What do you hate about YOUR G35?

VDC is the best thing ever, but not when it cuts your REV Limit
The mirrors sit to high (I always put my mirrors down to prevent curbing a rim)
The mirrors don't have the "parking feature" (where the mirror goes down automatically like BMW)
The mirrors aren't heated
The rattling clutch plate
The heat from the engine
But other than that no complaints. Every car has something that we don't like and we still buy them.

Only 2 things I can really add here about my 06. The center armrest is too far back for me. I am average height, but where my seat is in relation to the center console, my right elbow is just barely resting on the armrest and falls off sometimes.
The other is the headlights. The "auto" function sucks. It should turn on the lights if the windshield wipers are on for more than 30 seconds. I drove for 30 minutes in a heavy storm today because I assumed they came on (like they did in my BMW).
Had my car for 1 week now, and the seatbelt, uncomfortable seat, too much plastic in /around dash and the notchy clutch engagement are my main beefs. But everytime I hit the gas, or look down and I'm doing 90+ and it feels like I am doing 60...and especially everytime i get out of it and look back at it...the other stuff does not matter so much.
So many people comlain about lack of memory seats. Was that new in 2006 or something? Or do you have to have Premium package? My 06 has memory seats and they are also programmed to the remote so that if i unlock the car with my remote, the seat and the tilt/telescopic wheel are set in my position...and if the other remote is used it defauts to the settings for that one...

'06 G35 6MT, Aero and package b. 1100 miles and counting
1. Audio System lacks mid range and a SHUFFLE FEATURE, still pretty good for a stock system
2. Clutch / tranny - sometimes I am right on! Other times I wonder if I know how to drive stick
Other than that, this car is a rocket ship with excellent handling. I turned off the VDS tonight at a light before getting onto the freeway. This marks the first time I drove it like it should be driven. Holy sh*t I was on the freeway doing 110 before I knew it.
I also have to admit, I love the attention the car brings me...

I'm not gonna bother reading the previous ones or repeat what I think are the common ones. So this is a list I think the car SHOULD of had. Most of the other minor problems the g has can't be help.
-don't you think the hood should of had hydraulics or some kind of dampener?
-WHY?! didn't infiniti add the projectors from the start?! MANY older cars had them![Wink](https://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
-the dipstick, oh you horrible horrible dipstick...
-footbrake. I have 2 other cars with footbrakes. but NOOOO!! the g had to come with footbrake too
dissapointed XD
-"skyline" tradition: the BOTH the circular lights should light up
. Instead of having the far light as a signal...make it a circular LED light as well! ![Big Grin](https://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

these minor things would of made this car reach RECORD sales XD. The intelli key is minor, but it would of been nice to have it since the sedan already had it
. thats all for now!

too slow.
too heavy. acceleration and braking suffer greatly because of this.
understeers.
cheap paint.
factory sound system is atrocious.
VDC comes on way too much. you can't gun it early out of a corner without VDC coming on. of COURSE there is going to be slipping of tires. LSD on-power = tire slip
oh. the navigation system is quite possibly the worst thing i've ever used.

got my car yesterday 06 6mt black
1) the headlight switch thing. when i was turning it on last night, i was looking for the "on" switch. i knew there was an "auto" switch on there, but didnt know it was right next to the "off" switch. anyway, when while i was messing with it, the car in front of me thought i was trying to give him a message, when i was really trying to do is lookin for that damn light junk.
2) i love the short-throw shifter, but i'm not used to it. i tend to jam it while shifting x_x
3) when i shift, no matter how soft or baby shift...the car tends to jerk like as if i'm in a roller coaster ride or something...is that normal?
