The fourth-generation Infiniti G35 sedan (V36) arrived for the 2007 model year on an updated FM platform. It introduced the impressive VQ35HR V6 engine, which produced 306 horsepower and featured a 7,500 rpm redline. For 2009, the sedan adopted the G37 name and the larger 3.7L VQ37VHR engine from the coupe. The model was briefly re-badged as the Q40 in 2015 for a final year of production, solidifying its place as a reliable and sporty entry-level luxury car.
While not a traditional collector car, the V36 G35 is popular with enthusiasts for its strong performance, rear-wheel-drive dynamics, and high value. Clean, unmodified examples are becoming uncommon as many have been modified or driven hard. The rare G35S sedan with the 6-speed manual transmission is the most sought-after variant for its enhanced driving engagement and sport-tuned suspension.
The market for the G35 is driven by condition and mileage rather than rarity. Most available cars are daily drivers with high mileage, keeping the average price low at around $5,000. The wide spread from $1,200 to $17,000 shows the significant premium paid for low-mileage, well-maintained examples, especially for the desirable G35S models.
Buying Tips
- Check for oil gallery gasket failure, a known VQ35HR issue. Look for low oil pressure at idle when warm or check service records for this expensive repair.
- Inspect the dashboard and door panels for melting or stickiness, a common problem caused by sun exposure.
- Test all interior electronics, including the infotainment screen, power seats, and Bose stereo system, as repairs can be costly.
- The G35S models feature larger brakes; check for warped rotors, which can cause vibrations under braking.
- Listen for clicking sounds from the rear axles during tight, low-speed turns, which indicates wear.
Prices for the 4th generation Infiniti G35 range from approximately $1,200 for high-mileage examples to $17,000 for pristine, low-mileage cars.
