Trunk Space?

I'm thinking of picking up a used G35 coupe before this summer. I'm currently driving a 2005 WRX.
My main concern is if I'll be able to fit a snowboard in the trunk or back seat. (155)
I've heard 2 sets of golf clubs will fit in the trunk...is this true?
Will the back seats fold down? What about a trunk pass through?

Thanks in advance!

I can fit two sets of clubs in my trunk. It's a tight fit and the bags are of medium size. Meaning they have those bulgy pockets all over the place. I haven't actually tried to get a snowboard in the trunk yet, but if the rear seats would fold all the way down you just might make it.

I just bought a used '05 coupe, and the snowboard issue was first on my mind. With a bit of reading around, I found out that you can definitely fit two snowboards in there with the back seat folded down (provided your snowboard isn't like 12 feet long).

Mind you - I haven't actually tested this out, but I plan to as soon as my car arrives...

The G coupe has been my only car for the past 4 years, so I've had to get a lot out of it, and I did. I can fit:

a 7.5' fishing rod in it
two pairs of skis
studs for finishing my basement
a ladder
a fat chick (she scratched my door handle though)
3 wheels and tires
a chiminea
a porch table

Bottom line is, believe it or not, you can put a lot in there, it is not so much the trunk space, but the space when the back seat is down.

Not a problem, with the seats folded down there is quite a bit of room. Board is a 160.

There's definitely room for snowboards if you lower the back seats.. last time I didn't even lower it, I just put it in the back seat with the front over where you shift and my friend was holding it I also fit 4 tires in there

Thanks for all the replies!!! This was pretty much my last concern in my quest to get a G.
My boss had a G, and told me the seats didn't fold down...guess he's a n00b

Wow your boss is dumb then BTW it's a little thing you pull that is located in the trunk, located on the top when you open it a little to the left if I remember correctly.

Creating more trunk space ---- has anyone though of replacing the trunk lining with lining that would allow for more trunk space??? I looked under the lining and there's a ton of open space before you actually get to any wires or components.
