hey guys -

I did get the car aligned. It is now "within specifications." As I mentinoed before, I also have two new front tires on it.

It still drifts to the right! I've taken it to several mechanics, and none of them have any answers for me. The one thing one mechanic said you could do is flip the front tires (i.e., put the right tire on the left side, the left tire on the right side).

I also test drove another G35 with similar number of miles and it also did this. I honestly think at this point it's just a poorly designed car - there's a defect in the way the car was engineered.

I bought my G 7/1/09 and noticed right away my car has a slight pull to the left. I bought it from Carmax so I brought it back to them (all work is free within the first 30 days) and they checked my alignment and said the only thing they could find was one tire being over/under pressure of which they fixed. It still pulls. Tires are brand new too.

beats me man, your numbers look good and i don't think that small bit of cross camber should make you drift to the left as much as you are
