I've actually been thinking about picking one up near the end of summer. The G35 is a great car, just not as fun as the suby.

How does this respond to downshifts? Right now I have a G35s, which is the best auto I have driven. Crisp, rev-matched downshifts and equally smooth upshifts. Downshifts are great on exit ramps, so much fun. A video would be spectacular. Great engineering work in this thread.

At around 45K miles (this past September), my driver's side OEM low beam went out. I replaced both with new Silverstars! What a difference!

 

This weekend, only 5 months and 8K miles since the replacement, both low beams went out within 3 days. I know many have said that our cars eat bulbs, but for the first set to last 3+ years and then the Silverstars burn out after 5 months is unacceptable.

 

Needless to say, Sylvania's going to hear about it...

The lighting FAQ has some good info. The silverstars have about 50% of the life of the stock bulbs. If you disable the DRL's it increases the chance that the bulbs will last longer (less hours per bulb).
