I got rid of my blind spots by playing with the angles if my side view and rear view mirrors

It could use a power boost, especially torque (it's annoying how an idiot in a 2012 impala can keep up, or even pass you if you fumble the gearing smh)

The offset in front and rear tire sizes can be annoying sometimes when tire shopping.

When you do an exhaust mod, you lose that one of a kind VQ engine exhaust note

Brake dust is a killer on our front rims. A pain to clean, especially the split multi-spoked ones

Seat belts are the most god awful thing about this car period. After that, the mileage and the rattles.

So ive been reading around this thread now, and just my two cents....

1. It could use more power/torque for a 3.5 V6, but i can say a little of that got fixed with the MREV2 from Motordyne

2. Seatbelts seem very bad in respects to placement, and thickness (they scratch my neck, and become very tiresome after long drives)

3. Would have been nicer to have wider wheels/tires from factory (to give it that more aggressive, more hardcore look down the road)

4. Facelift models have the vertical stripes in the headlight, which dont light anymore, would have been nice to have that as a DRL

5. The stance is a little bit too high, would have been nicer if it was half an inch lower.

6. The exterior design does not allow you to roll the windows down, in even the slightest rain, or even if you use window washer fluid, if your driving, it will pour inside (from the side of the windshield)

7. I love the amount of detail, and the high quality of the ***** from the HVAC, or from the standard headunit (with the brushed aluminium, talking about facelift model) but, the seat heaters are cheap.

8, Would have loved if the seat heater buttons, light up according to which setting you chose, low or high.

9 No rear FOG lamps (very bad in Europe/Romania)

10. Parking sensors

11. Side mirrors are small, and very hard to get the big picture of surroundings.

12. Fuel gauge shows above full, when fuel tank is full, and is rather not very well in indicating fuel quantity.

Before buying the G35, i had a BMW.... and in spite of all those cons... would i go back to BMW? Not a chance, not now at least...

I love my G35 just as it is, its got character...

Just my two cents.
