Where is the handbrake??

Is there a handbrake on the G35 automatic? I don't see one on mine neither on the sedan of my brother.

there isn't one on the auto. it's a foot parking brake. to the left of your brake.

it's a Mini Van style.

I told that to one of the sales man. He got a good Laugh out of it.

But seriously. Why not a normal Hand Brake.

yeah, I hate the stupid foot break, probably the biggest thing I dislike about my G even thought I really have no need to use it.

yeah, I don't see why it being an auto should affect it. I had a maxima before my G and it had a handbrake.

Stop......you're killing me!

You can't be serious! If I were you I wouldn't be posting questions until you
read the manual and become familar with your car. Sit down in your car with
the manual and discover the wonderfull world of the G! All or most of your
questions are answered within those pages........man the service writers are
going to have a ball with you! Ya know, the service writers at the stealership!

as an ex-manual driver, i was very sad to see the 'foot brake' instead of the hand brake on a sports car

i'm not trying to flame the OP, BUT what I found interesting was that neither him, nor his brother (who he stated owned a g35 sedan) knew where it was. you'd think 1 of them could figure it out, or would notice the extra pedal to the left.
