Took delivery of mine 5 days ago - too early really to give an in-depth review. I traded my '05 G35x w/prem&nav for the '08 G35xS prem/nav/sport (no tech). First impressions:
 
  • Backup camera is VERY cool! Already saved my fat from the fire.

  • Hi-tech stuff is jam-packed into this thing - my lease will be up before I learn how to use all of it.

  • The voice recognition is dead-on accurate - once I know the command, it will make the tech stuff more user-friendly.

  • When reading the manual(s), Canadians got MANY more voice commands than US buyers. My dealer said that '07 nav systems (which had more commands) US feedback to Infiniti said "us" Americans got too confused, so they changed the voice systems to fewer commands. For instance, in the '08 model I can tell the climate control to turn off or on or turn on satellite radio. Canadians can tell the system to come on and make it 73 degrees and change the audio to XM 54. I wish Infiniti could allow me to be as intelligent as a Canadian and have those detailed options . I'm NOT happy with the restrictions/"dumbing down" of the US voice commands! I want that flexibility!

    These thing said: I really, REALLY like the new G35xS compared to the older G35x.

    Mark,
     
    Sounds like a beautiful ride. What color combo did you decide on?
    Being Canadian born I can vouch for the "smarts" of Canadians .
    But seriously I cannot imagine anyone wanting "LESS" functionality. When will we stop listening to focus groups????
    Anyway, use your car well.

    Lakeshore Slate with Stone Leather/Washi interior. I preferred the Graphite interior with wood, but they dont make the Lakeshore Slate/Graphite combination this year (yes, I know you can "build" it on the website, but unfortunately it's wrong...) and the Sport Package eliminates the wood choice. It's definitely "purty"!
     
    Thanks for the good wishes!

    Infiniti G35xS sedan, was wondering about changing the sports seats by epipen11

    I just bought a 2008 Infiniti G35xS sports sedan and I love the car except for the seats, they are not flat and the ends of the seat go up. They are supposed to give more support but they are too narrow, I was wondering what types of people would be able to work on making it flat (I think I read somewhere that all you had to do was remove the braces from the seat but i'm not sure).
     
    If anyone knows the types of people I should call (I tried calling upholserers but they don't do this) or if anyone has owned a G35 sports sedan and knows how to fix the problem please let me know, thanks.

    Someone posted on here before..something about cutting two metal brackets on the bottom. I've yet to muster the courage to rip mine out..but I find the seats incredibly thin for my US butt !
