2007 Infiniti G3x News: Spy shot of a Black G35

that's sweet!

[Vintalage]

I must say, i'm not impressed with it. I suppose I had high expectations. The exterior looks more like a refresh than a redesign, but it is indeed a redesign. It is just ok but the interior looks pretty good. Gauges look really good and it isn't backlit with an amber color. However, i'm torn on the center stack. Although nice, it looks condensed. At least the quality is better and the volume is on the correct side.

All in all though, it looks good.

It's surprising that Lexus has the new radical product in this segment.

uber-sexy

[Panacea]

^^^ I agree. Teh sex!

[Braves299]

nah Lexus has it beat. I don't like the exterior of this car much.

[Vintalage]

^ Those distance shots really show it off. Not bad at all, i'm liking it more. Certainly more aggressive than the current sedan.

[ViperGTSR]

i think its beautiful, and the center stack works for me, i don't like the honda/vw-esque gauge lighting, but its definitely much better than the amber. I might have to tell my stepdad to trade in his 03 for this!

[bigbenSC]

I'm unimpressed for the most part. The exterior is evolutionary. The interior looks better than the current one, but I can't tell if the plastic feel will be any better. They skipped on the paddle shifters here too, thats a big mistake. I'd rather have as IS 350. Any word on what the power is now?

At a Glance: 2007 Infiniti G35 Sedan

The all-new 2007 Infiniti G Sedan, which goes on sale in November 2006, is the second generation of Infiniti’s groundbreaking sport sedan. First introduced in 2002 as an alternative to the existing “machine-like” vehicles in class, everything about the new 2007 G is designed to create a more powerful driving sensation – from its rewarding performance and the sophisticated exterior, to the finely crafted interior and intuitive technology.

The new G’s exterior continues the original vibrant design theme with seductive, athletic styling that is clean, simple yet very distinctive. Key design elements include the sculpted grille blades, iconic headlights and taillights and the new, crisp character line that emphasizes the G’s aggressive rear-wheel drive appearance.

Inside, the all-new interior design is refined, inviting and offers a new level of modern warmth and hospitality. The G interior also offers unique features such as the white-and-violet Fine Vision gauge illumination and high-touch, textured aluminum-alloy trim with "Washi" (traditional Japanese handmade paper) patterning.

Available advanced technologies include RearView Monitor, a touch screen navigation system with available real-time traffic and the audiophile-quality Infiniti Studio on Wheels™ by Bose®, combining the industry’s first 3-way front door speaker array using 10-inch woofers with an audiophile quality head unit incorporating a 24-bit Burr Brown® Digital Audio Converter.

The heart of the G35 remains its advanced engine, platform and drivetrain, anchored by the “next generation” of the award-winning VQ-series 3.5-liter DOHC V6, now rated at an estimated 300-plus horsepower*. The standard V6 is mated to a choice of a 5-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode and Downshift Rev Matching or close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission. Steering wheel-mounted solid magnesium paddle shifters are standard on the G35 Sport A/T model.

The G’s second generation FM (Front Mid-ship) platform features a 4-wheel independent suspension with lightweight aluminum components and improved body stiffness. The 2007 G35 is also offered with Infiniti “intelligent” all-wheel drive system.

god I love that center dash-lots of buttons

[kse73]

I am REALLY liking the Infinity Sedans more and more. I was toying with the idea of gettin a used sedan last year. This one is lookin great and furthering its cause in my book.

[ndprunner22]

what is the compact flash reader for?
that car is bad ass i plan on getting an older g35 after i ditch the GA

cant wait, we just got a m45 its bad ass

[bigbenSC]

The CF slot is just another way to get MP3's to play in the stock sound system. The radio MAY have a HDD in it, but I haven't read that yet. The CF card would be a great way to dump songs into a HDD.

[XMBlackGT1]

I think the "refreshed" version of the sedan looks great. It definately gives it a little more aggressive stance. I cannot wait until the redesigned coupe hits the market in summer of 2007- I'm going to be in line to buy one. Infiniti has really been putting some good vehicles out in the past few years.

[Graxall]

This car is sweeeet. I almost bought a Infiniti I35..very sweet car too. Interior is soo nice on this too, didnt see if it said bose anywhere but thats usually what infiniti has, and they hit good too...awsome car proly gonna be 60k...
