#1 complaint is the weight. But I knew that going in, and deal with it just fine (read: F/I )
#2: The clutch travel is insanely long, and engages so HIGH.
#3 The notchiness of the stock shifter, and how it vibrates like crazy.
#4 Now that it's on the verge of being replaced, the price is coming down and there will soon be kids buying G's and modding them with ugly/tacky parts.


Still, I love the car. Just as sexy now as when it was first unveiled. I think most people tend to agree, including non-owners. Even more of a great value now, with a nice compromise of sport/luxury.

Thank God for the great lines on my Coupe. If it was not for the good looks of my car, between the eating up of tires, and the symphony of rattles, I would have abandoned ship a long long time ago.

The only thing going for the G is pretty much the exterior,

if you stop and think about it everything else Infiniti decided to make cutbacks on...paint, materials, even the engine isn't as efficient as its rival cars(bmw, lexus, acura) in terms of gas mileage not to mention the horror stories of customer satisfaction(think old G brake issue and the lawsuit to finally make Infiniti take customers serious)

doesn't really build confidence in a company...

I swear there was another thread with the same topic.

anyways...

1. seat belt
2. unattractive steering wheel
3. Head unit and the AC control are one unit
4. no head room
5. that buzzing sound behind the clock
6. orange color, wish it was blue

i dont like the auto window function, when i only want the window down a little it closes all the way....or it might just be my saussage fingers?



only other thing i dont like is there are only 47 of these cars here in england, and ALL parts have to come from japan (rh drive bits) or USA (pain in the ar*e)
apart from these little things its the best car i have owned, and that list includes R33 GTR skylines.

your lucky over there.

If we were taking a poll on the top 3 items that received complaints, I'm sure the tires would top the list! Front feathering, and rear middle tread wear. You can be sure that JD powers and or Consumer Reports will reflect this in the coming years. Unacceptably poor design.

Mine has a few quirks...

1) Definately the interior rattles, definately.
2) My driver side door speaker...it only seems to work when it wants to *groan*
3) The soft PAINT. My coupe was only 2 years old when I got it and she already had rust spots from rock chips...I've since had it taken care of but what's up with that? Seriously.
4) Gas mileage. It's not THAT bad but it could be better....it would be a little bit if i stopped getting on it
5) The tire wear
6) The slooooooooow moving seats, lol. I could probably change the oil before they're done moving.

Other than these things, i love the car. She sounds mean, runs strong...and come on, it's a G...she's beautiful, i don't regret buying her at all <3

Interior rattles
Leather stretches too easily
Road noise

the fact that nobody has purchased mine, it's for sale

dislikes:
*can't recirculate cabin air w/o turning the AC on.
* stupid log looking thing on the dash that runs across the dash and cuts off at the door. doesn't blend in at all
* no torque
* crappy paint, i have a black car and its pretty bad.
* how people can't seem to drive out of a parking lot when a G is right across from it. my car was hit twice by someone backing into it.
* no nose mask for the sports bumper
* horrid gas mileage. avg 16-18mpg with granny driving in city. no redlining at all, and shifting at 3-3.5k.

likes:
* the way it looks stock. 6mt sports. no need for kits and stickers.
