G35 Coupe very impressive

My friend recently bought a G35 Coupe. (Remember the poll I did about a week ago? He ended up buying G35 Coupe w/Navi & Rear bodykit & spoiler & 18" wheels) He let me drove his car from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles...oh man...what a ride..0-100 mph feels like it only took 5 sec.!!(amazing how fast this car was)
such a nice car.
GOOD: Very Fast!! Great Handling, Awsome Brake. You get many attetion from the other drivers on the road.
BAD: Navigation SUX compare to our TSX. (Not a touch screen!!)
$42000!!!???too much...


BAD INTERIOR

GOOD INTERIOR

EXCELLENT INTERIOR

IS300 & TSX

Funny thing is..that my friend had his IS300 for about eight months now...and he didn't know he had fog light...when I turned on his fog light he was screaming like a girl. I wonder what he was thinking about the two lights below the head lights was for...
He doesn't deserve this car!!!!j/k

I like the G35 coupe but that pop-up Nav screen is tacky IMO.

Oh and another funny thing...one day I was looking at our apartment parking lot and feels like some kind of Autoshow. We have G35 Coupe, Lexus IS300, Mazda Rx-8, Acura TSX & CL & RSX, Lincoln Aviator, Honda Accord Coupe, BMW 330 CI.....all in BLACK. All of my friends drive BLACK car!!( Including myself) hmmm.....May be we Korean loves Black car? dunno...
I'm trying to take picture with everybody's rides in it, but they are not cooperating!! I guess I have to take one at a time and Photochop'em all.

I love the G35 coupe!! It's the luxury Z. So, Infiniti's navi system sucks compared to Acura's? Two comments: I noticed that the Tsx is taller than the G35 coupe? Also, you guys in CA can drive w/o a front license plate? That's better than in IL where it's illegal to not have a front license plate. You CA guys are lucky

I just can't get over the front end. I bloody well love the rest of the car until those lights and grille come into view. Sorry.

42k!? man that's a lot w/ a 32k MSRP base. I couldn't even make a 42k G35C on their website.

I like that car a lot, but man is the 350z/G35 played out here in Northern VA. Definately a perk for the TSX is having a ultra rare car.

In all truth, the 350Z is...how do I say this?...umm...

OK...I liked the 350Z when I first saw it. My pal, who works in the same complex as I, got one pretty quick.
For a few months, it looked cool and I even imagined it to be a contender in my car shopping adventure.
Then, it's looks faded from my admiring glance. It started growing on me in the opposite direction. The rear now looked frumpy and uninspiring. The square front air dam now looked kinda ghey.
I drove it and the death sentence was final. I didn't like the clutch's take up(LONG), the shifter felt rubbery, and the interior quality wasn't what I'd been enjoying in my car. The lights are OK though.

The G35 is 6/8ths bloody nice! I love the rear, the wheels, the sides and the interior seemed cool at the auto show. You know the rest. I'm obviously in the minority, judging from the numbers of them I see on my local roads.

Yo Min,

we do have to have the front license plate, and yes TSX is taller than G35. Hate to say this, but I think G35 "Coupe" is alot better than our TSX. (oh ye...$12000 more...)
