Question What does the "S" add to the G35?

Hey guys first post.
I have done some searching and can't find real specific answer.
I currently drive a 2006 Maxima SE and the lease it up in June.
I'm looking to bump up to a G35 Coupe. I know the X is awd but what does the S add? I'm looking for a 2004-2006. which is better?
are there any G35 to stay away from?
Also how much faster will it be than my Maxima?

thanks

There is no such thing as a G35 S from 2004-2006, there is also no such thing as a G35X coupe.

S is for "sport" and I believe the badge is only used on G35 sedans and G37's.

If you can drive stick you'll have 295hp with a 6MT.

Otherwise it's 275hp with 5AT.

You have bad numbers.

6mt from 2005+ is rated at 298hp on ONLY 6mt. 5at AND 6mts from pre 05 are rated at 280.

I know S means sport, so it only adds horsepower? nothing else?

S badge, doesn't add horsepower dude.

That's some ricer who stuck an S badge on his car, there was never a G35S made. Unless it was a 2007 G35S sedan. (only 07 because 08 turns into a G37)

The only G coupe to ever have an S, was the G37S(08+)

You don't get more HP from the "S" it's more like a package/options but same engine..

There's a lot of sad **** in Toronto haha. If it has a "red" S badge at least they stuck to an infiniti emblem but if it's chrome. RUN, that means it's from a Corolla hahaha

starting in 05 there were a few extraordinary circumstances where the factory had fortunately screwed up on the VQ35 engine and some were somehow metentically mutated to a new form of VQ35 engines designated G35S (I believe in the Coupe Series only) and thus were introduced to the mass at a very special offering to those who wanted superior vehicular powerplant in the average form of a G35 coupe,

these were more expensive and also more costly to maintain as well so not too many people could handle this new responsibility and thus opted for the regular G35 leaving many of the Superior!!! behind doors of the factory only to reemerge later on even after the advent of their newer siblings the G37...

not much is known about the G35S... only that some claim they are even more powerful than the G37 and rivaling their distant cousins the GTR...
DOMO
