The G35 Sucks
...Cold air that is... 
29 degrees +
4 High Performance All Season Sport Tires (because the Summer Pilots suck in the winter)+
280 plus HP =
1 fun car to drive
Just thought I'd share.

I was thinking the same thing this morning while driving to work. It was 15 deg F outside and my G was lovin' that cold air. Throttle response felt really crisp.
Edit: Sorry... this is the first time I had my G out in really cold air. I bought only 2 months ago.

It feels more responsive when you floor it.

You usually get about a 1% horsepower gain per every 8 to 9 degree drop in air temperature, assuming humidity and pressure are similar. Realisticly, humidity is usually a lot lower in winter though, but humidity doesn't have that much of an impact on the equation.... but pressure does.
