but didn't read somewhere, maybe here in AZ-Car... that Infiniti's going with the philosophy of no 4 bangers (and FWD)? And bascially leave that part to Nissan?

infiniti makes a good bang for the buck car, but still rough around the edges and the interiors are still compared to lexus or even acura.
I see you're back gilboman. It seems you only come back whenever you want to criticize a product and you've been doing that for 4 yrs. I don't like the wood interior either because they should've made it glossy, but prefer the aluminum one. Come on I know you're pro-Lexus and anti-Acura and anti-Infiniti.

Lexus is nice, but Toyota has become arrogant and this 204 hp IS250, which is a ripoff to me.

A G25 would basically be a G35 but with a small 2.5L V6, for those that don't need as much performance.

Oh, I see... cars with the "2.5" badging always confuse me like Altimas and Subaru Legacy's... and until last night I thought the IS250 was a 4 banger

Beats me, the 335 is also a 3.0L. MB does this shit too, the C230 is now a 2.5L V6 and the C280 is a 3.0L V6.

Might have to do with pricing possibly. Maybe not because the 335 doesn't start at $35K. At least the Japanese cars don't lie with their badging.

I really dont like the verticle vents on the G35's they just bother me aesthetically. The lexus is much better. The big gap to the right of the navi kinda looks empty though.
