"- When seen from rear 03/04 sedans might be confused for (swallowing hard) new Toyota Avalon."

Unfortunately, no one will make this mistake...the Avalon has dual exhaust...

 

Maybe if you've been drinking or are otherwise visually impaired!

 

DAMNNNNNNNNNNNNNN, well my parents 04 civic ex has 25k on it n they got it in jan, so lol.. 10k is nuttin... lol... u must either travel alot or have a job thats reallyyyy far away. lol. And the brake dust is not charcoal black, like i said i think im just **** about keepin the puppies shinny...

 

1)Fuel consumption
2)Touchy and squeaky brakes

 

- Lots of squeaks and rattles, even on an almost brand new 05 (I only have around 2k miles on mine).
- Cheap speakers

 

Don't complain about the squeaks and rattles, take it in and have the dealer fix them, I had one or two, and they took care of them!

 

I would have to disagree with the cheap speaker part, 500 watt Bose System, is not cheap at all. Unless u want to install the ghey aftermarket speakers.

 

No touchy brakes on the '05!

 

Bwaahaha! Sounds like sedan envy disguised assumption of coupe envy. It's basically the same car, though I have to admit the coupe handles slightly better but with bumpier ride. Trade-off, really. Do you want the sport sedan or the sport coupe? Personal taste is the biggest factor in that decision.

 

This guy took my answer. This is the crappiest dipstick ever! Thanks, Nissan. Thanks a bunch.

 

ABQ_G35, I did take the car in to get the rattles fixed, and you're right, they did. But a month later they're back again. Not very impressive for a new car.

DDRGirle, the Bose head unit is not the problem. It's the 6 1/2" door speakers in front and back. Take the door panel off and see for yourself. They're the cheapest paper speakers you can buy.

Don't get me wrong. I like my G35. But the tread is about what are the problems and what you don't like about the car and these are my issues with my 05.
