Agree 100%.I come from a 94 accord slammed 2.5 inches on stock shocks, and before that a Mk3 vr6 slammed on coils so im used to rattles and they actually never bothered me. It just irks me so much in this car because its a 40K dollar car, we should not have to deal with this. But they all are not perfect, 2 friends of mine have bimmers, one bought a E46 Bnew back in 06 and the power steering went twice and the other one bought a 08 328i and the power steering went out in the first 2 months. At least i have not gone to the dealer for anything other then an oil change and a high/sticky idle sometimes at very cold starts.

Some of the rattling issues you guys are having could be due to your driving habits. I always find it amusing to see posts in the racing forums from guys bragging about their most recent track day conquests and then see them in other threads complaining about rattles. Well duh! The more you beat on your car the looser its going to get. Doesn't matter what kind of car it is.
I very rarely drive aggresively and, shockingly, have no rattles at nearly 24k miles. Go figure....

There are going to be negatives with every car but keep in mind this car is a Luxury GT - not a family sedan or minivan or SUV. If you wanted more trunk space you should get the "M35/45".
The styling on the G37, sound of the G37, features of the G37, reliability of Infiniti, and overall value (bang for buck) and even re-sale are far superior to any other.
No wonder they call it the "G" (...spot); it stimulates high level of arrousal when viewing it or driving it.

1). I didn't get a lolipop when I bought my car.
2). When I set my air con to 72 degrees, it comes out at 71 (measured and documented).
3). My 349lb cousin cannot fit in the back seat.
4). I can't carry my 52" TV over to my girlfriend's house to watch movies.
5). I don't make 55mpg.
6). My salesman had a beard.
7). A spider spun a web in my wheel last night (serious issue here)
8). My salesman doesn't pump my gas, even after 5,000 miles (complete BS Infiniti)
9). Girl's don't flash me at red lights. Clearly a design flaw.
10). Tires squeel at 115mph on 180 degree off ramps.
11). Cop's radar can still register my speed.
12). Lambo drivers have yet to ask me to switch cars for the day.
13). I came to find out my sales man drives a Vette.
14). I have to make a payment every month.
15). Infinti doesn't offer 100,000 mile/year lease options.
16). My interest rate isn't -5%
17). Infiniti doesn't offer a carbon ceramic brake kit option.
16). My exhaust doesn't sound like a Ferrari. I thought it would. Sadface.
17). I lost my new car smell already.
18). Nav traffic doesn't show where cops and highway patrol are.
19). The DJ's on XM21, 20, and 66 are annoying.
20). I have yet to hear Rick Ashtley on either XM 8 or 9.
21). My seats don't massage me... or my family jewels.
22). My back up camera isn't in 1080p hi-def. Seriously, it's a 2008.
I'll update as more comes to mind...
Seriously, screw this junk. Porsche Boxter here I come.

2) Feel like a poser since it's not a 911 Carrera
3) I think I just nicked my plaid corduroys on the door trim. Golly!
4) Interior is tackier than my son's G35 Coupe.
5) Every time I drive it, I wish I'd saved up for a 911 or just gotten something else in the Boxster's price range.

For 6 months I was reading the threads and evaluating the pros and cons of buying a
G37. I should tell you it wasn't easy deciding between RWD vs. FWD or AWD, 4dr or coupe, black or white, G37 or BMW 335 or C350 and finally one week before I make my decision I test drove the Audi A4 3.2 with Drive Select and I was sold, this Saturday is my baby's first anniversary and I'm taking her to New York (oh BTW, my wife is coming too since it's her Birthday too!) I wish to thank you guys on G37 forum to help me make my decision in buying my new car.
