I'll express my thoughts compared to my 250 when it arrives.
the coupes are nice!! sedans are so so......

compared to the 250? sorry to say but the only thing thats better in the coupe compared to the 250 is speed and handling. i honestly think for a women. she should have stuck to the is250

Many of us considered the G35 and ruled it out in favor of a Lexus 350 or 250, and it usually comes down to value for your money. While the G35 will cost a little less, the total cost of ownership should be less for a Lexus, when you factor in such things as insurance, trade in value, and operating costs.

So in answer to your question "What makes the IS 350 better than the G35 Sedan?" is not unlike the answer to what makes the G35 better than the Yugo.

Just tell your SO you're going for substance and buy a Lexus.

the steering on the 07 G35 felt overly heavy, and the throttle/pedal seemed overly touchy. ride was ok, wouldn't say it's that much worse than the IS. the front seats have more space on the G35, but the rear headroom was worse than the IS. one thing i really like on the G35 is the navigation system and placement of it. seemed more intuitive to work with than the IS nav. G35 also felt like a bigger car than the IS.
