G35 3.5L engine info........

See.....there is more power in the G35. At first it will only have a 5sp auto, but will most likely get a 6sp soon after. The engine will make 260hp, 5 more hp than the max, but an imprssive 260ft-lbs of torque at 4800 rpm. Even with the automatic this car will be FAST. A I35(5 less hp, 15 less ft-lbs, and a 4sp auto) is already at around 7 seconds to 60. The Auto G35 will mostly likely be a 14 second 1/4 car. Hey...the auto max is too.

I'm not surprised at all by that torque given that's what the 2k2 Pathfinder makes with the same engine.

Even though the max torque might hit at 4800, I bet at 2k rpm, it'll still be more torque generated than your VG so

What are the cons on this car? It almost seems to give us what we want, RWD, possible 6-spd, 3-spoke steering wheel, led tails, near 50/50 weight, so on and so forth. Even looks nice, c'mon, looks do matter, well, I guess they don't with the 5th gen. But it's nice to have looks. What is it's size, like the IS300 or ES300?

I've seen alot of rationalization on this board, like how the beam axle is a good thing. Anyone prefer FWD to RWD?

The price will be pretty expensive. Base is $30k and I bet when you option it out, it'll be around $40-35k. If you want the good, you gotta pay

Ha! Allready thinking about trading in . I am hopeing they come out with a Skyline GT-R in 2003, then I will buy one that is a few years old in late 2005, 2006. It's way to far in the future to really think about now though.

i like to think way into the future. i love this car but a few things that nissan did **** me off. the rear deck rattle is horrible, no underhood light, ****ty nissan service, AND right now my dad is bringing my car to nissan because the left side of my speakers is cutting out intermittently i think only from the CD player. other than that i love the car, LOVE IT. it's very pretty and fast but RWD and 52:48, and a advanced inpedendent rear is very tempting. and in like 3 years i bet it will have more power too i will lease this one though.
