The Infiniti G35 has been named the Car of the Year by Motor Trend. And it is well deserved...
http://www.motortrend.com/motor/features/news/nov02news/112_021120_coy
I believe that it is well deserved...
1. 280HP V6VQ Motor - Maxima derivative... SOLID motor
2. RWD
3. Dual Exhuast - Looks Awesome from the factory!!!
4. Sport Designed and Tuned Suspension
5. This 6spd thingamajig...
6. Interior fit and finish is superb
7. 14.2 at 99MPH STOCK
8. Right around $30k price tag
But...
It's pretty hefty though, around 3900 lbs. And the insurance will be high, for theft and power.... It is not cheap either.
But damn, what a ride.

Try checking TNN. I'm pretty sure they have other automotive shows on there besides MT. I would think MT is on there too if it's not on SpeedChannel
I wouldn't mind buying one, if they changed the rear tail lights. The front and side styling is perfect, don't know what happened to the rear. Other than that it's a great car (rather have that car than a 350Z by far).

I like the tailz and what makes them better is that they have led bulbs.

I want the Z and like the Z better but the I35 would actualyl fit my lifestyle better. I wonder how much the price will go down after it's been around for a while.
