hi guys just came across this thread first thanks to the person that created it, everyone is sharing their experiences on the infiniti g35 and g37 as for me i don't hve any experience on the car but infiniti build solid and fast engines, but i think u guy should race the g35 or g37 against a peugeot 508 that is so fucking fast the car dusted me and my friend along jos-bauchi road we were using a 2005 benz e320, i gave my benz full throtle but i could to catch up all to no avail its no dat it's a v6 it a 4cylinder maybe it could match the g35. my opinion sha

HeavenlyBang:


Lol, your E320 does just 220 HP. There are i4s out there that'll give it a run for its money, no surprise.


That said, the Peugeot would get absolutely destroyed by a G35.

Arrow144:
sir all i can say is your g35 is just a powerful machine, i am even thinking of selling my benz to get one at least let me join the infiniti club too... and also disgrace the hell out of those german cars. tanx for ur response

Benz4pimp:
just saw this thread,I am about selling my accord 2009 for gx35 2007...I pray I no waste money oooo

HeavenlyBang:


How much are you budgeting for the G?

Benz4pimp:
saw one on a thread for 1.3m,2006

HeavenlyBang:


Don't buy a 2006. Look for a 2007+.

Pipedreams:


Pls go for 2007 and above. The new face lift. The 2006 below looks old. It started production in 2003. Not appealing. The new models also packs more punches in performance with an upgraded modern engine. You should get one for 3.5m toks. Naija drive 1.8m ish

Benz4pimp:
i am not after the design....I was posted a pic of 2007,is 07 also bad?

Philadelphia:


Why? You just advise someone not to buy a 2006 G35 but look for a 2007+ without good reasons?

Benz4pimp:
whats your reason please?manual/auto tranny

Pipedreams:

HeavenlyBang:



2007 wasn't just a facelift, it was an entirely new generation. For one, 2007+ looks much better than the previous years.

Second and most important, the engine on 2007+ isn't the same as previous years. Previous years used the VQ35DE. 2007/2008 used the VQ35HR. 20 HP+ increase in power. A smoother, more performance-oriented torque curve.

Also the VQ35DE had oil burning issues, but they were fixed on the VQ35HR.

My next car will almost definitely be a G35, and I'd buy a 2007/2008.




Lol, mind yourself. A 2007 G35 no pass 2.3m if you import toks yourself. 2.5-2.7 if you buy from a dealer. They're cheap af in the US.

Pipedreams:


Dey are not o. One dealer sold one opposite my office for 3.8m. In the US. My cousin bought it in the US for 9500USD. Less than 68k miles

HeavenlyBang:


He didn't search well. 2007 G35s sell for 5-6k on Craigslist. Clean title. That's 3.3m or so for everything.

I've seen 2007 Run/Drive G's with only rear damage go for 2k on IAA.


Edit: 2008 G35. 139k miles. Under 6k from a dealership.

Benz4pimp:
what of the M35x

Pipedreams:


It has a better interior than the G35. But i hate the back. Its too big and ugly. The G35 looks finer

Benz4pimp:
funny enough,I love ugly cars....I guess 2006 is ugly too and that’s why peepz don’t like it...But someone said they do have electrical faults

Pipedreams:


No not frequently. But once e start. E dey mad o. Autologic helped me resolve the last issue by scanning and fixing it. Just scan d ride whenever u wana fix. Trial and error mecs would mess u up

Benz4pimp:
you mean the 06?i am thinking of proving for 1m

HeavenlyBang:


I'm a fan! It's a proper E Class competitor and came with some unreal (at the time) technology.

Same platform as the G, same powertrain too. Generally very reliable but the amount of tech on it means there's more stuff that could go bad.

A much less sporty ride than the G. Worse fuel economy than the G, which is saying something considering how bad the G's gas mileage already is.

Cheap in Nigeria because mechos inevitably spoil something. Buy a Nigerian used only if you have a Grade A mecho to check it out and handle repairs. Of course, your guy should have high-level diagnostic tools.

I'd take the M35 over an ES 350, without hesitation. It's not quite as good-looking but apart from looks and reliability, it's more car.

Benz4pimp:
The interior scares me,too many gadgets.From Bose speakers on the driver’s seat to head phones at the back sit.....I saw a naija use and I am negotiating for 1.4.You mean it consumes too many fuel?like v8?

Pipedreams:


Ah i would take the 2007 ES 350

HeavenlyBang:


Yes, it's very well-loaded. Don't buy if you don't have the money to fix things that may go wrong.

Yes, like a V8. Expect to get around 6km/l while driving in the city. That's 16l/100km.

Edit: It's a 3.5L engine that's supposed to run on premium, which we don't have here. Plus the M35 is a pretty heavy car.



I wouldn't.
