Michael Ramos' 2005 Infiniti G35 Sedan started out as a fun and functional Daily Driver. With aftermarket bolt-ons and suspension upgrades, this car performs well in auto cross and canyon running. After seeking more run with the big boys, Michael had the engine built and the twin turbos. Currently, the G35 is making 466whp @ 7.5lbs boost. Michael wanted to be able to keep up with the Nissan Skyline GT-R, Audi R8 and the like.
Michael has always kept his G35 in pristine condition. Admiring the lines and over appeal of the G35, he wanted to give his car a facelife. The front bumper and trunk are custom fabricated and one-of-a-kind, meaning you will not see these specific parts anywhere else! The paint is also a custom House of Kolor pearl and only Michael's G35 is painted with this color.
Michael attends and competes at multiple auto cross events. He is truly passionate and loves what he does and the G35 is what he was looking for - a fast functional but unique car.
