There's an infinti g35 coupe parked at the building next to my work. It has dealer plates, a spoiler and it's silver. If there wasn't a fence I'd go walk up and check it out. The place is one of the biggest ad agencies in the world (Chiat-Day), and I know that they have done some work for Infinti's print campaign in addition to commercials for them.

At first I thought it was a 350z, but there's no mistaking the infinti symbol on the back, and it wasn't as aggressive looking as I thought I'd seen the Z.

I'm at work, and I don't have my cam, otherwise I'd take pictures.

Believe it or not there is a '96 corolla parked in front of my building with some minor rear bumper damage. Seriously! :D

difference of course being that there's probably 200k + corollas out there, and a handful of g35 coupes out on the street right now :)

and no pics due to my camera being at home, like I said in my first post.

The G35's are getting way too common in LA.. Almost everyday I see one or two G35's on my way to my parents place (yes many a time its that same car that I saw yesterday and the day before). But the fact remains they are quite popular..

I like the red LED tail light.. but I do not like the normal bulb based indicator.. couldnt they made that LED too?

There is a Lamborghini Murchiealgo sittin' a couple houses down from me to. The guy is a collector, v. rich, also has a Ferrari F355 Spider. He keeps 'em in this cool garage. I get to peek in every now and then and I've been for a ride in the F355. I told him to drive down my friends' road. Ohhh were they jealous :D

Whoa! Well that makes sense. Chiat-Day is the nation's leading advertising agency and is the force behind the sales of Nissan and Infiniti automobiles. They do really incredible work! We studied them in my Marketing Strategy class this summer. They also worked with Porsche, but got their account 'put up for review' (canned) not after long. The agency will drive the car or try out the products to get a feel for them, and then let their expressions flow into a commercial or magazine ad. If Chiat-Day has got a G35 Coupe in their lot, you can bet ideas are a-brewin' in that place, and we should expect to see some commercials for it before the end of the year.

i see about 50+ G35 Sedans daily since I work @ Infiniti... but never seen a coupe yet, although i have seen some 350z's. The G35 Sedan's are quite fast :) The sport brakes leave something to be desired though, u really need to test them out before taking the car on the road or the person behind u just might hit u from behind when u tap on those brakes and the car comes to a sudden halt =/

Hey guess what, the owner of Mitsubishi is building a house down the street from me. They've dug a huge portion of the ground up for, guess what, underground garages. His house is gonna be so awesome. i live in Bradbury, CA btw. Oh yea, War Emblem was being kept in the house next to mine. Why do i bring this up, don't know, what does this have to do with the post? nothing, but i felt like sharing.

TDP, bring your cam to work, for God's sake!!! :) The G35 coupe looks sweet, better than the sedan IMO.
