Infiniti G35 Review
The Infiniti G35 was introduced in 2003 as the successor to the Infiniti G20. It makes use of a 6-cylinder V6 engine that pumps out 280hp (298hp in manual transmission models) and incorporates an element of luxury that some upscale Japanese models in its class lack. The coupe is a little shorter, a little wider, and a little lower to the ground than the sedan, and many laud the G35 as a fine intermingling of luxury and sport, with positive results.

Performance and Handling
Gas Mileage
Having an engine as powerful as the G35's does have its drawbacks. According to Autos.com, the G35 ranks 18th out of 33 cars in the Near-Luxury category for fuel efficiency. The city/highway ratings for the G35 are as follows:
Safety
The NHTSA currently has no safety information on the G35, but Autos.com rates it 3rd safest in the near-luxury category. This honor is somewhat diminished, however, by the fact that the G35 shares the 3rd place standing with eleven other cars and the fact that it achieved this with a mere 3.2/5 star rating.
Reliability and Maintenance
As it is a relatively young model, reliability ratings are only available for the 2003 G35. Luckily, however, according to Automotive Information Systems, it appears that it had very few problems and required minimal maintenance, and this should continue for the few models that followed it.
