CL-S trade for G35 sedan?

After getting my 30K service Friday I looped back around to the Infiniti dealer to see if they had a coupe, only to look at one w/ no intention of trading. Only one there was already bought, did not have one to test drive and only several remaining on their future allotment for a $1000 deposit, refundable after you test drive one if you change your mind.

I did however check out the sedan, and after sitting in it and driving it, may have had a change of heart. I liked the firmer suspension and RWD, my future position within the next year now includes a car allowance instead of a company car, and 4 doors would be more practical than two when entertaining clients (currently have a big Crown Vic for travel to job sites.)

Considering the potential for problems w/ the slushbox and nagging squeaks and rattles from the dash & sunroof, is this a viable option considering the potential for future problems & depreciation? Thoughts?

youre not going to find much love for the G35 sedan around here, i think its the overall consensus that the interior on both the sedan and coupe G35 suck major ass.....i dont think anyone here has spoken up and said they liked it. honestly, if you are looking into a 4 door.....wait and see what Acura does this spring with the 2004 TL...the 2004 TL SHOULD be on the autoshow circuit this coming season....so that should be something to look at for sure.

You have to do what you feel is right. Take a piece of paper and draw a line down the center. On the left side, write pros...and the left side write cons. Start to list what you feel about the car. Now do the same with your CL or any other car you want to buy. Then compare and make the decision. Easy!

I rode in both the G35 and the G35c and I liked the coupe a lot more.

Though, for the money, I'd buy a TL-S first.

I'd wait a year or two to see what else comes out. PLus it will give Nissan time to work out any bugs. If that's what you go with.

I would wait to see what else is going to come out. I wouldn't settle for that goofy looking luxo altima.


I agree with you on the Acura Bullshit. It's ridiculous.
