Not only does he fit - he's a big guy (145 lb) with arthritis in the shoulders and dysplacia in the hips, so I don't like him to jump - so the G35Coupe is PERFECT. The passenger seat moves forward, and he can step right onto the rear floor, then up onto the seat - no jumping required.
I have the "bucket" configuration of the back seats filled in with high density foam, then I laid a layer of "memory foam", then a heavyweight movers blanket - and the whole thing is held in place with 4 motorcycle ratchet-type tie-downs that go under the bottom of the back seat. (The service manager at my local Infiniti dealership thought I was nuts, but he helped me set it all up - and the back seat is just basically equipped to haul around a bullmastiff - I never use it for passengers).
For me, the G35C let me buy a sportscar, AND have Vito - a perfect car. I haven't yet found the perfect combo for a motorcycle, but I did for a year have a Harley Ultra, with Sidecar - but that's a long story.
To answer your question - yes, you can fit a very large dog in a G35C (probably not larger than 160LB, but that's nearly everything except Great Danes, and large Mastiffs).
