G35 is best lookin coupe offered in my opinion. and my buddy has a 350z w/ an ati procharger (8psi) + 75shot zex kit on it. so I would imagine the procharger would fit right up on the G. that black g up there is just dead sexy. It's got a phatom look to it just scary how incredible that car looks.

Traded my G35 for an Evo w/sun&sound and leather. The automatic sedan has a terrible driver's seat. Idiotic seat controls and way too much - non-functional -padding. I swear the seat isn't level but leans inward and pushes you up against the side bolster. I was in daily pain until I got my lovely Evo!
Coupe is better - seat somewhat more comfortable, especially with a stick.
The leather inside the Infiniti is low quality - not even close to Lexus - more like Nissan.
Sedan has nice tires.
The brakes wear out quickly and Infiniti gives you free brakes up to 35000 miles. I got mine to last 20k but I drive with engine braking. Some gal chewed up hers in 7000.
Engine is overstressed and noisy. Needs 3000 + rpm to rev - stick is a must. Nissan needs to come out with a new 6 instead of "upgrading" this old engine. Think in-line 6 like BMW.
Coupe is very nice looking. Now if we could get a coupe Evo......

I am so glad I saw this thread, because I wanted a G35 so bad, that infact that was all that I wanted to buy in trade of my silvia, but i thought they were just a bit much on the price (not that it is not worth it, I just could not afford it),,,,then one day while pondering what car i could afford my roomate (who owns a WRX) talked me into testing a EVO to see/////next thing you know I amwalking out a PROUD owner of an EVO.....I had done no research on the car either, just feel in love with the speed, which was the one thing I knew the G35 did not have.....plus the 4 doors helped sell it too ;D . I still look at the G35 with a glowing stare and think it is an awsome looking and wonder did i make the right choice.......then i hear the BOV go off, and I go HELL yea i made the right choice.

And Infiniti will do the service for free on the brakes. The coupe is going to get 280hp this year also,

they don't weigh 4360lb they are a little over 3500. The six speed sedans have an LSD rear from 2004 on. I had a 2003 G35 sedan great car.

S/C or TT will no doubt void the warranty. I attended a Stillen show and watched some dyno, the NA cars were putting down between 240-260 HP, there mods were intake,cat-back. The Stillen supercharged cars stage 2(smaller pulley,remap,intercooler,cat back) were putting down 330-335 HP good, but @ a very high cost (8K). I will say that the Injen CAI in combination with the Random Tech HF Cats, and Borla Cat-Back will wake up the car big time over stock.
