SAN FRANCISCO (June 3, 2004) – Infiniti, Nissan’s luxury division, today announced a number of significant enhancements to its popular G35 sport coupe and G35 sport sedan for the 2005 model year in North America. The changes include the introduction of a new coupe Sport model, a redesigned exterior appearance for the sedan and a redesigned instrument panel and console area with aluminum trim or optional wood trim on both the 2005 G35 coupe and G35 sedan.

Another major enhancement for the new model year is an increase in power for all G35 sedans to 277 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque (from 260 hp/260 lb-ft). The G35 sedan lineup, which added a new all-wheel drive version in the 2004 model year, also receives new exterior styling for 2005 – featuring a new hood, grille, bumpers, side sills, taillights and wheels.

The G35 coupe’s new Sport model will be available in an advanced 5-speed automatic transmission or with a close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission. The Sport 6MT model receives an additional 15-plus horsepower over automatic-equipped G35 coupe’s standard 280 horsepower, bringing its power to the 295-horsepower range (final figures to be released later).

In addition, the manual transmission design on both coupe and sedan models has been improved to provide a lower shifting effort.

The 2005 G35 sedan will be offered in four models, each equipped with a standard 3.5-liter V6, 4-wheel independent suspension and the refined exterior. For 2005, the sport-tuned suspension package has been upgraded with 18-inch lightweight cast aluminum wheels with 235/45R18 tires and drilled aluminum pedals.

The G35 coupe will be offered in three models for 2005, Coupe, Coupe Sport A/T and Coupe Sport 6MT. Both Sport models include a new sport-tuned suspension, Viscous Limited-Slip Differential (V-LSD), 19-inch forged aluminum-alloy wheels and drilled aluminum pedals.

“Infiniti built its reputation on a stunning combination of powerful rear-wheel and all-wheel drive vehicles and outstanding customer service,” said Mark Igo, vice president and general manager, Infiniti Division. “The G35 has been a key element in our recent product line expansion and with the enhancements for 2005, our product momentum remains strong.”

The 2005 Infiniti G35 sedan and coupe with automatic transmissions are scheduled to be available at Infiniti dealers in North America beginning in October 2004. Manual transmission equipped models will go on sale in December 2004.

The announcement came during the Nissan 360 news media event, a three-week program in San Francisco featuring the automaker’s current and future worldwide product and business plans. At the event, about 500 reporters had the opportunity to drive nearly 70 Nissan and Infiniti vehicles to familiarize themselves with the breadth of Nissan’s global product lineup.

Does this mean the coupe body style changed?

 

There is no mention of any body changes and/or pricing.

Thanks for the link! Now I'm happy that I've waited so long... ...even if it wasn't entirely by choice. lol

I have to wonder if "changes to the 6MT to reduce shifting effort" is going to decrease the vibration in the handle as well.



Future G35C Owner... ...Never too soon to think about modifications!!

 

Damnit this makes me mad. Look how sweet the center consol is. Also, their automatic shifter has a boot. Mine doesn't have a boot. I'm sad. Also, does anyone know where the power gains were made?

Inside my shell, I wait and bleed

This is great news, although it would be hard to wait until December for the manual. And the hype will be so crazy that you can't get a good deal until next summer. It might be worth it, we'll see how the new GTO looks in the mean time!

 

No Big Deal for me-
1. Clock relocated( no nav shown there)
2. Dash gauge lights look smooth rounded and generic
3. Silver center console will scratch, reflect annoyingly(rattle?)
4. VDC button still a PITA
5. AC controls more simple maybe?
6. Sweet stitch on wheel???
7. SPORT= 350 bumpiness??
5AT needs paddle shift/SMG/Lexus IS etc.. as far as I'm concerned

I also wonder if the cloth coupe is gone???

The 19" wheels will make the 18s" less desirable and cheaper!!
