New Owner - Quick questions about 2003 Model G35 Coupe
Just bought a user 2003 G35 6MT with 38000 original miles on it.
I cannot seem to find the exact trims that were available of the original sales pamphlet.
What my car DOES have:
-Leather interior
-18" rims
-rear spoiler
-heated seats
-power sunroof
-Bose with CD changer
-NO NAVIGATION
-Brembo brakes
What other options were available for 2003? Something I'm missing or a higher model for that year?
Thank you in advance

The only "packages" per say for that year were the "standard" coupe, "g35 coupe leather", "G35 coupe leather 6MT" package, "Premuim" package, "Aero" package and the "Performance Tire and Wheel" package.
If your car is a 6MT, it automatically comes with the non-negotiable "Performance Tire and Wheel" package (18" rims and Michilin PilotSport tires which have surely been replaced by something else now), limited slip differential, leather seats, a few extra "titanium" tinted interior trim pieces, and Brembo brakes (everything from the "G35 coupe leather" package and then some).
The "Premium" package included the Bose sound system with a built-in 6-CD head unit and 8 speakers, heated leather seats, a sunroof, dual zone climate control, and the Home-link auto-dimming rear-view mirror.
The "Aero" package includes the rear spoiler and underbody diffusers that are supposed to make the car have zero-lift. You could also add on the spoiler separately without getting the aero package if I remember correctly.
There were other optional things that they could have gotten on that car that are not in the realm of packages but are individual add-ons. Optional add-ons that I can remember are the Navigation system, satellite radio, sunroof, splash guards (which actually make the car look a lot better in my opinion), a front lip (i'm not 100% sure that this was a new-car option but it was definitely sold by Inifiniti as an OEM part when these cars were new), a carpeted trunk mat and a luggage net for the trunk (this may have been labeled as the "cargo and convenience package"), all-season floor mats, and exterior door door guard moulding (makes the car look terrible). Infiniti also sold an OEM pedal kit that includes metal-looking covers for all 3 pedals but I don't think you could buy this with the car when it was new unless you just bought it and had them put it on before you took delivery.
There were a few oddball cars out there that people had custom ordered too with weird combos like a 6MT but no sunroof, and some early ones even could be had without leather seats although I've never seen one personally with cloth.
I still have my sales book that I got from my dealer when I was looking at the car and contemplating it against the 350Z (have one for the 350Z too!), both in a plastic protector... LOL.
That's pretty sweet that you found an '03 with such low mileage. What kind of condition is the body in and how much did you pay for that (if you don't mind my asking)?

Again, welcome to Driver and enjoy the ride...Gary
Holy cow...that is CLEAN. Especially the engine bay. I've found the G to accumulate a lot of dirt and grime in then engine bay. Yours looks brand new. What a great blank slate to start from.
Is there any part of this car that is worn or in need of replacement?
The wheel well gap and the tuck of the wheels arw the only two things that lacked in the oem car. Good thing that both of those are easily remedied. In fact, I've got a set of springs with pics for sale in the suspension forum right now!
