What do you hate about YOUR G35?

While many out there who don't have G35 envy us for our flawless rydes, I'm sure there are the little things about our G that we hate. Either from the design of the hood to the design of the trunk. Lets see what fellow G owners have to say and probably get "Dittos" on. I'll start...

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?

I agree with the headlights, that part didn't make too much sense. The only other thing I don't like is the seat belt hitting my neck, but that has been discussed many times. Everything else I love.

I hate the mechanical seat... if it's freakN' raining hard @$$ hell... trying to get someone in the back is retarded... and then bringing it back up so you can get in... by that time... everything is all wet... and there's something with the seat that's really not comfortable...

Sunroof closes to slow. Seems like I'm always waiting for it to close before I can get out of my car.

Ditto on the seat belt thing.

Needs 50 more horses.

Can't change the headers yourself unless your name is Reed Richards.

That's about it.

The electric-seat control placement is annoying... ...which none of you have probably noticed.

That's my biggest gripe. The brake resevoir really should have a cover over it from the factory and I dislike the chrome metal insert inside the headlights, but those are relatively minor. Seatbelt with the extension thing fits me good. Another 30HP and TQ would be sweet.

If I had tranny problems (or if I do... ...I'm still under 500 miles) then that would be my biggest gripe, without question.

The lack of a driver seat memory!!!! Once my wife uses my car, it seems to take days to get it back just right, and then she uses it again and I am right back where I started.

If the backside were any smaller/narrower, I wouldn't be able to fit my golf clubs in the trunk.

I hate that it's sitting in the parking lot right now on a sunny, slightly cloudy 75-80 degree day and I'm sitting here at my desk at work.....

1) Blind Spot
2) Windows/Sunroof don't close when you lock the car. Its the one thing I miss from my MkIII VWs.
3) The modding bug has hit me again.

Hate is definitely the wrong word, Minor Annoyances that I can live with is more like it:

1. The seatbelt almost never wants to retract on its own in my car. I have to guide it through the extender loop everytime I get out, or it gets shut in the door.

2. Lack of memory seat, especially since its an MT coupe. Asking rear seat passengers to get in and out of the car on the passenger side can be a little annoying.

3. You can't open the windows at all if the car is wet or water will drip in. Even using the windshield washers makes water drip in the drivers window if it's open

4. Like someone elsse said, the rattles.

The only thing that really bothers me is that I can't get the drivers seat to go any lower. I had to hunch over or tilt my head out the sunroof to fit in there with a helmet on.
