Why The Infiniti G35 Is The BEST Skyline

[@cerisem7727]

Infiniti G35 or G series is a Skyline. In Japan, Nissan has these vehicles named as Skyline under their Nissan brand.

[@allenleroy9109]

We saw it in the video lol

[@dvldrvr420]

They also sold the g as a skyline in North America as well. Nissan skyline 350gt.

[@shanetyler9391]

Exactly right 😊

[@reptilez13]

I mean, yeah, but here they aren't. And they have different interiors etc.

[@SonikJesus]

Who cares? It’s not a GTR.

[@charlsfrdrck]

I just bought a completely unadulterated 2004 G35 sedan, pampered to death.. dark blue, 104,000, mi, absolutely no rust whatsoever, A couple dents and dings here and there.. paid $5,200 for it.. im on day 2 and I'm the happiest fckn clam right now, finally got the reliable sports car ive always wanted 👌

[@dylanelias-berg8912]

got one the same garage kept by an older gent every service record and 114,000 miles, also dark blue

[@mountaindewmofo]

Hell yeah! I just bought a silver 2008 G35xS sedan auto with 117k for 4500 with a check engine light code for cam shaft sensors... swapped em out and it drives like a champ ... prev owner did new steering rack and alternator before they sold it to me .... they got the short end of the stick this time

@wind016 yes, it's a half-assed excuse for a sports car, more akin to an econobox. Cheap all around, poor dynamics, gutless and massively prone to understeer

[@DaMotoristX]

It's a Skyline everywhere. Look under the engine bay on the VIN plaque and it literally says "Skyline" in Kanji.

I had 3 Gs, 2 G35s & 1 G37S. Im a truck / SUV guy mostly now, but I remember these cars fondly. Especially for as cheap as they were. Perfect first car for the broke enthusiast who needs a daily but still wants to be able to have fun.

[@chevelle1967]

Nice to get some recognition in a positive manner. My 1st import car purchase from a lifetime of GM and life happening. I bought a G 6 years ago exposing me to a different car culture and new ways to enjoy cars and many new friends. My 1st impression was a fun/nice car thats not bad to work on. I still wonder why they arent more popular than they are.

[@Drdrat]

I loved the G35 Coupes from the moment I laid eyes on one leading me to owning a Q60 RS. The amount of compliments I get while driving it are crazy, and its possibly because they didn't sell/make alot but I find it a great successor to the G35.

[@StayDrivenMedia]

i love when folks make videos like this on the G35 platform, it is a great vehicle with styling sophistication that rivals even cars of today, i own an "03 G35 first gen, and its still going strong, and i'll never let her go or sell her EVER, keep it up IDEAL!... #staydriven

Back in 2003 I was driving to work on I-5 south bound and this silver Ferrari 360 Modena passed doing about 120mph right behind the Ferrari was a silver 911 Porsche as the cars passed me up on my burgundy 1991 Ford escort lx I saw something silver behind my center rearview mirror it was something way slower but yet very cool I couldn't identify this make and model but it was doing about 100mph way behind the silver Ferrari and Porsche it was the Infiniti G35. I went to work wondering what was the slow silver car. it was slow but beautiful 😍. I was determined to find out. Few months passed I failed to identify the make and model then I finally saw one at a Safeway parking lot where the store manager owned one in Caribbean blue. I knew it then I had to get one Infiniti G35. It took another year before I purchased a black 6mt g35

[@prone2101]

Bro I was a Honda kid growing up in the 1990s in mid 2k I was at a gas station fueling up at like 3am and herd a wonderful exhaust deep toned like the perfect sound lol and as the sound came closer and I was still getting gas the G35 passed by and my friend I fell in love and started looking for a G sold the civic and an accord I had 6sp coupes for a 04 6sp G coupe brembos and all I still have it today asa matter of fact I just purchased a 06 6sp coupe salvaged the motor was done I actually just bought a revup engine took a while to find one and it still needs body work but I now own 2 G35 coupe’s! Like these cars so much it keeps me busy super cool hobby bro love the G keep up the awesome work! I’m in Newyork folks are into the high end cars out here but I stick with the Simplistic G easy to maintain and fun to drive never selling lol 🤙🏾👏🏾 God bless and stay safe brother

Mine has over 120,000 miles and Zero maintenance issues or lights on its dash unlike a lot of the newer cars I see at work everyday. These Skyline 370 GT coupes are definitely some of the best ever built.

Guess which one held their value and actually appreciated? V35s are cool, just far from being the 'best Skyline' and hardly turn a head. The R33 turned heads everywhere I drove despite at the time, being cheaper than a V35. I'd splash out the extra for the turbo R33/R34 for a V35 every single time. For most the V35 is the better bang for buck, but even with inflated prices today, I'd save for a GTS-T / GTT. I understand you can't get them in America LHD. Shame 😛
