Hey guys,
I posted about this car a while back and now that I've been learning more about Gs, I need some noob clarification. The previous owner made some changes to my car, but there is no mod list. Nothing serious was done (the engine is stock) but the wheels were different, a different shift ****, small stuff like that. Anyway, I just recently came to know there are two different versions of the 2006 G35: sport and non-sport. Can you take a look at pictures of my car and let me know which version mine is? Again, the dealer didnt specify...either way I'm 100% happy with this car its all I dreamed of. Side note: the steering wheel does not say "sport" like I've seen, so I'm assuming its non-sport...I just saw a thread that identified sports vs non-sport by the front bumpers so I was looking for some educated minds to take a look. --

 

What does the vin say? That would tell you to.

 

VIN lookup sites say 2006 Infiniti G35 -- I guess it would state explicitly Sport?
EDIT: figured it out, Base Coupe
Thanks, sorry for the garbage thread, enjoy the pics.

 

Is it manual?

 

Yep its 6MT, my first manual car. I love the way it feels, though the gearing is much shorter than I was expecting. The only short term modifications I plan on making are a new shift **** and a lighter flywheel because it revs sluggishly compared to my old subaru

 

If its 6mt then its a sport base (no premium package most likely). Comes with different front bumper and side skirts, VLSD, orange stitch on steering wheel, Rev-up motor, etc.

 

Nice lookin coupe anxiOus! How many miles on her clock, were you able to get any maintance records at purchase? Small changes like quality synthetic oil (AMSOIL) will help the revs. Lightweight aluminum flywheel will help the revs, downside is the flipin noise they make. Enjoy the ride....

Thanks guys. And yea I'm looking into the AWT clutch/flywheel combo ... ps I do believe it has the rev-up engine as my redline is 7k on the tach ..? The car has 48,000 miles

 

lol no that is not why

 

That's definitely a sport front bumper, but that rear trunk lip thing isn't OEM. 6MTs can come with either the aero package or without. The aero versions have the smiley front bumper, whereas the ones without have more of a frown lol. Mine's an '06 6MT without the aero package.

And as far as I know, the 6MTs came with the orange stitching on the steering wheel. That's probably the only difference between non-6MTs and 6MTs. And yeah you have the Rev-Up.

 

I have an 06' Coupe 5AT.

I have the window sticker still which shows:

Aero Package 550.00
Rear Spoiler & diffusers

Sport-Tuned Suspension Package 1,600.00

19" forged,tires etc
VLSD
Sport Front bumper & side sills
Aluminum Pedals
Perf. Leather/orange stitching on steering wheel

Not sure if this is just a AT option or not but it was available on the 06'
