I jsut picked up a IP/Graphite Premium 6MT!!!Wow this car is amazing! I love it. Only thing that bothers me is when releasing the clutch a bit fast, not high rev though it makes a thud noise. My buddy just picked up the same car last week and his does the samething. Anyone have any input on this? Other then that The car is amazing. I though the suspension was going to be a bit stiffer, feels just like my Uncles EX35. I was expecting more of a 350z stiffness being that its a Sport Model. Nonetheless its Great! Overall i'm extremely happy with my purchase.

 

cool

 

Congrats! Yeah the clutch is a little different on this car but you will get used to it.

 

Congrats that is the same way I want a G37 (IP/Graphite Premium 6MT). Did you lease or buy?

 

I Leased it. 24months but i have a feeling i'll want to keep it longer

 

So the thud is normal? I'm assuming it is since my buddies does the same thign.

 

Congrats, I hope to get mine tomorrow - can't wait

 

Glad to hear a satisfied new owner.
I'll be getting mine Monday or Tuesday.

 

I plan on leasing for 39 months with 15K per year.

 

throw some coil overs on that baby...

 

Im pretty sure The "Thud" you hear comes from the clutch pedal when you release it quickly. I asssume Infiniti got a lot of harsh criticism due to the "heavy" clutch on the g35 so to remedy that they have put flimsier springs on the clutch pedal. You can simulate the sound sitting in your drive way in nuetral, depressing the clutch and then releasing it quickly.
