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.

  2005 Infiniti G35x Owner Report - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By John K. - June 11 - 3:53 pm

  Overall the G35x is fun to drive and has lots of power. The AWD really grabs the road and makes cornering a breeze. Gas mileage is poor for a six cyl. I get about 21 on the road and 19 around town. My previous vehicle (a 6 cyl Bonneville with EFI) got 23 around town and 29 on the road with only slightly less pep.

  Pleasantly Surprised - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Review - June 9 - 2:53 pm

  After having five BMWs (3 & 5 series models) I was tired of having various problems (mostly electrical) that different dealers seemed unable or unwilling to fix. I bought the G35 because I wanted a rear wheel drive car and have been very surprised. In over 18,000 miles of driving I only had a problem with the CD player, which was replaced quickly and under warranty. The car is not quite as composed in handling as a BMW but it still does well and the engine provides a lot or performance for the money. The amount of space in the car is also great and the seats are comfortable. I am planning to buy a new model G35 for my next car.

  Great enthusiasts car! - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Cliff - May 19 - 2:40 am

  I purchased this G35 4 DR 6M sedan privately in 2006. I had been watching the reviews through the magazines and was really impressed with the style, quality and performance for the money. When I drove the car in a road test, I was sold. It had 24,000 km. I have now driven it for over 3 years and still love every time I sit in the seat. It now shows 82,000 km on the clock and I have not had any significant issues to deal with. Sure the mileage isnt great, but it didnt buy it for its economy; but more for its performance and agility. Turn off the VDC (vehicle dynamic control) and you can turn this docile elite sedan into an adrenaline rush of acceleration. I love it as do passengers.

  I Love It! - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Chrylrx - May 17 - 2:40 pm

  I have owned this vehicle for a couple of years and I love it. Not only does it look great, the performance is right up there with cars that cost a whole lot more and I have never had any trouble with it.

  Cute Car, Stinky Air conditioning - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Jemoce - May 6 - 4:03 pm

  Fun car to drive, but there is a known problem with the air conditioning with the G class. No fix, had to go to arbitration because the dealer only wanted to spray air freshner when the problem was a major issue.

  Excellent Car - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Joy - May 6 - 2:23 am

  I have ownwed Lexus, Porshe, Mercedes, and now Infiniti. I love everything about this car. Its not as quiet as the Lexus, but no car is. Lexus is still my very favorite. But the G35 tops the Mercedes and Porshe by far. We had nothing but problems with Mercedes and Porsche, would never buy another one. I have had my G35 AWD for just about a year. Its roomy yet sporty. A good inbetween for a sports car and sedan mix. The back seat is very comfortable too. Lexus or Infiniti are the way to go.

  The Head Turner - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Greg M - March 22 - 9:33 pm

  Great car. Fun to drive. I bought the Diamond ext/ black int. w/sport sup., wing. It looks like a rocket., puts the 350z style to shame. When you drive down the road, heads turn and people are twisting their necks to get a second look. I have been waiting to enter streets and seen wives telling their husbands " thats it, thats the car we need to get." This car is fun, fun, fun to drive. If you want a car thats turns heads this is the one - heck with those BMWs and the 350z ( looks like somebody to a chainsaw and cut off the rear 2feet). If you want style and great features and a car thats fun to drive.....GO G. G35 You will not be sorry.

  The most fun I have had in a car!!! - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Chris - March 18 - 10:43 am

  Infiniti has done a great job in revamping the 2005 compared to the 03- 04. The interior quality is 10 times better than before. This vehicle is a real head turner, that is what I love about it. The performance is great, you will hit 110mph before you know it. Also the new sport package is great, the fact that I can get a 19" wheel is awesome.
