Hey all....I am a newbie and after many weeks of research and test drives (Acura TL, preowned 02 Audi S4), I am going to be leasing an 05 G35x. I would love a couple, but since it doesn't come with AWD and I live on Long Island, I need the AWD in the sedan. Right now, the lease offer stands at:

$479/month
$3000 down
20,000 miles/year
Premium Package
Nav System

They claim it is only $500 above invoice, but after looking at some of the deals on here, I might not be getting the best deal. I am not sure of what color I want, but I would love to have the black interior cause it is so much easier to keep clean. I am selling my Mustang GT and I must say, the G35x has just as much kick as my 'Stang. The test drive was a blast!

Just a couple of questions:

1. I saw a thread on installing the Sirius Sat Anntenna and I want to know if you need the tuner and antenna or is the tuner already in the car??
2. Where can I get a lip spoiler?? I know there is an aftermarket for this car and I love the look of the lip spoiler. I know the car is leased and I shouldn't be touching it, but I can't resist.

I think that is it for now. I will keep you all posted on the car and when I am going to get it.

 

congrats m8ty, you picked a fine girl there, shell keep u interested alot longer then any other girls you'hv been with im sure. jk put some pics up when u decide wich colors.

 

1) You can get it put in at the dealer, but it's cheaper to buy it and install it yourself, and easy. Tons of articles on it on the boards here, just do a search for install and sattelite.

2) Here you go. I am sure there are other options, but this one comes to mind.

Congrats, btw

 

I think $500 over is pretty good and fair. To do better, the market in your area would have to be pretty competitive.

 

congrats, u'll be happy with it

 

Another questions for all you G35 wizards:

I know the X model has the black rocker panels standard, but today I saw one (not sure what year) with color matched rocker panels, like they were part of the aero kit that isn't available with the X model (or so Infiniti says). What's the deal???

 

The '05 X has the body color rocker panels. The 04's did not.

 

Ok, but another thing I noticed at Inifinit of Massapequa (Long Island, NY) is that there floor models are MY '04, but the sticker says 05....something there isn't right. I am going back to this dealer one last time tomorrow to do one final look over of the car, test drive it one more time, and finally sign the lease agreement or totally walk away. I'd put my money on the signing though. The rocker panel thing isn't a deal breaker.....I just thought it would be nice for them to do that.

 

Open the drivers side door panel and inside will tell you the year and month made, great choice, we love ours.
