Quick! G35C filled the garage with smoke!!!
After a litlle "spirited" driving on the way home from work, I pulled in the garage. A few minutes later, smelled something burning. I checked the house and found nothing. Opened the garage and it was filled with smoke. I just had the oil changed about 350 miles ago. Any ideas?

Infinit changed it. The smoke was maybe gray? Smelled almost like burning rubber (similar to when you run over something with the vacum )

a clutch will smoke, but it also may be the brakes if you were doing some serious driving.

No, the sedan does, the Coupe doesn't. The 04 coupe has tire pressure monitors and it may have memory seats...I'm not sure. I can live without Memory seats...I can't live without torque. :o
