Difference between years of g35's

[adlx21]

Hi. i am considering a g35 coupe, but i do not know which years are the best to get. I've heard there are bugs in some years like from 2003-2005.. after that, the bugs are fixed. is that true? i know the lower the year the cheaper the car.. but i dont want to get a g35 which has a lot of problems to fix. any help would be nice. thank you.

haha woops

let me start with there is no such thing as a 2001 or 2002 g35 here in the us. i also heard that the 03 autos had some problems with the transmissions.

I think you're right, torque decreased slightly on the 298hp but higher redline which is also known as the rev-up engine.

been curious about this...

is there any numbers of data on the 06-07 brakes compared to the brembos that came on the earlier models. I am speaking of 06-07 6mt and all earlier 6mt's.

06 6mt - 298hp and 260 ft lbs torque
06 auto - 280hp and 270 ft lbs of torque
