This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Powerful V6, balanced and capable handling, roomy cabin, reasonable price.
Cons:
  • Average interior materials quality, touchy brakes.

    Great 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!

    I 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.

    This 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.

    the 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!

    I really have to say, this car is fast as H";;. The nav and blue tooth make driving alot easier and fun. If i`m not watching the speedo, I will be over 100 mph plus. The power is incredible on this car.

  • This Car Is My Baby - 2006 Infiniti G35

    I bought this car 3 years ago used with 78,000 miles on it. It now has 123,000 and still drives exactly the same as it did when i got it. Simply put, I love this car. It is the most fun to drive, comfortable, and reliable car I have ever owned. To make a comparison; I bought a new 2008 Mustang in 07, and the thing started having issues within 6 months of owning it, including needing a new alternator. This car, however, has never given me any problems whatsoever. As far as performance goes, this car is like a muscular ballerina. She handles turns and sharp corners delicately, but then hits the straight-a-ways like a bat out of hell. If I had the space I could keep on for days. In short, I lo

    I bought my coupe 6MT with 15,000 miles on it about a year ago. I drive it every day and have even driven it from Michigan to California and back. It performs flawlessly and is a pleasure to drive every single day. While I think it deserves a more powerfull engine, it does ok with just shy of 300 Bhp. The exhaust note is like music but could be a bit louder. It is also a great platform for upgrades to performance. I am actually having a single turbo installed this week that will boost the hp to over 425 (crankshaft) without having to rebuild the lower end. This is a great mix of sport and luxury, I love this car!!!

    Great engine, looks. Sounds great from the outside, fairly quiet on the inside. Inside materials and fit/finish is poor (Ive actually looked at the nooks of the interior). Placement of storage and cupholders ludicrous. Shift action vague, clutch uptake high, pedal placement not good for heel-toe. Most beautiful stock rims ever. Final word: great value for performance. Quality and ergonomics of nissans not what they should be but I still love it!

  • Its a sports car, 2dr 6MT - 2006 Infiniti G35
    By -

    Very fast and affordable, still has held its resale value if thats important to you. Almost got Acura TL / BMW 328i when I decided on the infiniti. Out-drives, out-corners, and out-performs the competition. Make no mistake, this is a sports car, dont expect it to be anything else. Excellent suspension (STIFF) and power that rivals a Porsche cayman which I just recently drove. Car turns into a different beast at 100+mph and drives as well/if not better than MB E or C class sedan. Clutch is touchy and difficult at first with the electric throttle, but anyone who likes to glide through the gears will love it eventually. Good car, if it fits your mission.

    When it was time to buy a new car to replace my used Lexus GS300 I wanted the same luxury sport sedan qualities, but with the fun to drive aspect of a manual transmission. I looked at all the available cars in this class, Lexus, BMW, Cadillac and found that the G35 had the most to offer for the best value. And its a kick to drive! I decided to get the 6MT with all the sport options (ground effects, tuned suspension, spoiler etc.) and Im very happy with the car. Weve taken 2000 mile trips and enjoy every minute. The car looks great from every angle and has performed flawlessly over two years.
