I looove the G35c..love it love it love it..
we know. having owned one myself for a year, however, i don't. it's a beautiful car, and magazine racers and internet voyeurs will sing its praises till the second coming - and i'm sure most owners who aren't stuck with a lemon and a crappy dealer will probably echo those sentiments. however, my situation was not all roses and happiness. even if you take away the fact that mine was a lemon, we're still left with the fact that the only dealer here has a customer service satisfaction index just beyond toilet-worthiness. there is no way i'd buy another car from that dealer - or one that has to be serviced and warrantied there. hump your buddy's coupe all you like, but we're not about to set another foot on our infiniti dealer's lot.

lucky except for the brake dust and the susceptibility to chipping that the brembo calipers have when in the not-so-careful hands of infiniti techs or tire jockeys. speaking from experience, since mine had several nice chips in the gold powdercoat courtesy of the bumbling monkeys at crown infiniti.
[sorry for the slightly embittered tone here - but what should have been an incredible car to own was soured by a year's worth of increasingly frustrating situations with and caused by the dealer and by inherent assembly problems with *my* coupe.]
