What made you decide to buy a G35?

1. I have always been interested in the 350z and when i actually started searching into buying it, i figured an extra 2 seats would be nice.

2. The interior seems more technological. GPS and auto everything.

3. The only mid end sports car that ive heard with a nice oem exhaust note.

What about you guys?

I fell in love with the initial design of the Altima coupe back in like 07 when it was spied. Kept telling ppl that was my next car for sure, then 1 day talking to my uncle who is big Nissan guy he mentioned the G35 coupe. "Its a Nissan in a Tuxedo! Plus its more powerful, luxurious and its RWD." All adding up to a better car than the Altima cld ever be. Went and test drove 1 that wknd and that was all she wrote. Love at 1st site/drive. Now 5 yrs later I still love this car and actually just bought my 2nd coupe.

Me coming from a line of Acura's i had my mind on the TL S, but i wasn't too happy with the performance. IS350 both dealers i went to didn't let me take it on the freeway so i really didn't get to enjoy that car and make my decision. G35, both dealers i went to let me take it on the freeway and told me to open it up which i thought was cool. I was very happy w/ the car and the service i got from it i just went w/ the G35. ( I was looking for a brand new 2008 at the time i was shopping for a car)

Fell in love with the first press photo I ever saw of a G35 sedan (it was even green) in 2002. Took me til 2007 to be able to afford a used one, LOL.

Came from a '92 300ZXTT the G35 coupe was about the only choice since I needed a back seat and liked the design. Spend enough $$ and SLICK comes fairly close to my Z....Gary

ive always been a JDM fanboy but s14/15's have always done it for me until i seen this


after that i sold my s14 and jumped on the v35 bandwagon. i knew when i seen that vid that someday i would own a nissan v8 powered v35. the car is pure sex on wheels and will go down in jdm history as one of the sweetest sounding exhaust notes ever. My wife just got a sweet RN job so ive never been closer lol

It was love at first sight. Originally I wanted an 08 Acura TL-s but they were pretty rare in my area and were still FWD so I kept looking and instead of skipping over Infiniti, I checked out their 08 G-sedan and I had to have it after seeing the Journey model. The 306hp, RWD, and Japanese-manufactured were just extras =)

Cheapest rwd manual w/ 4 seat and lsd. ft86 and genesis didnt exist in 05, and the is200 was too underpowered for the price.

RWD, luxury car, 6mt, reliable, 4 seats/2door, its a nissan/infiniti-I have brand loyalty!

It's one thing to have modded car like a 240 or civic, but those cars just dont get the same respect a modded G or BMW or lexus gets, higher tier cars. Just like a lambo has more wow factor than a G.
