Overview & Reviews
The G35 is Infiniti's new entry-level luxury sport sedan. Aimed at buyers who would otherwise choose an Audi A4, BMW 3 Series or Lexus IS 300, the G35 offers impressive performance and comfort for a price that's less than most of the competition's.
- Powerful V6, balanced and capable handling, roomy cabin, reasonable price.
- No manual transmission available yet for the sedan, average interior material quality.

Nice looking, thats about it. - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Yemi - June 14 - 8:00 pmI like the way the car looks, but thats about it though. In the first year I have owned this vehicle, I had the driver window repaired, the heated seat go out, the $300 third brake light go out, the clear coat on the wing peel, the rear leather in the rear panel fall off, the $400 front brakes replaced and I average about 20 mpg on the highway and I dont have a lead foot. The gas mileage is about the same as a full-size pickup. We own two other Infinitis and no problems like this one. Good thing the car has a good resale value. I am buying a truck. The gas mileage is about the same and doesnt require premium fuel.

Dont buy! - 2003 Infiniti G35
By 2003 Infiniti G35 Lu - February 9 - 2:06 amAfter owning this vehicle, (2nd owner) for 3 years I have replaced the whole braking system 3 times, the stereo console quit which had to be replaced at $1000 and then I now have to replace the whole engine at 140,000 km. For a luxury car this is the absolute crap. I will never buy Nissan/Infinity again. Inifinti customer service is a waste of time. Dont Buy!

Good engine - but issues are usually expensive - 2003 Infiniti G35
By mclovin7980 - January 21 - 7:06 am11 yrs and 135,000 kms basic city use. Durable, however these are the issues that are costly. 1. Brakes - they wear out quicker than most cars and are expensive. 2. Radio/AC malfunction in most models is a costly dealer repair. 3. Some oil leak issues are common 4. Self repairs are not easy for this model, replacing the battery and headlights etc. Otherwise this model is satisfactory for a durable engine and I would rate it a 7/10 for satisfaction.

Beware of Brakes - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Kris73 - February 20 - 10:00 amReplaced brakes at 19,000 miles, read town hall discussions (on this website) before buying this vehicle. You will definitely change your mind.

Good but overrated - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Mark Callahan - October 25 - 2:00 amGreat Looking Car. Sub-par interior: No armrest, no memory seats, poorly located cupholders, and a barely functional backseat(<= 59"). Pros: dash arrangement, steering wheel controls, and the Seats. "specs" vs "experience": Sedan felt more powerful (with 20 less HP, and AT). The coupe feels heavy. Some may describe the acceleration as "smooth" or "refined", but I would describe it as tame, and truly did not feel like 280HP. While the sedan felt energetic, the coupe felt bloated. The 6-SP shifter is nice, however the clutch was a bit heavy for my taste. Pro: the coupe does handle extremely well, and sticks to the road like glue.

Its not a Honda... - 2003 Infiniti G35
By clintguy - November 24 - 2:00 amThe engine is bulletproof, but the rest of the car... well, it should be riddled with bullets. Everything is rattly and creaky after a year. Before this car, I had 4 Hondas/Acuras and none of them were like this. Moreover, I have had a blown out speaker since the first month I had it, and no Infiniti dealership will replace a door speaker! Agh!

MY LOANER WAS BUILT BETTER - 2003 Infiniti G35
By OTIS GLAMORE - August 28 - 11:16 pmTHE REASON IM ON THIS SITE IS TO SEE IF I CAN SELL IT AND BREAK EVEN... RECALLS, OMINOUS SQUEEKING IN A WHEEL THAT SERVICE WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE, A DASH BOARD THAT IS FALLING OUT OF THE FRAME, PLASTIC ON PLASTIC CREAKING, INSTRUMENT PANEL "GLASS CRACKING, TRIM FALLING OFF COMPLETELY, ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND TRULY OPEC-PLEASING GAS EFFICIENCY...BUT ITS BEAUTIFUL TO LOOK AT!

Not Best in Class - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Driver427 - July 6 - 10:00 amI test drove all the cars in this class extensively, and the G35 is not the leader in my opinion. Yes its fast, but the handling isnt the greatest and it was not very fun to drive. The BMW 330 is the best overall car.

I Expected More - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Patrick Lucas - June 7 - 10:00 amGreat looking car. Average interior materials. Poor initial quality. 7 repeat visits to repair a dangerous pull to the right. (Was told it was in spec) AC faulty but factory had a repair for it. Gas tank will not fill up. Factory does not have a repair for it.

Dont buy a used G35 - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Calvin - December 12 - 8:56 amI like the G35 overall but this car is not your usual reliable Japanese sedan. It has weird reliability issues: eg. the suspension lower arm link broken @ 35000miles, the brake squeak @ 38000miles, the dashboard light went out @ 44000miles...all those little things that drive you nuts because you would expect better from Infiniti. I wish I wouldve gotten an Acura instead (owned 3 of them in the past and had no problem whatsoever at least till 100,000 miles!).
