I went and test drive the 05 G35 and the clutch feels too soft. It feels like driving a manual corolla! Is this common? Also, when I drove it, it seem so smooth. You can't feel no pull or good respone when flooring the pedel. Feels like lack of low end power!

Clutch is probably going out. Were the rpm high and power low?

Or.... You were in a too high of a gear so flooring it didn't do much. Try downshifting then flooring it.

By looking at most people sigs and what year model car they drive, I'd say most are bias. But honestly, the 04 is the better "deal".

I would probably go for the 04 with brembos.

Why would go with the 04' and Brembos after asking which is cheaper to upgrade? Brembos are $1200 or so. A rev-up motor is $7k.

The 19" wheels are an option, just like the 18" wheels are on the 04'.
