The I35 has a steering wheel heater, I'd be willing to bet that they will use the same steering wheel.

RASHINBAN.

I'm sure that they will have a standard cog box as well as your choice of slush box or paddle shifter. (After all this is a Skyline and it is aimed right for the 3 Series BMW)

I'd imagine a steering wheel heater is a coil inside the wheel, so you'd have to get a new one, but thats just a guess.

but your avatar says you live in Florida....What the hell you need a heater for??

ok, that excuse is good enough.

you might want to check out a local motorcycle shop, but not a dirt bike shop. Heated grips are pretty popular on touring bikes in cold areas.
They won't fit your steering wheel, but you may be able to figure a way to make it work for you.
no idea how much they cost.

here's a pic of heated grips:

haha guess what i got em already i bought them from woodbridge motorsports in jersey cost me umm i forgot that was a while ago anyway i got it on my 98 rsv mille i put them on last winter when we all whole bunch of grown guys would play football in this big field every sunday and the thing is it was suppose to be some sort of toughmen football so anyway all the harley guys would bust out their harleys on the cold weekends put on mad layers of clothing and head on out to the park to show i guess that they not that old and still got the spirit from being young or whatever ok i'm babbling and i'm sure you dont want to hear all this crap so sorry
umm back to the heated grips i didnt know it worked the same i figured it used whatever massagers have in them to heat it up well come to think about it i guess it could only be that coil

didnt someone say it was the i30 that had it any more details on this let me know

The latest news I read on the G35 is that it is the replacement for the G20 and it is based on the Nissan Skyline in Japan. It will have 6-speed manual transmission and can crank up to 280 hp (I35 is at 260 hp).

I personally hate the looks of the new G35. The rear-end is somewhat like the Acura 3.2 Coupe and the front-end is a dim shadow look of Porsche or what not. Nevertheless, the combinations of the front- and rear-end on the car just look aweful.

I don't know what you guys think but I like the looks of the I35 Sport. I hope the production G35 will be somewhat like the I35 with all the goodies, yes including HEATED STEERING WHEEL or COOLER STEERING WHEEL, only then I see the G35 is a "must get car" otherwise, G20 is still considered legendary.

First impression is key.

Cheers.

Heres a pic of the new Primera (as it will be released in Europe) Kind a looks like the pics at the start of this topic. Not the new Skyline (G35) as someone claimed.

damn that looks UGLY, reminds me of an echo :apuke:

------

my mom has a steering wheel heater on her X5, it's sweet in the winter. When it's cold, and you put on the heater, the heated seats and the steering wheel heater at the same time... it's so toasty, you never wanna get out of the car
I'm not sure if my dad's XJR or SL500 has a steering wheel heater, they should, but i don't think they do

I've used the steering wheel heater in the summer sometimes too, so even if you do live south you might use it. My hands get cold easily, it was like 75 and i was in shorts and a polo-T at night, i got cold

No joke, it seems to take forever for our cars to cool off down here in Texas.

ive heard that the nissan 350z is gonna be around 260hp .. wouldnt it be kinda weird if the G35 pushes more hp then the sports car NIssan 350Z? maybe not considering that other bigger sedans have more hp then smaller cars.. but whatever

i think that the steering wheel heater is for the I35 . but that should be standard in every car.. just cause its that cool

anyway i dont like the g35 too wierdly misshaped.. dont kno doesnt apeal to me .. but what u gonna do? cant have everything

I'd probably end up going with the Z b/c it will be affordable and alot faster than the G35 b/c I know its going to be at least 3300lbs or so. I bet with a little kit on it, it wouldn't look so bad.
