Infiniti goofs up on all 05 G35 coupes?
I read on another forum that Infiniti mistakenly forgot to put Limited Slip Differentials on the G35 coupes! I hear they are offering a rebate of 250.00!

The point I am trying to make is that you should really get all the facts, or at least as much as are available before coming up with some half based in truth, half based in internet BS, half based in laziness in fact gathering statement
The truth in this case is that Infiniti advertised the automatic 05 coupes with the Performace tire and wheel package to have the VLSD (Viscous Limited Slip Differential). Turns out that they didn't, and some customers actually took delivery of the cars thinking they did have the VLSD. Infiniti's preliminary solution is to offer the $250. My best guess (note that this part is opinion, not truth) is that they will come up with a better way to solve the problem, possibly involving buybacks, possibly some other incentive.
All of the 6MT coupes have VLSD, and all the %AT coupes with SPORT suspension have VLSD. The base 5AT coupes do not, nor were they ever advertised as having VLSD. The only ones in question are the 5AT with the performance tire and wheel package, which were originally advertised as having VLSD, but which don't.
There, now isn't that a much more informative post?
