I'm new to Infiniti cars, and was looking at coupes. What are the differences between the 05 and 06 g35 coupe? I wasn't sure if anything major was changed from 05 to 06. I'm currently looking at a 05 g35 coupe with 44,000 miles on it, automatic.

Thanks in advance

Welcome to NICO!

basically..there is literally no difference aside from a smaller spoiler.

However, why are you looking at an AT??? Gotta go MT or you will regret it..
