IMPORTANT CONSUMER FEEDBACK! READ!

Hi folks, its now been over 5 months having my G35c 5AT Performance Package(18"Chrome) w/ Navi system. I thought I'd come here and express my experiences with this beautiful vehicle. Yes, this car is one hot car! Infiniti designed a phenomenal looking car in all respects, gorgeous from all angles, gets so much attention, its unreal. I should mention I waited about 5 months because of the NAVI option which I had to have. I love the Navi system, its superb! Infiniti's NAVI system has been ranked #1 overall amongst all other car manufactures Navi systems. I forget the source at this time, but this is a fact. As time has gone by, I'm noticing more and more minor scratches, marks, on the inner door side panels. The actual material used on the interior is not made of the highest qualtity. It's very sensitive, and if your foot touches it while getting out, immediately you will see a shoe mark created. As picky as a person I am, this is happening to me. Worst of all the actual silver round border around the built in door speakers are so damn sensitive, and cheaply painted, as if there isn't even a decent coat of colour or paint on it. A slight touch by a shoe immediately creates marks or take the actual colour of the rounded silver(greyish) border around it. This has pissed me off. Not to mention, Infiniti has cut corners by adding minimal paint to the exterior of the car. An auto body specialist pointed out to me that, he has never seen a car manufacturer use such minimal paint for the exterior of the car. This is one setback, and b/c of this any little pebble, stone, etc.. you name it easily takes the exterior paint of the vehicle. This I am not too happy about! If you pay attention to such detail you should see this and agree with me. Also just recently I am noticing that as I drive, my doors etc..make noise while I drive as if something is loose, not tight, or not secure. Apparently this is a known problem with the coupes. The interior side panels, the leather seats etc.. are not exactly fine quality. Already I am seeing my leather fading, especially the word "Infiniti" that is embroidered on the back rest portion. Also, all of a sudden my KEY FOB transmittor(also know as the remote) is not opening my doors as well as the trunk etc..I guess it could be the low power available in the battery. But I don't think so..By the way folks if you already don't know if you plan to drive this vehicle throughout the winter season, you must invest in Winter tires. There is no option with this car! AND SOME GOOD NEWS FOR those of you who have 5AT models, and not 6MT, since you we don't have Brembos, with 5AT models you can get away with putting on 16" TIRES. And of course the smaller the tire size the better it will be in Winter weather, also cheaper! Anyhow, as I was mentioning I am experiencing noises, while I drive, coming from the door closure connections or something, as if something is lookse and not tightly sealed. I can't explain it. As for WINTER CAR MATS, WEATHERTECH, HAS THE BEST CAR MATS, FINE QUALITY, BUILT TO LAST CAR MATS MADE FOR ALL SEASONS, ESPECIALLY WINTER. An expensive product! But the best also! Anyways, that is all for now, I would greatly appreciate it if all of you G35c owners would comment and give me some feedback based on my experiences with the car. Is anybody else agree with me? Have you also been experiencing some of the problems which I have mentioned?ALSO ANOTHER problem, something which I am not too happy about! Infiniti could have used the exact stainless steel effect with all the other parts within the cars interior and not just the small area surrounding the damn shifter! Theres a hugh class with the stainless steel colour surrounding the shifter, vs. the whole actual area surrounding thewhole middle area with all the driver controls. I hope you know what I am talking about. Again, the sun of a guns have cut corners here! Anyhow, its a great value priced vehicle, and no way do I regret it!Most important I don't know of any car out there, that is as beautifully designed and great value as the INFINITI G35C. As you can see, because of the great success, they sure have started to stamp these cars out on the production assembly line creating a greater supply based on such great demans,and of course thats why we are seeing so many out there on the road. However, with the Nissan 350Z, its still unique, limited, low supply etc.I still prefer the look of the G35c over the 350Z.
