No rattles here- '04 Coupe 6MT with Tein H-Tech for 350Z springs. 19,000 miles. I do get to drive on Florida roads in warm weather, which helps. It seems owners who live in cold weather areas get more rattles, from what I've read.

Nice to hear another person that is rattle free. I know that others do experience rattles in their G, however others seem to think it is uttlerly impossible for a G35 to be rattle free.

Unfortunately pursuing a replacement vehicle is the least path of resistance here, so I'll have to play w/those cards for now – but only for now. I do however find it ironic that you own vehicles that do not offer Bose systems. If that isn't the ultimate expression of your BS I'm not sure what is.

Nevertheless, I cannot wait to critique this audio system
I've NEVER heard a factory car audio system that is worth a damn. The ONLY way for high quality sound is installation of an aftermarket system. Here is what I'm putting into my Coupe:

Kenwood eXcelon 25th Anniversary XXV-01D head unit
Sony XES M-3 amplifer (rare classic from mid-90's) 250W x 2 @ 2 ohms
Kenwood eXcelon KAC-X812D amplifier (400W x 1 @ 4 ohms)
4080 subwoofer enclosure
JL Audio ZR650-Csi component speakers (2 sets for front soundstage)
JL Audio 10W6v2 subwoofer
Dynamat Xtreme everywhere

This system will sound amazing! All factory systems suck. Philip Glass rules.

Yeah, I'm sure there are a lot of rattles out there and I'm sure I'll get some sooner or later. A few rattles sure beats the kinds of problems that befall a lot of other cars. I would never buy a car that is not made in Japan.
