Wow! - 2008 Infiniti G35
By BamaFan - April 26 - 10:56 pmWow! What a fun car to drive. I test drove one, and I spent three months trying to talk myself out of buying it. I hated myself for wanting to buy it because I did not need a new car. I finally gave in, and I have not looked back. It makes me smile everyday.

A great car - 2008 Infiniti G35
By Sam - April 24 - 11:26 pmI have been eyeing the G series ever since the first one came out. My 1998 Accord finally gave me fits, so it was a chance to hop into a G35. I had a great deal on the 2008 vs. a 2009 so I decided to pull the trigger. I love the interior, and the color scheme. The Premium package is a must. I like the G35S but at $2200 more, I decided to go without. I love the way it looks, and the manu-shifting is great. Not as instantaneous as a 6MT, but I rarely race, if ever. All in all, would definitely do it again. Didnt care much for the navigation (already have an awesome $200 Garmin) and the CF slot. With an iPod and an MP3 CD player, who needs CF?

2008 G35x is the car to beat - 2008 Infiniti G35
By dori - April 18 - 8:56 amOf all the many cars I owned, this is the most fun and best thought-through car. Handling, power, road feel, road-noise level are all first class. The navigation and the rest of the electronics are wonderfully integrated and easy to learn and use. The screen is very bright and is useable even in sunny days. The 3 ways to control most functions (voice, knobs and touch- screen) make it fun abd easy to use under all conditions. The trunk access is too narrow, with a high barrier so that placing groceries and baggage is a hassle. Driver seat can not be pushed back enough for my frame (511").

Excellent Ride... Fun to Drive!! - 2008 Infiniti G35
By OnebadTKE - March 29 - 9:06 amI have been looking at the usual culprits in this class of vehicle for about 2 1/2 months now -- BMW, Lexus and Infiniti (both M35 and G35). I LOVED the G35 from the time I sat down until the time I left the dealership last! To get the MOST enjoyment from the car, I definitely recommend the Sport option for the added bonus of the seat upgrade! Granted the different sized tires may be a problem for some, but I have had to buy sport tires on my last 2 vehicles so am used to the cost! Regardless of some of the other "complaints" on the car, the gas mileage is a non-issue...unless you are coming from a Honda Civic or Mini- Cooper! 20 MPG city/25-28 MGH HWY is great for a PERFORMANCE SEDAN

Excellent Sport Machine - 2008 Infiniti G35
By Spankee - March 15 - 6:53 pmThis car was purchased from my company for $10,000 less than blue book. I had my eye on a sports car, but with a luxury look. This was it. I had an Infiniti QX56, but with gas prices, I just could not afford to let the tags, insurance, and now gas eat away at my pocketbook. This car is fun to drive. This car is awesome. My G35 Sport has the automatic/manual/paddle shifters on the steering wheel which makes this car more fun to drive. The only thing is that since I drive this car fast, I wish it had a bigger gas tank.

Fun to Drive - Just a Little Cramped - 2008 Infiniti G35
By PBenjung - March 6 - 9:40 amSuperb acceleration and holds the road well. A good looking car with features you cant find at the price. I chose this over the Acura TL. The TL is a quieter driving experience but it doesnt have the raw power and machismo of the G35.

Deceptively Fast - 2008 Infiniti G35
By Lou - February 4 - 5:56 amAfter evaluating the Merecedes C350, BMW 335 and the Lexus IS350, I recently chose the Infinity G35XS. One of the compelling reasons was the value for the dollar compared to the others. Infiniti offers the power, sport/luxury look with the latest hi- tech technology for under 54k tax-in. Hard to say no to that.

Couldnt be happier - 2008 Infiniti G35
By lovemyG - January 17 - 2:23 amI admit Im biased, I wanted the G since I saw the first photos of the 2007 model. I waited out the lease on my previous vehicle, then searched for more than a month to find a 6spd Sport. I live in upstate NY and took delivery in late November at the start of snow season; after nearly 2 months, I have no regrets about buying RWD. A set of Blizzaks all around, plus VDC and a light touch on the throttle and clutch, and I havent had a problem at all. The G is everything I wanted; stylish, sophisticated, RWD, 6MT, with all the tech gadgets I could ask for. A friend rode in it and commented "Nice, but not a BMW or Audi." Which is exactly why I bought it.

Perfect car so far... - 2008 Infiniti G35
By Aubrey179 - October 28 - 8:46 amI have had absolutely no problems with this vehicle. I purchased it about 70 miles from my home, because I did have an extremely rude experience at my local dealership (Auto Place Infiniti, Buffalo, NY). I am sure the Infiniti company would not stand by that behavior, and I presume it was an isolated event, however, inexcusable. Rochesters Dorschel Infiniti, its email/purchasing communications, were flawless! It has been extremely reliable, with nothing but maintenance costs, thus far. I do wish the fuel economy was a bit better. And the only technical quality gripes I have with it are that the side view mirrors are not heated, and the trunk lid quality and closure feels a bit cheap.
