G35 is the worst car to smoke in

yes im a smoker who smokes in my G all the time,

i gotta say they did not design the car around smokers, every night when i come home theres ash everywhere all over the back seat on the floor,
and whats really annoying it always gets on that rubber part on the door where the windows are held in place...
then when it rains i just barely crack the window and water rushes in all over the place like a mini tidal wave.

just thought id share that.

Perhaps you're not smoking properly in the G. I don't smoke in the G but I know a couple who do and when they ash, they ash it outside the window a little behind where the window edge stops. You won't have ash in the backseat if you do it that way.

I honestly don't care too much about how the ash flies around the car... that's why you clean your car. But I do hate how water comes in the car so easily when it rains... what options for window visors do we have for this car? I don't like the cheap WeatherTech ones... they look fugly...

On a freeway (or 35+) turn on your windshield washers for a sec or two, that one always gets my door wet when I forget that my window is open.

Uh... yea...

When you crack open the front window of the sedans either when it's raining or when your car is wet, water will drip down right above the side mirrors. I can't even clean my windshield with my windows open without water getting inside.

so true.. when it rains, i crack the passenger side window open, and use the ash tray

i started blowing out the ash through sunroof, but one time, my ex made a nice cigarette burn on the visor, since then i only used the troublesome(?) conventional way...

You just need one of those ash cups you see in the car washes. It fits in the cup holder and then you won't have to open the window and spray the ashes all over the cabin. All you'll need to do is open the sun roof from the back.

I dont think they design any cars around smokers.

Ash out the sunroof. It works. Just dont burn your head liner.

open your moonroof and raise the cig up there quickly, works like a charm!

that won't work if you don't have a moonroof and/or it's raining lol

the best smoking you can do is modding your ride and finding a sti or a evo to take out.
