It's a nice car but I don't think the wheels flow well with the car for some reason maybe if the spokes weren't curved.

I don't like how the rims are sticking out and are wider than the tires. Nice looking otherwise.

I actually like that a lot. Just go lower and it's perfect.

*IMPORTANT*
You really cant judge a car by pics... you have to see it in person.

Check the VIP Style forum, i'm sure you'll book yourself into rehab.

As for the looks of these cars, i was after a comparision between different generations of coupe or sedan...

You don't want to be driving an 08, that looks the same as an '03

Love the car with those wheels. I agree about it needing dropped more as there is quite a gap. All around, Very Nice!!

You guys need to see these cars in person if you think the 07+ looks anything like the previous gen. The interior is obvious as it is completely different, but even the exterior is totally different. Now, coupe to coupe though I'd say it is similar and perhaps not enough of a change, but the new sedan looks nothing like the old sedan.

Looks so good. I love the new G sedan. But not so much of the new G coupe.

Its nice but IMO, its just ungainly from most angles and it does look like the previous version. I actually prefer the refreshed G35 than the new version. It just looks weird.

Him spelling it wrong is a clear example of Infiniti's image and perception problem. I have seen OWNERS on INFINITI forums spell it wrong multiple times!!!

I've literally seen dozens of threads on car enthusiast forums, where it is spelled wrong. The problem is not with people, but with the company. People that respect a company and a company that is respected, will have its name spelled correctly.

Finally no one told them to spell Infiniti with an "i". Infinity is a term known by the general public and Infinity brand speakers is a well known brand.

Honestly, their name and the names for their vehicles are all wrong and it cannot be fixed.

I must be the only one who doesn't care for the wheel fitment. Too much offset and too low of a profile tire. Borders on ghetto.
