Any details on why he hated it? Performance? High maintenance? Comfort?

he said it was slow :dunno: , his previous car was an audi a4 and he traded the g35 in for a suzuki sx4 :nuts:

the paint was chipping off of the front of the car and had to be repainted.

The interior rattled more than my old truck

etc…

The way he put it was that he paid a lot for a very mediocre car that has a ton of very annoying little problems. Nothing major broke but…

I think his was just a POS car, every review I read seems to be a lot better than what he experienced.

Very nice car! They are quick too! I raced one last year when I had my 2000 Z28, it pulled on me pretty bad. I had a few bolt ons and the G35 had a CAI.

Yeah, I guess that wasn’t the best example.

So there’s this. There are a good number of G35’s on [hellaflush.com](http://hellaflush.com) I like. This being one of them.
