 This listing is for a 2003.5 G35 sedan 6mt with the optional nismo areo package, sports package and premium package.  The body currently has 82,XXX Miles and I have owned this vehicle for the past 9 years, I bought the car from the original owner in 2005 with around 30,000 miles. The transmission was replaced by Infiniti under warranty and currently has 30,000 miles, the issue was due to a design flaw in Nissans standard transmissions that were used in the 350z and g35 sedan and coupe. The engine was also replaced recently due to having oil consumption , the new motor currently has 35,000 miles on it with no issues and came out of a 2004 350z. The rims are OEM Rays 19'  that are lightweight forged and came as a sports package option for the coupe,  the tires have been recently replaced with less then 3,000 miles on them. New Drilled & slotted rotors and ceramic brake pads have also just been installed, with less then 1,000 miles.  The G35 also currently has coil over suspension that is both height and damping adjustable. The reason I'm selling the car is to fund and pursue a oppurntinty to train Rugby full time at a Olympic Development Academy.


Car and Driver: Say hello to the four door Z

The sedan's new six-speed is the same transmission used in the FM-platform ("front midship") coupes-the Nissan 350Z and the G35 two-door-and naturally features the same gear ratios and 3.54:1 final-drive ratio. It's no surprise, then, that it feels and operates the same. Which is fine by us, because the transmission is direct and precise and offers a satisfying mechanical feel. More important, it puts you in full control, connecting you to the car in a way an automatic can't. By removing the torque-converting middleman, you can literally get a feel for the 260-hp 3.5, with the pedals and shifter transmitting the engine's vibes, especially as the needle approaches the 6600-rpm redline. The effect is man-and-machine harmony.Unlike a buttery Acura TSX or BMW 3-series gearbox that can be sliced and diced with almost complete nonchalance, the G35's does require some deliberation when shifting, because neutral feels as if it were housing a miniature turnstile. It creates resistance when exiting one gate and entering another. It's not bad or annoying, just different. You simply have to shift as if you mean it.When you do, the rewards are swift. The sprint from 0 to 60 consumes 5.9 ticks, 0.3 quicker than the best time we managed with the automatic and only 0.4 and 0.5 second slower than a 280-hp G35 two-door and 287-hp 350Z Track, respectively. The new six-speed, 235-hp BMW 330i with Performance package (September 2003) was a bit quicker as well, hitting 60 in 5.6 seconds. The power difference among the Nissan 3.5s is even less evident in the quarter-mile times. Our test car devoured 1320 feet in 14.2 seconds-an identical time to the coupe and only a 10th behind the Z. The Bimmer needed 14.3 seconds. It seems the various outputs from the 3.5s are closer than Nissan would like us to believe.Moreover, when equipped with the manual, the G35 sedan comes standard with the sport-tuned suspension package-more aggressive damping and W-rated 215/55R-17 Goodyear Eagle GS-D summer tires-resulting in a car that handles and brakes right with the coupes. On the skidpad, the sedan, at 0.87 g, fell slightly behind the Z Track at 0.88 g and the G35 coupe's best at 0.90, but it managed to top the 330i (0.86). And keep in mind that those three cars ride on bigger 18-inch wheels and tires. Despite wearing the skinniest rubber, the G35 still shorted them all, posting a distance of 153 feet from 70 to 0 mph. That's less than the pavement needed by the Z (164), G35 coupe (157), 330i (158), and even the Lamborghini Murcielago (155) and the Saleen S7 (156). Perhaps Nissan had some leftover brakes from the R390 GT1 supercar. "Hey, Taka, what should we do with these fancy brakes?"Nissan would still like us to believe that the FM two-doors are sportier than their four-door counterpart, but now that the manual has found its rightful home in the four-door, it's more a question of "How many doors do I want?" Yes, the Z is stiffer and harder-edged than the G35s, and the two-doors sit lower to the ground than the four-door does, but the overall driving experience among the three is like describing three flavors of chocolate. Each has its subtleties and distinctiveness, but in the end, they're all still chocolate.

