So it looks like the G35 is the new value leader in this segment. Even the new TL-S seems to cost more.

Really really like the price advantage, but sadly it doesnt do much else for me.

one of the reasons i never got a g35 is because everyone seems to have one due to its competitive pricing. i'm the kind of person that likes exclusivity without having to spend an arm and a leg. though its good for consumers it would really make me mad when you start seeing it on the road everywhere.

I agree with everything said here but the only thing that makes me somewhat interested in the G35 is the massive advantage in room it has over the IS. Other than that, I don't wanna be one of the million G35s driving around because Infiniti will sell a lot of these.

Wow, so u priced it and the TL costs more base? Wow..the TL also was a sub 30k car and they bumped the price with the new gen and it sold just as well.

You have to get the sport to get the paddle shift and a few other features that are standard on the IS350. Also th base price is lower but the IS has more standard features. Keyless access and start are standard, leather seats are standard and moonroof, plus the paddleshifters are standard and last time i checked HID are optional on G35. So comparably equipped the IS may be the better value.

Keyless access and HIDis standard on G35. I don't care about those paddle shifters because I can get 6sp MANUAL!
Still, IS350 is more expensive. Unless you meant the IS250 is the better value...

The most impressive thing about Infiniti, right now (to me), is their amazingly good lease rates on 21 month leases on the G and M (and maybe others?).

How can this be the case when base MSRP is 35,705 for the IS350 and you can get an almost fully loaded G35 for that price?

Look at what std on both cars and then look at a comparably equipped G35 prices are very close. Also the manual infiniti is just as fast as the auto Lexus. Last time i checked IS350 has alot more standard features, higher resale value, more reliable car and has better dealer service so the IS wins on value.
