Why such a delay for 07 G35 launch?

Infiniti website says "Fall 2006" and others show November 2006. Which is correct? Obviously November is NOT considered as fall, more like winter 2006.

All car magazines have done with their full in-house test on the new G35 and it is very unusual to introduce a new car about 3 months AFTER its full road test on the magazines.

Why such a delay?

Do you think there will be special "preview" 07 G35 in the dealers soon?

As far as I'm concerned, G35 is the ONLY car in its class with real 3-person rear seat. IS350's rear seat is for kids or extremely short adults only. 330i has bulging backs on its rear seats due to the rear wheel arc, so it pushes the rear passengers to the center. You'll know what I mean once you sit in 330i back seats. You can sit little away from the rear door to avoid the wheel arc but then you'll have awkward seat belt position.

November is correct. I have heard November for quite some time now so I don't think there really is any delay.

Technically, November is still considered fall since winter doesn't start until Dec 21st.

Strange, I was able to put an order on my 07 before prices are released. Yes, with the Sport package has larger tires than the regular G35 and G35x. You will get the larger tires in the Sport package with the 5AT as well. Btw, you get 18" wheels with the Sport package and 17" on all other packages.

Sorry for the thread hijack luxman.
