4. The lights don't blink when unlocking with remote. (Blink while locking).
5. The car feels heavy.
1. it can be adjusted
2. check to see at what rpm its set at
3. wear a collar shirt
4. mine do, to fix check manual. tells you how
5. lose weight
I agree with syshs reason 3, I don't why you can't adjust the seatbelt hight from the side pillar. However the 2006's-07's have a fix for this. Everything else could be fixed, so I don't why would someone complain about it.

I also agree LightsOut answer to number 5, LMAO

What should it made of than?? Metal?? Or would you rather not have it at all?? IMO when close, I think it gives the console a clean and complete look.

I know its an old post... but pretty much dead on, cheapest interior evAr. Road noise is a bitch too.

Gas mileage isn't the best, but better than my Titan which gets 12-15mpg or so. Seems like the G gets 16-17 and 20ish on the freeway.

I'm sure it can be done if I smashed chicks in my CRX 7 years ago. I had a chick ride me in the passenger seat and another time mounted a chick in the back. HAhaha. Its bad luck anyways...

Alpine Green??? Who wants green gauges??? Keep POS green gauges in POS Domestic cars.

Also you the tranny, I take it that you have a Auto.

4. Gas mileage
5. The temp control system that changes the system back to where it wants it, every time I shut the car off. If I wanted the air on recirculate, I would have put it on recirculate.
6. Clutch engagement is jerky, especially in first gear
7. Oil dipstick designed by idiots. Almost impossible to take out/insert
8. Vision trying to change lanes is really bad. Big blind spot.
9. Handbrake hardly holds at all, unless you really jerk hard on it.
what he said

-Clutch remedy

https://g35driver.com/forums/showthr...=clutch+remedy

Basically shortens the distance u have to push in order to engage/disengage.. and no more "dead zone" at the start.. where u push it and it just seems to be a buffer zone then the clutch engages..

1. more tq please
2. huge blind spots
3. i dunno if anyone else has this problem but the seats hurt my lower back muscles, i can't find a good comfortable supporting position
4. my sticking clutch! (the dealership is working on it now for the 4th time)
5. the orange interior gauge and radio/ac lighing... it's ugly and looks like 10 year old technology (i have an 05)
dont get me wrong i wouldnt have picked any other car for the money but NOTHING is perfect... well maybe the NEW GTR!
