![]() About the Infiniti G35The Infiniti G35 is the third-generation import of Nissan's Skyline V35 luxury-sport vehicle. It is available as a four-door sedan and two-door coupe, and both versions offer aerodynamic exterior lines and the handling of sports cars. The powerful G35, so named for its 3.5 liter engine, quietly hums like a luxury car for the sport-minded driver. The impossibly smooth six-cylinder engine can accelerate from zero to sixty in 5.8 seconds, yet it seats four adults comfortably. Overall, the G35 is elegant inside and out with the ability to compete with any other sports car for speed.As a front-engine, rear wheel drive vehicle, the G35 runs between 260 and 298 horsepower in the 222 kW V6 engine. Both 5-speed automatic and 6-speed manual transmissions are available. The body of the G35... View more is all-steel and stiff with a powerful drive-train that provides confidence and control at high speeds. A fuel-conscious G35 driver can get 27 miles to the gallon, even though the 2005 model is ranked at 24. For safety, the G35 sports dual-stage front airbags, front seat bags, and curtain side-impact airbags in the front and rear. The first of the Infiniti G (P10) series was released in 1991 as a redone version of Nissan's Primera; it was replaced by the P11 in 1999. The third-generation G35 replaced that G20 line with its sleek, modern exterior and V6 engine for speed. Nissan then redesigned the G35 and unveiled the curvy G37 in 2007. The sedan version of the car has five different trim options: the base model, Journey, G35x with all-wheel drive, Sport, and Sport 6MT. The most popular and produced sedan trim is the Journey, which offers a responsive automatic climate control and a six-CD changer stereo. The Sport and 6MT trims offer sport seats, 18-inch tires, and a limited-slip differential. The G35 was refreshed in 2005 with a refreshing interior and exterior, sporting higher quality gauges, knobs, and an authentic aluminum trim. The original Brembo brakes were also replaced by larger braking discs and a caliper design better fitted for the car. Rosewood trim is also offered as an option on the 2005 model. Exterior design jewelry comes in the Xenon headlamps, LED taillights, and polished dual-rear exhaust pipes. The Infiniti G35 won the Motor Trend Car of the Year" award in 2003 for its "cool, casual luxury" at a price that was just as cool.
