Overview & Reviews

The sedan receives exterior styling revisions with a new hood, grille, bumpers, side sills, taillights and wheels. Sedans now make as much power as the coupes -- 280 hp (up from 260) and 270 lb-ft of torque (also up from 260) on models with an automatic transmission. Coupes and sedans equipped with a manual transmission get even more power (298 hp) but sacrifice 10 lb-ft of torque. Sedans with the sport suspension package also pick up 18-inch wheels and drilled aluminum pedals. All G35s get a redesigned instrument panel and console area with aluminum or wood trim, and the manual transmission has been improved to provide a lower shifting effort. A Sport version of the coupe debuts this year and includes an even firmer suspension, a limited-slip differential, 19-inch forged alloy wheels and drilled aluminum pedals. Oddly, though, Brembo brakes are no longer available on manual-shift coupes.

• Powerful V6, balanced and capable handling, roomy cabin, reasonable price.

• Average interior materials quality, touchy brakes.

  G35x Best of all worlds!! - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Larry - August 24 - 8:23 am

  First, I am 64" so I dont have the pick of all great sports cars. However, I am very comfortable in the G35x (its larger than the 325ix) -- it handles great and its incredibly fast. Living in Rockland County, NY where it snows alot, all wheel drive gives me the best of both worlds, excellent rear wheel drive handling and AWD when you need it.

  G35 is a rocket - 2005 Infiniti G35

  I have never owned a sport sedan before that was really a sport sedan until now, even with the automatic transmission it blows BMW 300s away in performace and price.

  Best deal going right now - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By John - August 2 - 5:16 am

  After extensive research (including some on edmunds.com) I bought an 05 Garnet Fire G35 with the Premium package (keyless start, reclining rear seats, etc). I really like this car. Gets 20-24 MPG consistently (60/40 HWY/TWN). Very smooth riding with the exception of going over bumps on a turn (on ramp, etc) the cars seems to jiggle slightly. I may be somewhat sensitive though since I traded in an 04 GTO that was very stable on the road. Smooth V6 that accelerates hard above 3500 RPM and has plenty of torque above 3000 RPM. Look around and get one that is loaded out. The cost is about the same as a base one in the used market and the features are worth a little leg work.

  I Love This Asian Cruise Missle - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By chipito - July 22 - 6:46 am

  The bullet nose hints at the performance of this relatively cost effective AWD sports sedan. Forward midship engine placement results in a nearly perfect 50/50 weight distribution. 100% RWD with blessed over steer until slip is detected, then up to 50/50 AWD keeps the car on track even in snow and heavy downpours. The efficient FM 3.5 V6 engine has been a dream for the price point - why spend $15K+ more for a Euro badge and more maintenance costs? BMW = Burning More Wealth; Audi= An Ultra Dollar Incinerator; Get a better AWD performance investment with Infiniti

  Another happy owner - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By kevinms99 - July 12 - 8:40 am

  Ive had the G35x since a few weeks prior to Thanksgiving. I came from a Pontiac Trans Am, so Im slowly moving toward more "reasonable" cars. The ride of the car is quite smooth. It is quiet when it is supposed to be and loud when I want it to be. I find the styling to be smooth and a bit understated (quite a difference from my previous car). Ive had no problems at all with the car, and I hope to continue being a happy owner.

  Speedy - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By My Fist Sports Car - July 9 - 4:03 am

  I got this car and it was so fun to drive that i could not get out of it. People kept saying that the car smelled good after 4 months. Love the AWD cuz it gets you out of everythings no matter how high the snow is. Exhaust note is very nice but not too annoying. Been back at dealer twice for noises but not fixed due to window bolts not tight and brake tune up.

  great car - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By bogin - July 4 - 10:33 pm

  Leased the car up in early March, just turned 3k miles on it. Have had no problems. Its wicked fast and corners like it was on rails. Gets 19-20 MPG around town, managed 28 on a recent road trip cruising at 70-75 on the interstate. Stated out looking at the G35X but after driving the coupe my wife wanted no part of having a sedan. The back seat is very comfortable but a litte short on head room. It is usable for two adults for hour long trips. Kids (read grandkids) fit very well for longer road trips. It turns heads wherever we go. The VSC works well to keep the back end in place and when turned off allows you to steer with the your right foot. Great car!

  Smokin hot car - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Jen Bosley - June 30 - 10:20 pm

  Ever looking for a car that you dont see at every stop light? Well that would be the G-35x! Its a looker when you do see one! Ive gotten alot of comments on my new G, besides constantly reminding myself what a great purchase I made! The G is a little slighted on gas mileage, but you have a 3.5 under the hood that stands at attention waiting for you to step on the gas! Very powerful car, not real comfy inside, but appointed nicely for the driver and the locations of the controls. Its absolutely the best car Ive owned! And Im always excited to hop in and drive! Never a dull moment!

  Great Sports sedan! - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By RichF - June 25 - 11:06 pm

  The 2005 Infinity G35x embodies what a luxury sports sedan should be--a sports car in a luxury sedan package! The 4WD handles nimbly with terrific acceleration, with the car going exactly where you want it to go. Steering and braking are sure and precise. Its a blast to drive! But the sports performance does not compromise the 4 door luxury comfort. Head and leg room are better than other cars in this class, and cargo room is much better than others. With the Premium package, the full complement of luxury features is at your finger tips, from keyless entry and starting, to heated seats, dual thermostat, to reclining rear seats. And, all this value for a price that cant be beat.
