OFFICIAL '06 G35 Changes
Below are the changes to the G35 Coupe and Sedan for the 2006 model year. According to PR representatives at NNA, official pictures will be available no sooner than mid August. We'll try to address any questions posed in this thread with direct questiones to Infiniti. As reported by G35 Editor Dave Ochenreider:
2006 Infiniti G35 Coupe & Sedan
With a major facelift in 2005, the Infiniti G35 eases into the 2006 model year with minor changes and a new exterior color: Liquid Platinum. Changes to the Sedan are few and far between with Bluetooth® hands-free phone system and satellite radio being added to its Premium packages. The Coupe, though, gets a few nice wrinkles. The two most significant additions: the Intelligent Key and Rear Active Steer (technology already in the M45) will be available as options. According to Infiniti, the “system’s electronic control unit calculates the desired vehicle dynamics from a series of sensors, including vehicle speed and steering angle, and directs the system actuator to change rear geometry by moving both rear suspension lower links.” The Premium Package, at least for the AT, now includes Intelligent Key, Bluetooth®, driver’s seat and steering wheel memory, and automatic entry/exit assist. At this point it is unclear if the Intelligent Key will be available on the 6MT Coupes. All Coupes with the Sport-Tuned Suspension Package will have a unique front fascia, side sills and newly designed optional rear spoiler (standard on 6MT models). Project-beam bi-xenon headlights, vehicle-speed-sensitive power steering, and 15.1:1 steering gear ratio are now standard as are redesigned taillights and aluminum accent rings on the door panel speakers.

In my opinion, I'm happy with my '05 and not upset at all about the changes (less the Bluetooth). The external mods they can keep. A new spoiler and new side sills, whoopie...it's not going to make or break the car. The xenon headlights would be nice, but it's still not enough to make me regret buying an '05 and it shouldn't make the rest of you either. Plus, these additions will more than likely shoot the price up another 3-6k.

Haahaha...nuthin big.
I mean that electronic steering is just gonna lead to "I purchased aftermarket wheels and now my electronic steering isn't working" threads, and driver's seat memory only?!? That sucks cause when usually someone wants to roll, I never allow more than 2 people, so I end up with three people including me, but guess what, the third gets in and out of the passanger side....so this feature is useless.
