Semi-automatic

Is the G35 capable of semi-automatic features? ie. does it come with paddle shifters, or with the automatic tranny, does it come so that you can change it to semi automatic mode and shift up and down?

^+1, the G has a manumatic mode that alllows you to change the gears. You can also add aftermarket paddle shifters if you really want them.

yup, to what's been posted and also will say to drive manu-matic aggressively you'll need a TransGo valve-body upgrade.

The car doesn't let you up-shift if it feels it's unnecessary... I mean, yes, you can downshift to 2nd from 5th , but the car won't let you go to 5th gear if you're not even going 30mph.
