The Infiniti G35 Coupe is essentially a stretched version of Nissan's 350Z sports car, and you can tell from its muscular lines that it's a fast and classy ride. Although it's not a huge drawback, some of the controls in the G35 Coupe aren't located at your fingertips like they are in the latest competition from Lexus, the new IS. Overall, the Infiniti is a more exciting car than the Lexus, but it's not quite as relaxing and refined.
