You are aware that the clutch isn't covered under the powertrain warranty, correct?

If it were I'd probably beat on my car a hell of a lot more on a daily basis.

The feel and noise of the cheap interior.

I like my interior. All black. Imo if you go double din w a nice headunit its perfect. Im not really an orange light guy but all I dislike about the interior. I have around 63k on mine and I have no rattles or anything.

I dont really like the look of the non sport pkg front bumper
I dont like the amber corner lights
I dont like the little notch bump things on the grill( you can see it if you look at it in an upward angle, but it disappears when you look at the grill directly level)
I dont like the bose stereo
I dont like the a/c controls
I dont like the mpg on the car
Did I mention I hate the paint!
thats pretty much about all I can think off right now
From most of these it sounds like you bought a sports car expecting a luxury sedan. Things you are right about: the paint does suck, amber lights anywhere on the car on any car suck, bose is a ripoff company w/ very old technology that they claim to be most advanced.

Haha, man, I so agree with you. Especially if you have an aftermarket exhaust or a sound system the rattles really show themselves.

PS: I do realize that getting subwoofers and loud exhaust will eventually cause rattling, etc., but I am just drawing from my experience of having a Lexus a while back with subwoofers and the interior didn't have rattles for years, while my *stock* coupe started rattling about 3 months afte purchase (bought brand new).

+1 on all points... I always get a good laugh out of the people who bought this car expecting the quiet ride of something like a Lexus... umm, sorry Chief, you bought a sports car (Not doing your homework FTMFL)

I do wish our coupes had less cheap interior/rattles like lux sedans do though.

Infiniti was still a little green behind the ears when they made the 1st gen coupe... a lot of these problems have been improved in the second gen sedan and G37 - but I'll take my G35 over the G37 any day!

Yeah, I love/hate my coupe. The one thing that really irritates me about the car industry/game is that they change the looks of the car or have a new gen model very couple of years and it's hard to keep up. Plus there is that waste of money from modding out a car and then getting a new one when the next gen comes out. =/

Personally it's hard for me to stick to the old style and I always move on to the newer one.

^ Finally, someone without a biased opinion.

I don't think any of my Hondas sounded like this car, well maybe my CRX. LOL
