Here's a place you can talk specifically about your G35x - or the one that you'd like to be yours! Since the 07 G35x utilizes a unique combination of new engine, chassis and AWD, it seems like it deserves its own discussion.
 
Enjoy!

2007 G35x Mileage / RPMs question... by ddny

Been driving my '07 G35x, it's pretty nice, feels/sounds like a race car, but...
  
My question - what RPMs does yours run at at 60 or 70? For instance, mine runs 3,000RPMs 70mph, which to me seems preposterous, as if it's running in 3rd or 4th gear.
  
I want to know if these all do this, or is my car broken?
  
Thanks all!

2007 G35x Loaner by audi2infinti

My G35 6MT coupe is in the shop for a headlight recall and they gave me a brand new 2007 G35x loaner. What an improvement over the old G sedan! It is very nice. Just my quick two cents:
 
The looks are so much better. Both in and out.
 
The interior has really improved over the older model, but I am not sure if I like the styling any more.
 
The ride seems much smoother. But that may just be the tires.
 
The shift points on the auto were a little off for me, but I am sure the car adapts to the driver/conditions.
 
Unfortunately, my right leg rubs on the bulging center console in all the wrong ways and I still cannot get the driver seat set "just right".
 
Also, I think maybe the center console and dash may overwhelm the feeling of the interior. The car feels smaller.
 
But:
 
AWD, Leather, 300 horse v6, decent stereo, power everything, key fob/keyless ignition, and too much more to list... all at a great price point no one else can touch.
 
Maybe when i get ready to trade in my Coupe next year the G35 sedan will be on my list of cars to test drive.

I think he'd like to hear from other G35x owners as well.

You mean other opinions count as well?

hehe. Yes, the msg was kind of moved to the "G35x" forum, the X being a separate beast from the Coupe/Sport, with its 306HP/AWD combo...
 
Love the car of course, just wish it had a "granny" switch so I could actually get > 20mpg sometimes

These cars have the VQ35HR. Infiniti say's the HR stands for High Rev and High Responsiveness. This engine is low friction, high reving and smooth so driving at 70 at 3,000 RPM is effortless; we just aren't used to seeing those RPM's. What are the 6 MT's turning at 70?

Yes, smooth is the word. My first inclination was to because it's so different drivetrain-wise from my quietly speedy Accord V6.
 
After taking a few spins over the weekend, I now conclude that the problem exists in the driver's seat (me). The thing is just damn awesome, and sounds like a race car when properly wound out...
