"The IS 350 is powered by a high performance, high output 3.5-litre engine that delivers over 300 horsepower and 275 lb.ft. of torque, resulting in 0-60 mile/hour acceleration in under six seconds."

i like that, looks pretty good, almost BMWish, but wiht more flowing lines.

Its nice and all but what disapoints is that the only model with a manual is the RWD with the smaller engine.

Nice looking car, 200+hp on the 2.5L V6 is nice but they are getting into Subaru territory with the AWD and probably for allot more money than a similarly equiped Subaru. The 3.5L with 300+hp will be competition for the BMW 330 but it only comes with the 6spd autobox with the sequential shifter, the only place where a 6spd manual is offered is on the IS250rwd wich sounds like it will be the base model.

Other than that untill I can actually get into one and drive it I can't coment much further.

Laterz :)

it looks boring, and there are other cars out there with similar if not better performance.

I so want a g35... well a g35x with two doors would be nice.

A friend of my dads picked up a g35x and brought us for a spin.

What a sweet ride.

Not at all but I'm always looking. I also prefer the Infinity G35.

Yes!

We discussed this at the camping trip as well.

The Infinity is a really nice car.

However, I have seen a suprising number of women driving it.
