The interior of the Infinity G35 is described as "warm elegance" by Kyle Bazemore, a public relations officer for Infinity.
To this day this company cannot get people including owners to spell the name right.
A marketing disaster. Your NAME is the most important BRANDING. LMAO here......
It looks pretty good in that pic in red.
The price is lowest in class, going to help tons for those concerend with the power/dollar equation.
EDIT
We saw the exact same thing. I'm reading the article and thinking "so sad, no one cares enough to spell the name right".

Hmm...so 0-60 in just about 5 seconds for the auto im guessing. The 6mt should be fairly quick then. I guess it was infiniti's plan to make the g35 exactly the same rated HP as the IS to show that it might be faster Cant wait for the comparos!

I will say this vs the IS 250 at the same price gives the 102hp advantage G35 a very strong arguement (as well as 328 etc).
Horsepower does sell!

My guess is that pricing for the 2007 G35 will be about halfway between the IS250 and the IS350.
The IS350 is about $4000 more than the IS250 auto, so I'm thinking a similarly equipped G35 will be $2000 more than a IS250, and $2000 less than a IS350.

Manufacturer numbers aren't that useful anyway. We'll see how the mags test it.
