I purchased an '08 G35x last March and truly love driving the car. The responsiveness is something else!! The rear drive has it all over the front wheel drive Acura TL. It's simply a blast to drive. My only complaint is of course is highway gas mileage.
 
My normal combined driving gets me somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 to 20.5 mpg. But on the highway, the previous posts are right on. Turning over 3k RPM at 75mph is a bit hard on the wallet. The 23mpg is about right although I have seen it creep up closer to 24mpg.
 
I too have been trying to see what the 7 speed transmission will do for highway mileage. I doubt it will make any significant difference in everyday driving.
 
So my advice is to simply to the match. It's very simple to calculate your gas expense for a given year. If it's worth it to you to wait. Otherwise, save your money up front and start having fun tomorrow!!!
 
Hope that helps!

I see 20 G35x and same amount of coupes and standard G at a central NJ dealer, so just shop around. There are many sitting in inventory.
 
BTW, .9% is as low as I've seen to date. THe same dealer has a teaser rate for 2Y lease for $345. That ain't happening.
 
Also, if you look at the inventory, the cars do not show exact options for the MSRP. This makes it more difficult to compare options, so be careful in the hunt.

Problem with a starting hesitation or extended crank? by triblkg

I purchased G35 new approx. 1 year ago, after about 12k miles I started experiencing (ramdomly) what can only be described as an extended crank problem. It has not yet failed to start however, it is scary when you are away from home and your car takes several seconds(more than 6) to start. I know it is not bad gas as I have switched to several different brands and the problem still happens. There are no error codes generated and the dealership has replaced several parts to no avail. I have been attempting to get Nissan/Infiniti to step up and address the problem however, all they seem to want to do is continue swapping out parts. Has anyone else had a similar problem with a starting hesitation or extended crank?
    
Thanks for your replies!
