Traded in my CL

Hey everyone, just kind of unexpectedly traded in my car on a 2003 G35 sedan. My buddy called me the other day and told me he had this at his dealership and I went and looked at it and I really liked driving it, so I drove it home!





Just thought I'd show everyone

I'm actually not sure... I honestly don't know much about the car. I know the wheels have Infiniti caps on them, but other than that I'm really not sure.

Oh wow, looks like a first generation '03 based on the trunk?

I believe so. I really don't know much about this car yet... still trying to figure out what the wheels are. It drives niiiiice though!

Thanks to everyone for the compliments!

yeah because the "infiniti" letters itself are so small compared to the later 03s and the 04-06 because they had the big font "infiniti" letters, which i think look better anyways.

congrads though dude! are you going to mod it and debadge the lettering anyways?

also, how much more powerful is the G35 compared to the CL?

I'd like to debadge the lettering, but it sits in a little indentation of each letter. Suppose i could still do it and it would just be black. I had a CLP, so it's much more powerful The other things I've noticed that I like are a much smoother shifting transmission (who would've thought) and the perforated leather (I had an 02), all 4 windows are fully auto up and down (like I said, I had an 02), 1 touch sunroof, and no more shakin when I'm brakin! Doesn't have heated seats though.

Oh, and to put an aftermarket head unit in there, the parts are around 300 bucks because the AC is on the same circuit board as the HU.

I read that on the G35 forums, but can't find where to adjust them!
