Subtle is the name of the game when it comes to a refresh. This reminds me of the Lexus SC300/400 refresh, I believe it was the 97 year. Most people won't notice the changes, but if you look closely you'll notice a more agressive front bumper and altered tailights that make the car look newer.

The 06 G will have the same effect. It doesnt look like a big deal now (just based on pics), but I bet when you start seeing 06 Gs flying around out there, the pre 06's will start to look dated.

The 2006 has pluses and minues, but I am happy with mine. It is funny how a lot of people complained about the 2003-5 spoiler and now after seeing the 2006 spoiler, everyone wants the ironing board back! Hahahaa. I think something in between the these two spoilers in terms of size would be perfect. Overall, the changes are minor.

I'm right again . . . .

I'm waiting for a MAJOR redesign (if it even happens), and even if it does happen it probabliy wont be til 2007 or 2008.
Looks like I was right:



The Next Infiniti G35? New Coupe Concept to Make Debut at Detroit's Auto Show
Date posted: 11-10-2005

DETROIT — Infiniti will show off a "major redesign" of the 2007 G35 sedan at the New York auto show and a concept coupe at January's Detroit auto show, Inside Line has learned.

The Japan-designed concept coupe, which company insiders are simply calling the "Infiniti concept," may hint at the 2007 G35 coupe. A source said the coupe concept would not have a V8 engine.

The midsize G35 is considered a brand-defining product for Infiniti, competing as it does against such global stalwarts as the BMW 5 Series.

Infiniti is expected to debut a face-lifted Quest minivan at the Chicago auto show.

What this means to you: Infiniti's G35 lineup gets a major makeover for 2007, and you may be looking at it soon.

I wouldn't trade my 04 6MT for anything (except a 911) the 06 isn't all that IMHO, I do LOVE the headlights, and I've always liked the interior in the 05/06 better but, still wouldn't trade. I almost bought an 05 6MT but they didn't have my favorite part...the Brembos.

It's the same car with better head lights and a fancy key.

the 06 is better. They just made it better, they didnt change the body. I really love the bixenons. The spoiler is iffy, either u love it or you dont. But overall, 06 is good, nothing bad about it

They should have vented the hood or added side vents or something useful to increase the performance of the car.


..... why would vents on the hood or side increase the performance of the car?
