I'd get the 06 just to have an 06 model.

which ever one is the cheapest. There are not enough differences to stray me one way or the other.

^ you like that new front bumper and new back spoiler??? If you do, then yeah get the 06. If I could choose now, I would get the 05 only because of the ugly front and standard spoiler on 6MTs =(

Not worth waiting until the 6MT comes out or the price hike (which I know we are not discussing here). I didn't want the wing anyway so that's not really doing anything for me. I don't like the front coming up in the middle like that and think the old bumper with a lip looks much better. Headlights like everyone said can be retro-fitted. No intelligent key? WTF? As far as bluetooth I can live with or without it. Think I'm gonna save a few thousand bucks for my shoes and go "old school" with the 05.
I agree with you... god damn front bumper is ugly.

besides the fact that the air inlets are a little smaller, what's the difference? is the front bumper a little higher off the ground?

^ take a good look at the side-by-side comparison... you can see that there is a gap in the middle which makes the bumper look higher and also... the air inlets seem to be upsidown. Where the 05's look mean, the 06's look cute and happy.

The inlets are alright, I don't like the integrated lip. It's true, it makes it look all happy. At least the 03-05 front lip was something the average person could notice.

No...if you are referring to the side by side comparison, the one image is photographed at a slightly higher angle...they look about the same...

Posted this in the other 06 thread..will post here too...

Figured out how to view the colour hi-res images...you have to use:
http://www.infinitinews.com/multimed...35coupe_05.jpg

The link has a u in the word colour making it an invalid path...
just replace the end with a new number... ie:
/06_g35coupe_06.jpg
/06_g35coupe_07.jpg

These are huge pics...3000 pixels wide each...
