What, if anything, goes in the red square that I drawed?? Looks like there is something missing.

It's missing the Octane modification enhancer. Sometimes called the telcohancer valve. Without that, your car won't run on 87 octane.

OK, thought it was either the flux-capisitor or the bi-lateral connuter valve delay switch de-activator control module interface mother board....

Now, anybody else who hasn't started the morning with a cocktail and who actually owns a coupe??

But you have a Canadian version. Infiniti sends the cars that don't pass the final inspection, or are missing parts, to our Canadian friends.

BTW G_Whizz, I really like your avatar. Is that a snail or a croissant?

Does anyone really own a coupe? You'll see soon enough when Christine starts playing oldies and taking midnight drives on her own.

I'm sober, and that spot is empty on mine too. Nowhere in the owners manual does it make reference to it either.

I was curious as to what goes there too. My coupe has the same little empty space. Maybe the Skylines got that jack adaptor or a real jack or a little inflatable flat tire changer robot.

Gentlemen, and ladies (of course), after long hours of research and questing for an answer to this "dilemma" at hand I have found an educated answer, and it is this:

That empty space is used for one thing and one thing only and that is drugs.

It is elementary my fellow ballers, got something you need to smuggle? Say a kilo of your favorite narcotic? Or even some drug money to fulfill your narcotic purchasing needs. Once again another perfect example of how Infiniti is making life more convenient for us balling sentient beings that are known as G35 owners. This empty space is as convenient as the card holder in the roof in the driver side. I mean who needs a handle to hold on to in a serious accident? But, when a hot girl is giving you her number and she asks for a pen and something to write on... you reach for that card in that holder and then grab the pen in that big ol' empty cubby space and next thing you know you're in a Hampton Inn & Suites getting laid.

So you see ballers and ladies, with that empty space; Infiniti is just making the daily life a little easier... because... (quote me) Ballin' ain't easy, us coupe owners are just more efficient at it.

Thank You

I hope I have helped in anyway possible...

You just made my night!

What were they thinking with that card holder anyways? It has to be the most useless accessory I have ever seen in a car.

That's why I don't put the insurance card and registration in there. Safer in the glove box.

dont you worry SVT, i have checked lola's prodigious Badunk-a-dunk, and alas, have the same space. I suspect infiniti/nissan designed it for something JDM, like date rape drugs, or a in car karoke machine. that feature didnt make it across the pond, and so, we have a dead space.

I did the only logical thing. I wrote Infiniti and they responded.

It's for the boat anchor that the coupe initially was designed to have. Then Infiniti engineered 25 pounds out of the car and they no longer had to meet Coast Guard regulations for pleasure boats. (Which explains why the sedans don't have them.)

There are little clippy-thingies to hold something in that space!!! There has to be something that was meant to go there....But, yes, I did believe that your's didn't have it.

Maybe it's a puzzle, like putting a kid in a round room and telling him there is gold hidden in the corner.

Like your new sig SVT. Best of both worlds. I can't help noticing which one is at the front.
