Overview & Reviews
Most of what's new for the 2006 G35 is related to the coupe version. Last year's Sport Package, which is standard on coupes with the manual transmission, now includes a unique front fascia, side sills and an optional rear spoiler. Infiniti has further bolstered the coupe's sporting intentions by making an active rear-steer system available. Unlike passive rear steering systems, this design features motor-driven control to help improve the vehicle's handling performance by adjusting the rear suspension geometry according to steering input and vehicle speed. A quicker steering rack is also part of the package. Other changes this year on the Infiniti car include standard HID headlights for the coupe and Bluetooth connectivity for all G35s.
- Powerful V6, balanced and capable handling, roomy cabin, reasonable price.
- Average interior materials quality, touchy brakes.

Great Car - 2006 Infiniti G35
By JeffH - September 30 - 12:10 pmI was in a severe accident in this car, and I walked away without a scratch. Very very reliable safety features!

No nonsense sports sedan - 2006 Infiniti G35
By ppnff - September 5 - 2:36 amTraded in a 2003 Honda Accord for this vehicle, looking for better rear wheel drive handling and ability to carry the kids around. Exhaust tone is great, subtle on freeways, but opens up to let everyone knows its presences. Simple interior layout and design, and none of the out-of-control electonic gizmos (except it does have Bluetooth), gorgeous exterior design. G35s price point makes other rear wheel drive vehicle look like price divas. Love the car!

Youth Recaptured - 2006 Infiniti G35
By Barry Hubbard - August 8 - 1:20 pmI liked my 2003 G35 so much I traded for a 2006 just like it. The most noticeable difference: the brakes are just as powerful but no longer hyper- sensitive, i.e. grabby. Maneuverability and instant throttle response make highway or city driving a delight...at any speed (I had the 2003 up to 120 mph once - I wont tell you where - and it felt rock-solid). I enjoy the 2006s added features - high intensity headlights, dual-zone a/c, power passenger seat, and garage door opener, but theyre "gravy" on what was already a wonderfully thought out car. It "fits like a glove," seats four comfortably, and looks the way a sport sedan ought to look. At 68 I feel young again.

Bye Bye BMW - 2006 Infiniti G35
By Rob - June 29 - 7:10 amI read a review of the G35x before I purchased it in which the reviewer said, "I just bought a G35X, can someone please wipe the smile off my face?" I bought the car and cant think of a better way to recommend it. Driving this car is like driving a space shuttle. It handles, it accelerates, and it makes you feel like driving. I now look at the BMW 3 Series cars I passed over for this one and thank myself again and again for doing so. As far as a driving experience goes for a luxury sports sedan goes, it just can;t get any better than this.

2006 Infiniti G35 4dr - 2006 Infiniti G35
By dmclean3 - May 7 - 6:26 pmExcellent power and great handling characteristics. Exterior design is attractive, but not drop dead gorgeous like the coupe. I really like the modern dash treatment. The motorized pop-up nav system is also a really neat feature since I prefer not to see the screen unless I need directions (in my opinion its a shame this wont be carried over in the 2007 redesign). Some people have complained about the quality of the interior materials and I have to agree that that was one things that held me back from buying this car in 2003 and 2004, but Infiniti has done a lot to remedy this complaint in 2006. I wont say that the interior is up to Audi quality, but it doesnt feel cheap anymore.

m - 2006 Infiniti G35
By ron - January 30 - 8:46 amGreat car for the money! Comfortable, easy to handle, with plenty of power. Gas mileage is a problem though. getting 15 miles per gallon highway street combined! Dont believe what you read about gas mileage cause it is not accurate!Sound system bose is amazing!!! Worth the extra money. No input for i pod though. Handles well in the snow and ice very steady and safe to drive!

Great Car - 2006 Infiniti G35
By Mike - January 26 - 4:56 pmI love driving this car. Ive had it about a month and have 1200 miles on it. I came from a 2001 Saab 9-3 with tons of torque steer to the G35 with zero torque steer! Ive found about 6 different ways to get home from work that involve twisty-curvey roads. The car has practically no body roll even when pushed hard. Ive only got to drive in the snow once but the all wheel drive made it a snap. Im always looking for another excuse to drive somewhere.

Awesome Pawsome, Im Smitten! - 2006 Infiniti G35
By Ruah - January 2 - 1:40 pmThis thing has paws and claws!! GZZZZZZZ i feel 35 again :)! I cant get enough of it...been in it for 3-4 months now, and still in the honeymoon phase~ I want to go just drive it all the time. One of the cons mentioned by edmunds is the uncomfortable tightness of suspension. I find it loosening as time goes on, and I love the "tightness" in the curves...hummm! And yeah, it hummmmsss...people have commented on the roaring hummm...beautiful song it is. The styling is awesome...reminds me of a cross between a porsche carrera and Ferrari dino...and although not in their hp status, it moves and groves and soothes... I dont like the how the doors sound...it should thump these rattle.

tiger dressed up as a kitten - 2006 Infiniti G35
By Patel - November 10 - 3:36 amthe ride is not at all what we expected. it handles so well, if you closed your eyes it felt like a BMW, with the power to go with it. it is much roomier inside that the exterior lets on. we were looking for a not-so-big, not-so-small car, and we found it. seats 5 adults comfortably, and has connectors for child safety seats. it is a huge buy for the money!
