I was hoping to be able to order around the end of the year... now I know what color. That will be, far and away, the most elegant color on the coupe. I cannot wait to see what it will look like!

I'm not so sure that picture of the Q45 is an example of the color Lakeshore Slate. Here is a quote from an article on the Q45 - "Two new metallic exterior colors are also available for 2005 – Lakeshore Slate (medium blue) and Beryllium (medium brown)." That does not look like medium blue to me.

"Q45 - "Two new metallic exterior colors are also available for 2005 – Lakeshore Slate (medium blue) and Beryllium (medium brown)."

Thats a misprint. The medium blue is code B21. Lakeshore slate looks to me like a dark gray.

Just enjoy the car you have or going to have. A G35 is a G35. What you make of it is up to you. Whether it has different interior/exterior (rims), etc. You are the maker of you car and can tweak it to the limit of not even looking like a G35. I will like the new ones and I of course fell in love with the first G35 that hit the U.S. I have put over $13G in my car and I will enjoy every single mile of it. To all the bashers & lovers - enjoy what you have and if you want extra horses it is called modding. Or rims, BUY THEM. If you want different interior, TWEAK IT!. (Oh. I read somewhere where in this thread where they said the navigation hides the Analog clock, WELL the Navigation has a clock on it when you turn it on). Overall just enjoy what you have. Quote " It is not what you have, it is how you take care of what you do have".

After seeing these photos, I will deffinately keep my 2004. At 1st when i heard there would be changes I was considering trading up, but no way there are no worthwhile changes. I was never thrilled with the analog clock but it did eventually grow on me, but to stick it in the middle of a digital read out ? Totally lame ! 2 protruding round ***** on a smooth flat center console ? To me the interior changes are not appealing at all. I do wonder if the plastics and leathers will be as cheap as they are in the 2003-4 If anything Infinity should have kept the same interior but used better quality materials.

I look at it this way the 03 & 04's will be the classic G35's !

Where are people coming up with the wheels weighing 100lbs lighter?

I read about the helium-alloy in the CranialRectal-Inversion weekly. Makes your wheels lighter and you can fill balloons with the hot tire air after a run.

On Order: 2005 G35 Coupe Configuration

Trim Level: Automatic Leather Sport Coupe

Colors: Red, White, or Blue on Tan

Option #1: Premium Package:

Option #2: DVD Satellite Navigation

Option #3: Wood Package

Option #4: XM Digital Satellite Stereo

Option #5: Splash Guards

i totally agree that with most current coupe owners, it's not worth trading up. for me, i looked forward to the change since i was planning on trading up either way because i now want the 6mt and navi.

Wow...this is a really long thread...I probably should get back to work...heheh...but, I already have 19" wheels and a double din dash conversion and 15 more HP...guess I will keep my 03 and wait for the GTR.



My car

no we read that.

The driver's seat controls are in the same place. This tells me that there will be no memory feature. From what I have seen, if you want an auto, get a 2004 and save some money.
