Infiniti G35 - Guide to the Infiniti G35

The Infiniti G35 is a luxury sports sedan that was first introduced in 2003.  The G35 is available in two-door coupe and four-door sedan models with several different transmission options depending on the year.  The 2006 models with automatic transmissions may produce up to 280 horsepower, and the manual transmission may produce up to 298 horsepower.

The Infiniti G35 has been praised by drivers, critics, and sports car enthusiasts alike.   In 2003, the G35 from Infiniti was Motor Trend "Car of the Year."  This is one of the highest accolades any car and manufacturer can receive from the auto industry.  The G35 was also nominated for "North American Car of the Year," and was listed by Car and Driver Magazine as one of the top ten cars of 2003.

One of key features of the G35 is the available all-wheel drive on the automatic transmission models.  The all-wheel drive feature may help to improve a car's handling on the road, as well as the grip of the tires during inclement conditions.  The Aisin-Warner system shifts the power to the wheels with the most traction for added control.

The Infiniti G35 may be the alternative you're looking for in a sports luxury car without the high cost.  Critics have compared the performance to that of the Lexus IS, Mercedes C-Class, Audi A4, BMW 3-Series, and the Volvo S60.    The 2007 G35 may achieve even higher horsepower rates, so look out for the next generation in the next couple of years.
