This car is so good it must have the established sports sedan builders feeling nervous. No need to pay extra to get the power you want, the 2004 Infiniti G35 has plenty right out of the box. Rear-drive assures handling in the twisties will be fun, though one car mag states that when pressed to the limit the tail can slide out unexpectedly, and that's with the standard vehicle stability control turned on. A roomy cabin and spacious trunk make the G35 perfectly suitable for family use. We like the all-wheel-drive option, too.
