Great review, The only thing I don't like about my '05 is the seatbelt holder rubbing against the seat shoulder or my neck. I don't think this changed until the 2006 model.
I have 2 JL 10w3, you'll be surprise on what I can fit in there.

@Sukairain, great review!!! I agree in all areas.
But if you are going to keep the G35, then the extended warranty wasn't wasted ....your's is the infiniti 10 year 100K mile one isn't it? I am following the same path...I'm keeping the G35 with the extended warranty and am putting the money saved into restoring another toy.

After spending 3 months driving in my 2006 G35 6mt, I wanted to sell it right away. Horrible road noise, rattles, cluch clankyness, popping sound coming from the rear over every dip or uneven surface, poor acceleration and the black paint was hard to keep clean. (scratches really easily and pollen sitting on the paint leaves embeeded mark on the coat thats hard to remove)..
Anyways, after taking it to the dealership, they found out the the rear axle bolt was (loose) causing the majority of the popping noises. Once that was fixed, I was a bit happier. But the clutch noise was still there and not the smoothes out there. (I owned a S2k before and that clutch/shifting was smooth). The S2k was also torque and Rev happy. A lot more spunk then the G.
The only thing keeping me from selling the car is the resale value and the just the Pure Look of the car. It's just once nice *** looking ride.
The best offer received for the car was 25k.. Car has 8k miles, blk on blk, fully loaded with everthing. (spots pkg, premium, 19" wheels, Navi, Rear active steer all the bells and whistles). Paid 40k out the door. Almost 45% price drop in resale value in just 6 months of ownership.. WOW...
KBB says 36k, but no one has even offered me 30k... Maybe because the majority of the buyers who are interested are HS kids..

Listen up everyone. Ive had my car for almost a year now. I hated the stock clutch also. I just had the Jim Wolfe Technology Clutch/Flywheel Combo along with a new transmission installed 2 weeks ago. Now im back in love with the car. Get a new clutch, you will be so happy with the results
