The forum has been great!

The G35, not so great. Too many creaks and rattles. The seats were too uncomfortable for anything longer than a half hour. The leather, soft as it was, stretched way too fast, the paint too soft, the oil burned too much, the blue tooth sucked, 1st to 2nd shift too quirky....

You get the point.

The car is sold!!!!!

Good timing too, my G35 Premier membership just ran out.
Now THAT, is worth it BTW. Got your premier membership, support the forum, and enjoy the premier section.

I'm out!DOMO

what u gunna drive now?

 

congrats on the sale, i don't blame you, too many little problems. I miss my good ol' civic sometimes.

 

I never sold my 2000 v6 accord coupe. It's automatic and fwd but, it has a good size trunk, the leather has held up great, it gets good mileage, doesn't burn oil, at 87K miles it has less rattles than the G did at 5k........

I'm going to freshen the accord up a bit, dyna mat, and new struts, and I have a friend who will paint it for cheap.

I'll prolly drive the accord till it dies. The money from the G is going into a retirement fund. Yes, it was paid for.

 

All the negative items you listed don't apply to my G35.......I wonder why?
I could drive my G all day and never be tired when I bailed out....and zero
squeeks and rattles. The clearcoat is soft but I took care of that with several layers of Zymol coucourse........I'm good for the long haul!

 

you got a lemon! it happens.

 

yup, i got a lemon. funny, lots of other people have the same complaints and more.

 

I have an 05 Auto -
I will agree with the leather issue, otherwise it's superb.
Drove it from NYC to FL - No problem =)

 

6 months with my G running strong no problems... just installed an intake loving it everytime i step on the gas.

 

no problems here =] mines smoooooooth as silk

 

asta la vista! good luck with the next car man.

 

yea...i have pretty much similar problems to yours and hate it but i have no other car so i am sticking with the G.

 

Good luck. I think the seats are really hit and miss dependent on the person. I feel my seats are the most comfortable car seats I've ever been in...fits GREAT and I could literally drive four hours and not feel a thing.

 

i love the rattles...it keeps me awake

 

After 8 hours of driving a Ford F250 at work, it's pays to keep a G35 Coupe. The drive home, I can hear all these creaks and rattles which keeps my mind on the road.
