2003 Infiniti G35

Pros: Low price, excellent handling, performance, braking, features, interior room, safety
Cons: Slow CD changer, windshield reflections from instruments, poor speakers and even worse with Bose, MPG

I have previously been looking on BMW 3 and 5-series cars as a future choice for transportation. Then I heard that the Nissan Skyline would be introduced to the US market as an Infiniti G35 with a 3.5-liter V6... Recently, there’s been a lot of ...

Pros: Engine power at high RPM, balanced chassis, rear seat room, low price
Cons: Styling and chassis could use more personality, rear seats don't fold

Infiniti’s first entry-lux sedan, the G20, never sold well. Though widely recognized as among the best handling front-wheel-drive sedans, it was also widely criticized for a lack of power. For 2003, Infiniti fixes this problem by making a ...

Pros: Great power, distinctive styling, great handling
Cons: Some questionable interior bits, less-than-perfect ergonomics, hard to read gauges

If you read my reviews, you'll know just how much I enjoyed driving the Nissan 350Z. However it does have one problem in that it only seats two. While that's great for a sportscar, what if you're not in the position to purchase a sportscar? You've got...

Pros: Power, rear drive, front styling.
Cons: Rear styling, no fold down rear seat, spartan interior. Disappointing color choices.

I recently test drove the G-35 along with the Infiniti I-35 when car buying, but ended up buying the I-35. Still, the G-35 was impressive overall.

The rear drive G-35 appeals to my "sportier" side, as I have had several front drivers lately...

Pros: Price, quality, engine, rear legroom, VDC is excellent.
Cons: Trunk liner problem, No fold down rear seats, can't raise/lower passenger seat, no goodwill

This review has once again been updated to reflect my ongoing ownership experience with the G35. Last Update: November 9, 2004 after 31 months and 40000 miles. November 9, 2004 Update: I feel compelled to write this update, not just to give ...

Pros: Engine, Handling
Cons: Features, Size, Interior Layout

I recently took a dusk test drive in the new 2003 Infiniti G35. In some respects this was a great car, in others I was less than unimpressed. If you are under 6' and want a sporty car with little on the inside, perhaps this is the car for you. If you are...

Pros: Unique styling. No interior wood! Real sports car performance, handling and braking. Rear seat room
Cons: $900 Bose stereo. Sports suspension is rough at low-speeds. Infiniti leasing. No fold-down rear seats

I decided to lease my wife a new car for an anniversary present this year. In my typical over-research way, I set out to find the perfect sports-sedan for our family. I already have a 4-Runner, so extensive room is not a requirement. in fact, I was...

Pros: Power, handling, comfort...it's a fun car to drive!
Cons: Lack of options and sparseness of interior on the base model

I purchased a G35 coupe back in the summer of 2002, not too long after the vehicle was introduced. This is my second Infiniti (my first being a QX-4), and the sixth Infiniti in my family. Needless to say, we have always been impressed with the quality ...

Pros: Engine, Styling, Ride, Stereo, Price
Cons: Rear Styling, Non Fold Rear Seats

Preface
The following is my account of what I got to experience behind the wheel of the new 2003 Infiniti G35 4 door sedan on a recent test drive. I had just the day before driven the new Mazda Mazda6 of which I had every intention of buying after...

Pros: Given the price, the features and performance can’t be beat by any BMW or Lexus.
Cons: Interior material & aluminum finish, exterior rear styling.

First, a disclosure: I bought a G35 sedan for my wife and very soon traded it in for an Acura RL. Th ...

Pros: Superb Engine, BMW class handling, powerful brakes
Cons: Poor noise insulation, rear styling takes getting used to

I just purchased a 2003 G35 for $30,600. For that price, BMW, Mercedes and Lexus give you either a supercharged four cylinder or a wimpy six cylinder. There are only two other four doors that are as fun to drive as the G35: the Subaru WRX and the BMW...

Pros: Well balanced, with just enough power
Cons: Leather and interior trim leaves something to be desired

Even though I consider myself somewhat of a "car guy" I was not aware that Infiniti was bringing the ...

Pros: 260hp with a reasonable price, good balance of sport and sedan
Cons: low quality interior materials, not worth the money w/ similar models available

For the 2003 model year, Infiniti has decided to replace its overpriced, underpowered G20 with the all new G35. That being said, the G35 is a totally new model and shares nothing with the discontinued G20. The G35 was designed to compete with the...

Pros: 0-60 in 5.9, excellent handling, Infiniti service commitment, 0-60 in 5.9
Cons: Wild rear end - conservative front end, Bose sound system upsets

"Where Are The Cars We Were Promised?" That's the way Infiniti is marketing its new G35, Q45, FX45, and M45. I don't personally think that the G35 fits into that commercial very well... it really doesn't do very much that other premium luxury sedans do....

Pros: Sporty handling and great engine
Cons: New release, so you'll pay sticker or close... interior design not for everyone

I've never been too big a fan of Infiniti's offerings. Sure, the first Q45 and J30 were intriguing cars, but I was too young to even be in the car market. Their models in recent years however haven't interested me as much, except for the seemingly...
