Not true. You can connect any audio device to the AUX ports and use them while driving. It is the video port that is disable when the car is in motion, for obvious reasons. Also, the iPod interface is fully integrated and can be controlled via the steering wheel controls.

If you ask me, that makes you even better than the C&D, Mototrend etc.
Driver Elite is an undercover Infiniti propaganda writer. He was paid to post this up.

J/K. Great write up.

Says him.. I'm thinking more muscular, well the rear that is. Everything is more defined and aggressive than the subtle G35 lines.

Ivory Pearl G37

The car drove well, felt solid. Not as quick as I had hoped, but when I drove the 335 I thought it was gonna feel quicker as well. As an overall package I liked it.
