My wife took her 2001 G20 in for service yesterday, and I was pleasantly surprised when they gave her a silver G35 sedan with leather for a loaner for the day.

Of course I took it for a spin. This was the 3rd time I've driven one (an auto sedan, and manual coupe I test drove).

I have to say, I'm still very impressed with the car, especially for the price.

It's definitely a drivers car.

Excellent acceleration, nice low end tq and still decent pull up top. Perfectly spaced gearing to keep you right in the power range. Great brakes, and nice handling feel. Very precise steering. Plus it's good looking, has a nice interior, and is large enough to be practical. Definitely on my list of cars to check out for my next ride, along with the Rx8, GTO, and the Subaru Legacy B4 (when it comes out).

 

When my wife was looking to replace her Maxima we considered the new Max,Audi A4,Volvo S60 and the Gsedan.After test driving the G we both fell in love.Power,comfort,looks,RWD and price was hard to beat. 6 months later we love it even more.
