Replying to: jl114 (Jan 23, 2008 12:35 pm) While they very willingly gave me the update, my dealer also had to order parts because he couldn't program it correctly. That resulted in keeping the loaner for about 4 days but after I got it back, the issue was taken care of... no more jumpy throttle. Z
#877 of 945 G35 or CTS??? by kennynmd Jan 24, 2008 (8:27 pm)
Any suggestions between these two vehicles? A few friends have owned Nissan's in the past and they swear that the fit and finsh is terrible with squeeks and rattles. I was thnkin about a TL but a 4th Generation is allegedly in the works for 09. The G35 is a tad cheaper in price though. The CTS is a new Generation (rattles and problems?) and is more expensive to a comparably equipped G35.Anyone compared the two while shopping???

Replying to: kennynmd (Jan 24, 2008 8:27 pm) I have never owned a Nissan before and I have now had my 07 G35 for 10 months. I have never had one squeak of rattle. Quiet as a church mouse.... until you put your foot on it.   I haven't had a chance to go see the CTS and don't know of anyone who owns one so I can only give my 2 cents on G. BTW... TL's are notorious for squeaks and rattles in any generation, so if that is an important bullet on your list of pros and cons, scratch the TL off your list.

Replying to: kennynmd (Jan 24, 2008 8:27 pm) Have you driven the TL? After a 10 minute test drive I quickly scratched it off my list. It felt small, and did not have the stable feel of the G35. The shorter wheel base contributes to a less sports car feel and I felt the fit and finish were way behind the G35.

Replying to: jebell (Jan 25, 2008 5:39 am) CTS has the advantage of being RWD like the G35. But it's going to be 7-8K more expensive at a minimum once equivalently equipped. That said the 08 CTS is a really nice car, definitely superior to the 07. I just didn't feel the value of the car (price vs. what you get) equaled the G35.   The TL is FWD. Above everything else I couldn't get past that with the TL.   FWIWs, I drove a BMW 328i, a Cadillac CTS, a Lexus IS350, the G35, an Audi A4, an Acura TL and a Saab 9-3 Aero in the same weekend.   It should be obvious by now that I chose the Infiniti.

Replying to: adamr001 (Jan 25, 2008 6:11 am) Thanks for all the replies so far. Forgot to add earlier that I am looking for a vehicle that has more of a plushier ride but has a "sporty" look ( I know that its subjective). Replies to this message: slzweibel (Jan 25, 2008 6:07 pm)

Replying to: kennynmd (Jan 25, 2008 7:59 am) I switched from my 04 TL to my G35x in August 07 (end of lease on the TL). I was happy with my TL except for the constant rattles (which Acura could never completely eliminate) and the piece of junk tires the car came with (Bridgestones) which I had to replace after 20K miles. When I had compared the TL to the G35 in 2004 the TL won hands down from a "plushier ride" standpoint even though I thought the G35 handled better. When I test drove the 07 G I was blown away. The interior is as plush if not more so than the TL and the RWD handling blows away the TL. I have consistently been trying to push my G to its limits and have yet to feel uncomfortable - even when pushing hard. I could not say that about my TL - when pushing it hard I would start to feel uncomfortable and pull back. I find my breath is taken away by the G35 at times - today I passed someone on a major highway, looked up and was doing 100 mph - effortless and the car felt solid as a rock. As for the CTS - looks like a beautiful car and got good reviews but as others have mentioned will probably run you a few thousand more than a fully loaded G. Not sure if Cadillac has any special leasing deals to help push the car.
#883 of 945 Which Tires are Best for the G? by oman9 Jan 26, 2008 (8:07 am)
I have a 2005 G35 sedan, came with Bridgestones. I'm a pretty dedicated Michelin guy, they always perform well and last a long time. I have 26K miles on my G and I've actually been satisfied with the Bridgestones. I've read many negative comments about them so I was wondering what everyone believes to be a great tire for the G?   I don't think I'll be replacing the tires before 35K miles, so I have a bit of time, just wondering what the pulse was out here regarding tires...
