the only thing that appeals me from the 07 sedan is the inetrior. That is where it ends.

I like everything about the 07 except the rear quarter panels. I hate how they put the lazy crease at the end of the wheel well.
I had an 07 loaner for a few weeks and my 06 seats seem to be more comfortable.

The keyless is great but the tack and speedo switch isn't cool. Still need better seats the sport seats are sweet looking but the stock seats are that great. Next the power over my 04 WOW would have been better if not awd
Haha, I live in wayzata dude... Go MN!

I had an 07 loaner the other day and will tomorrow again. I like the high revving engine, the keyless ignition, and the instrument panel...

Wasn't impressed with the non Bose stereo... Wasn't too surprised about that. For some reason the newer car felt like the engine was smaller... Must be better isolated from the car in newer models

I am starting to like the 07's more and more every day. I hope I don't go nuts and part out my car to get one.

If you break down to get something new, it should be the GT-R. It has 4 seats

I know how the folks who don't like the new G feel. On my Max, I had an '03 and really didn't like the new body style. Too fat and heavy looking, I liked mine.

It actually grew on me over time though, and now I kinda like them. I'd guess for at least some people it's a similar reaction, you bought because you liked the previous body style. Nothing wrong with that.

I think the 07 was a good evolution of the 1st gen it's just enough progression from the 1st gen to the 2nd gen with out making the 1st gen look outdated. That helps keep our resale value from plummeting that's what happened when I had a 2001 altima and the 2002 altima came out same for the 1st gen IS300 and the current IS, 1st gen GS300 and 2nd gen GS300/4X0 I'm thanking the Infiniti designers every time I pull up next to a 2nd gen G35

I had the '07 Journey loaner from yesterday. Impressed with the keyless feature, info window on the center console (though it could easily be a driver distraction), layout of steering wheel controls and the leather seats. The '07 stock brakes seem to take a stronger bite than the stock ones on the '03-'04.

Only thing I didn't like was the delay in getting into 1st gear. Out of curiosity I checked the oil on the dipstick and found the oil to be blackish and very dirty. Seems like the dealer never once bothered to change the oil on this loaner after 12,XXX miles.

i have a loaner right now and i like the extra power , the seats feel more comfy than my 03.5 ..

I dont like how the interior almost mimics that of the 3 series bimmer. The plastic type steering wheeel and window switches with that VW scratch imperfection

I think the 03-06 are the best Gs . I did like that you can actualy lower the radio from the drivers side , cool dual climate feature.
