98Z28 when new. Either way it should get better than my 98 Z28 untuned with a tranny slipping. Want to know what yall think about this car, or are there better options?
What happen with the tune yall couldnt work it out?
