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.

  Great entry luxury sedan - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By jbg27 - March 15 - 2:16 pm

  Incredible performance, especially accelerating through curves, great power, well designed and functional interior. Compared this with the Acura TSX and TL and maybe its just me growing up with rear wheel drive sports cars, but the Infiniti seemed head and shoulders above the Acuras. The dealer was great, too. I guess people complained about the interior in earlier years -- looked at the 03 and 04, and the 05 looks as good as the Acura to me.

  By timsit - February 24 - 12:36 am

  Just purchased the G35 coupe with prem. pkg. Its an absolute blast to drive! Great performance and great looks - you cant beat it for the price. The car is great overall although a few minor things could use improvement.

  Best Car - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Paul - February 23 - 6:16 pm

  Best Car Ive ever owned. Beautiful Women looking with that look in their eyes when looking at the car. They never did that with my old Honda Civic, Ill tell you that. Exterior design is beautiful, although I prefer the coupe styling the 2005 revision was a nice upgrade. Interior needs slight improvement but it is better than last year. The drive is nice & smooth. The ride is clean & comfortable, what you expect from an luxury vehicle. Also, when you want you can kick in the sport aspect with the 280 horsepower. Its a beautiful car & my friends with a new BMW 3 series or Audi A4 series are regretting their purchases now.

  Just Purchased - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Recent College Grad - February 1 - 11:56 am

  Having just purchased a pre-owned G35x, I can only offer my initial thoughts. The exterior design, particularly with chrome wheels and tinted windows, is upscale without being too flashy. I cant get enough of the acceleration and handling which blow the doors off my previous car, an Audi A4. I echo the general comments about poor fuel economy and somewhat sub-standard interior plastics which contrast the quality-feeling upholstery. For bang for the buck, however, you can’t top the G35, especially if you wait a year and save 10 grand on a pre-owned.

  Best used car ever purchased - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Pierre - December 31 - 8:46 pm

  I purchased a used G35 sedan from a friend going through a divorce and needed to sell his car. Perfect timing for me as by far, this is the best used car I ever purchased. Fun to drive, great handling, performance and it still looks brand new.

  Lovin it - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By MT - December 28 - 9:53 am

  No complaints so far! Very fun to drive. I actually cant wait to drive to work every morning. The acceleration is acceptional and with the sport-tuned suspension in the hills, I have to remind myself that its not a race car and to SLOW DOWN! Its been years since Ive driven a sedan and I hadnt realized how good it could be.

  Best Small Sedan.....Period - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By Joe - November 24 - 12:30 am

  Im one of those customers that car dealers love - I buy way too many cars too quickly. Ive had 10 cars in the past 12 years. I do Extensive research before buying a car so I get a good deal and am as pleased as possible with my purchase. But thats why I generally go back for another purchase - theres either something that could be better with my car or theres something better in a newer car. After purchasing/driving the G35, I can say this is without a doubt The Best car Ive ever owned. Interior finishes truly luxury. Exterior styling is sporty, but understated. Driving experience is unmatched: Very powerful, smooth daily driver, and yet will respond to aggressive driving nicely

  World Beater on a Budget - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By JM in FL - November 10 - 6:30 pm

  The G35 coupe is the finest vehicle Ive ever had the fortune to own. Certainly, there are higher performing or higher luxury vehicles out there. But few cars at this price point combine such ample parts performance, refinement, and inspiring form *and* function. While some cars, it seems, are so “perfect” that they are little more than lifeless, artless appliances devoted only to the task of being faithful, workday conveyances, the G35 hasnt forgotten that a few people in this country actually enjoy driving. The G35 encourages spirited driving and inspires personal attachment by channeling a passionate personality that is greater than the sum of its parts.

  Oh my goodness! - 2005 Infiniti G35
  By SCP - October 26 - 9:10 pm

  This car is gorgeous. Wish they could have just given up the extra two horses to make it an even 300hp. Regardless itll pin you to your seat even at 60mph. Nice interior, great features and supurb handling. Tell me the difference between this and a Porsche C2; about 30k in my pocket with a nicer better equipped car in my garage. I love my new ride. I travel for work and trust me I can not wait to get home and drive it. Go take one for a spin, youll be hooked.
