New Owner Here - '07 G35x Premium
Damn! I love this car! 
Just bought it about 2.5 hours ago & man was the drive hope enjoyable
I got it for $400 over invoice - Premium, auto tranny, cargo net + free all-weather mats
I traded an '04 WRX auto with about $52k miles.
I gotta give a shout out to Anthony Saldana @ Infiniti of Lisle, IL where I bought the car - easiest most painless car purchase I ever made If you're in the Chicago area & want an Infiniti, go see Tony. He's a straight shooter & extremely easy to work with. He knows how it's done. I was fully pre-pared to go in there to do battle, they gave me exactly what I wanted & a good price for my trade.
What a difference from the WRX! It's funny, driving home from the dealer, I was accellerating too hard off the line & the car was leaping of the line It's been a while since I've had a car with this much power. I used to be strictly into sports cars when I was younger, but now that I'm older (40), I've come to appreciate a certain amount of luxury, space, & functionality in my cars. This is my 1st Nissan product (always thought it would be a 350Z) and hope I have it for a LOOOOOOONG time!
My previous rides in order:
- '89 Subaru XT GL
- '96 Mustang GT
- '98 Camaro Z28
- '01 Eclipse GT
- '99 Corvette
- '03 Accord Coupe (Boooooorrrrrring!)
- '01 Mustang GT
- '04 WRX
BTW, this is a great forum & I learned lost of useful info lurking here for about 2 months before I decided to "join the club" today.
Can't wait to go to the movies tomorrow - the drive there & back will be the best part

Thanks GarnetCanuck, you've got a great looking ride with that color. Dealer I bought from had 1 of those (they're kind of rare in Red around Chicago) but I didn't want to draw even more attention to myself (I tend to drive pretty aggressively sometimes).

Vlad, did Infiniti/Lisle seem able to get their hands on alternate inventory?
They say they are the largest Infiniti dealer in the midwest, but they don't have a single G35x with Tech. Also, their high end cars are only available in black it seems...
Looking to buy a G35x this week, but want Premium/Nav/Tech. From checking online inventories, there are only 2 within 100 miles of Chicago (and none in st louis).
Of course, those 2 are not the colors I want
Even if I find it, have a bad feeling the dealer will try to rake me over the coals, as they are scarce.
I travel all over the country for work, so am willing to drive it back, but there are limits to how far I'll drive
