When the 2005 Infiniti G35 Coupe first hit the market, Alfred Serrato found its style and lines to have a timeless look. With all of choices for a stylish daily driver, the G35 Coupe was a perfect match. More specifically, Serrato needed a car seat for his daughter at the time and really didn't want to purchase a sedan. Since that initial purchase, there have been a number of modifications, including the installation of a Vortech V-3 supercharger, powder coated and chromed HKS HIPERMAX III coilovers, as well as custom powder coated calipers with hand painted logos. In the future, Serrato is planning motor swap, a stereo revamp and the addition of air suspension.
