How to correctly drive an MT.
I don't know whats so confusing for you guys LoL. Simple, I asked about the rev up feature. A member said he has an 05 and it does have that feature, but someone else said theirs did not. So I was just trying clear up if all '05s have this feature or if it was just an option. Also wanted to know if all 6MT coupes have it from 06 on. Seriously, is that too confusing? What am I missing here?

Yes, 05+ 6MT G35s will come with the revup motor with a standard 6MT transmission.
"The 2005 G35 coupe is aimed at the true car enthusiast. Its advanced 5-speed automatic transmission features a manual mode function with new downshift rev-matching, which revs the engine with each downshift to provide better response for the driver. The close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission offers an improved shifter for better feel during shifting. Infiniti's Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system is standard on every G35 coupe. "

So this is where I had my question answered and apparently confused everyone. I asked about the rev matching trans for downshifting and this was the answer I received. And according to the article I found 2005 AT DID have the feature...doesn't say anything about the 6MT though. So telling me about the rev up engine wasn't what I was going for.

Automatic rev matching /= 6mt revmatching...
Me too...it doesn't really make much sense on an auto but...ok. LOL
I do think it's a useful feature to have on an auto. You can downshift for the corner without unsettling the suspension. Otherwise, the trans downshifts when using the paddles, weight shifts as the wheels cause the engine to speed up. Less wear and tear on the trans fluid too.
Well, it is a transmission which shifts up and down through a series of gears by itself. Rev-matching makes perfect sense in making the thing more efficient, wearing out fewer parts while offering more performance for those that don't want to deal with a clutch through everyday traffic.
