Complaints/Negatives about the G37
Im about to get myself one, wondering if you guys have any complaints/negatives, such as certain parts in the car making noise, things not working, etc. If you do, please explain.

I've gotten my first rattle after 11,000 miles. It's coming from somewhere in the gauge cluster. Happens only when it's really cold outside and goes away after it warms up. Also, noticed my exhaust rattles like crazy when the car is warming up in the cold. There is also the infamous seatbelt rattle. Other than that, the car has been golden. Huge improvements over the G35C in almost every single way.

I would say the startup noises annoy me the most. I had the muffler replaced, but the other noises are still around. Next after that would be the tranny whine, mild but still there. In my opinion, I think the transmission is too weak for this engine. I would say the parts should be bolstered to take more spirited driving. Windows occasionaly make a moan when going up or down after a rainy day. The rattles haven't popped up yet. I am coming from an often rattling 2004 Accord V6, so this car is very quiet in comparison. I'm still happy with my purchase (lease)...

I've never owned a coupe before so the G37 may be typical, but the rearview from the driver's seat sucks for parking (you can't see anything).
Also, the car is a bit too wide, downtown parking garages don't give much width space (they're trying to cram in as many spots as possible). This isn't a big issue, but the rearview is IMO.

Auto transmission should have been a 6 speed. I've got pretty bad rattles in my door panel during even low-mid level music. Going to have the dealer fix it eventually. Pretty minor stuff, over all its been an awesome car.

I only have a 1,000 miles, no rattles yet.
Here are my complaints:
1. location of side mirrors control is not ideal.
2. the Homelink button not illuminated at night, so you have to feel for it.
3. Smaller trunk space than my G35C, I have to remove my #1 Driver in order to fit in the trunk.

My only complaint is that when lowering the front windows for a few days after washing the car or a rain, they have water on the outside after raising them. I am not sure if some water leaks down past the outer gasket and takes a few days to evaporate or if the gasket retains the water for a few days. In either event, I have to clean the outside each time after lowering and raising the windows for a few days after washing or a rain. Since I have to lower the front driver's window to access the parking gate control where I work, this has become a slight annoyance.
