New g35 Coupe owner / few questions

First, I'm glad to be here! Just got the car a week ago so I have a lot to learn.

So, here goes:

Does anyone know of the optional packages available on our CDN models? I'm just curious what options were added to my car ( the dealership didn't give me that info. Not an Infiniti dealer).

My car is a 2003 Coupe (A/T). I know I have optional 18' rims, a sunroof, titanium trim, homelink, dual climate, etc.. but I know some things that were options on the USD models were probably standard on ours.

Also, since it is winter right now, I'm glad I have a block heater.. but the cord for it is sticking through the lower grill on the front of my car. Just curious on how to hide it during the summer months? It looks like the plug is way too big for the holes in the grill.

I'm sure I will think of more questions later

Welcome to the forum!
18" rims are part of the sport package, and if you have Bose audio, you have the premium package.
for the block heater, remove the cap. the plug itself can be snugly put through the grill, and you can just force the cap through separately. wrap some electrical tape around it, use a zip tie and clamp it to something behind the grill.

I see. I'll probably give it a try when the weather warms up (the plastic would probably be more pliable anyway). Thanks.

I am located in Saskatchewan. Time to update the profile I guess.

Welcome...

Looks like the only option you have is the CDN$1000 Performance Package (18" wheels/tires + titanium-look trim + limited slip diff)...sunroof, automatic headlights, Bose audio, dual-zone climate control, Homelink and the auto-dimming rearview mirror were standard in Canada on the 2003 (contents of the optional USD$2250 Premium Package in the U.S. - equivalent to the Performance Package was an additional USD$650).

Hope that helps...

It's Desert Platinum! I fell in love first time I saw it. Very different to other silvir'ish cars around. And I'll make sure to take some pics when I can, weather is pretty 'blah' this time of year. I'll ***** it out in the summer though

And thanks to everyone for the welcome.
