At least with the AT you only have to put it in drive and go. I have to keep shifting as it burns the pattern into the palm of my hand each time I reach to shift.

I hate the image associated with the G35. It's seen as a ricer car. And it is based on what I have seen. Too many people focused on "carbon fiber" inserts, window tint, and throttle body spacers. This is not a racecar by any means. Some people build some decent turbo setups but there aren't many real fast Gs. But everyone acts like it's a racecar... Gives us a bad image, the same image V6 Mustang and V6 Camaro drivers have (without a mullet thought).

^Too many "kids" ending up with G's these days. And there's nothing wrong with window tint, it serves purposes other then just looks.

Yes, too many kids. Window tint serves some purpose. The G I bought had that crap stick on stuff. It was already turning purple. Looked terrible.

I'd much rather have that pattern burned into my hand than have a 5AT... my Z was 6MT and it was so much more fun than shifting into drive and hitting the gas. 5AT is ONLY good for traffic jams, THATS IT!!

Got my car back from the shop yesterday...had him (instead of me, because he did it for free ) install a passenger side seat belt receiver in place of my way-too-tall/high driver side one. It is MAYBE a whole inch to 1.5 inches shorter. It's not noticeable when you're looking at it, but once you strap in, it feels completely different; much more comfortable!

I've only have my baby for 2 months and in return, I have 2 things I don't like about it.

1. The ufcking driverside seatbelt keeps on scratching the side of my door! Everytime I unbuckle and retract the seatbelt, the metal bracket scratches the leather door. And it aint like I can buff it out.

2. Why the ufck did Infiniti have to have it's headlamp settings as - auto, parking (courtesy) light, then low beams?!? Shouldn't it be parking, low beams, then auto? It's like what if you're trying to sneak your as* out of somewhere and ufck right when you turn the ****, BAMN! Headlights are on!


Who's next?
The only thing i dislike is lack of AUX/built-in bluetooth/ and maybe navi. there is nothing that I hate though about my 2005 g35 sedan.