Infiniti previews new Q80 Inspiration concept ahead of Paris debut

Wed, 03 Sep 2014

A couple of weeks ago, Infiniti released a teaser and brief statement on a new debut it had in store for the upcoming Paris Motor Show, and the Japanese luxury marque is now giving us a bit more to chew on.
Previewed in the slightly more revealing teaser image above is the Infiniti Q80 Inspiration concept, a "low-slung, ingeniously aggressive four-passenger fastback" that hints at a new flagship model from Nissan's luxury division that the automaker says is meant "to demonstrate to the premium world just how Infiniti aims to play its part."
Sounds promising, though we'll still have to wait a bit to find out more, so watch this space. In the meantime you can scope out the brief statement in the press release below.

Infiniti QX80 to spearhead new direction for Nissan's luxury brand

Tue, Jun 28 2022

Infiniti has had a tumultuous time in the last few years. However, a new plan is under way to revive Nissan's luxury marque, and to give it some much-needed direction. Now, Infiniti chairman Peyman Kargar has detailed his plans for the first time, and revealed that the QX80 will be at the vanguard of this new push. Left to languish under former Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn's quest for market share at the cost of all else, Infiniti's lineup failed to receive the necessary updates in several hotly contested segments. In a time when the luxury brands have seen record profits, Infiniti has instead seen its sales plummet. In 2018 the brand was among the first to announce a date by which it would "go electric." That was taken by many to mean solely electric or hybrid vehicles after 2021, but that time has come and gone. Infiniti missed its own deadline for a first EV model last year, and sales have nosedived by more than 50 percent since 2019 (117,708 in U.S. sales in 2019, versus 58,553 in 2021). Part of that is due to the  pandemic and resulting semiconductor shortage that's plagued the entire industry, but there's no doubt that the brand is seldom uttered in the same breath as Mercedes, BMW, Lexus or Audi. Speaking with Automotive News, Kargar outlined a three-phase plan to get Infiniti back on its feet. The first phase, focusing on restructuring and recovery, was just completed in March. Infiniti has now turned record profits globally, Kargar said.  Phase two has now begun and will play out through March 2026. By this time next year, designers will have locked in a new corporate face to take over on all new models. Leading the charge with that identity will be a new QX80 that arrives in late 2023 or early 2024.  Kargar didn't disclose details, but called it the future flagship of the marque. It will have enhanced performance specs to distance itself from the Nissan Armada on which it is based. Infiniti hopes that the QX will be seen as a competitor against the likes of the Cadillac Escalade Lexus LX, and Range Rover. Despite riding on the same platform as the Patrol — a Land Cruiser-like body-on-frame SUV — since 2010, the QX has not fallen in sales as much as other models. Part of the rebranding also includes a unification of Infiniti's identity. Kargar spoke of a new dealership look and feel, which includes a "brand scent" for showrooms and a "sound signature" that will tie in apps, websites, and call centers.

US buyers show little interest in big hybrids

Sat, May 10 2014

The idea of producing large, luxury-vehicle hybrids is turning into a "what were they thinking?" exercise in futility, USA Today reports. General Motors is discontinuing hybrid versions of the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon SUVs, while Mercedes-Benz and Toyota's Lexus division are doing the same with their S-Class hybrid and LS hybrid sedans, respectively. The culprit? Big price increases for fuel economy improvements that border on the unimpressive. Granted, the Escalade hybrid gets 31 percent better fuel economy than the standard version, but that still maps out to a combined fuel-efficiency rating of just 21 miles per gallon. That can be seen as a worthwhile increase, if it didn't cost over $8,000 extra. The 2014 Escalade Hybrid, for example, starts at $74,425 while the non-hybrid can be had for $66,295. Meanwhile, the Lexus full-size hybrid costs $6,000 more than the regular version but only gets 1-2 mpg better combined fuel economy. The result of all these high costs? Low sales. Through April, GM sold 82 of its hybrid SUVs and pickups, down from 541 a year earlier. And the LS hybrid sales were in single-digit territory for April. That isn't stopping Lexus from promoting its hybrids as the right solution (with the wrong facts), though. There are still automakers giving big hybrid vehicles a shot, though. Nissan's Infiniti division is selling a hybrid version of its QX60 and says an impressive 10 percent of QX60 buyers choose the hybrid, which costs just $3,000 more. Looks like money talks.
