Default 2006 G35 Coupe (key & remote) question.

I just picked up a barely used, and fully loaded '06 G35 6MT coupe from a dealer. I was only given one key/remote, and I made the foolish assumption that the other set was in the package with the manual etc. Purchased from a dealer a few states away so going back to the dealer where I purchased it not likely.

I did some searching around and noticed that my remote is only a 3 button as opposed to the 4 button that I have seen which includes the trunk release. I contacted the dealer and he said that the '05 model had the trunk release, but the '06 does not. Is this true or is he just BS-ing me..? I can see this page offering it and advertised as a G35 '06 that includes the trunk release button.

http://www.carandtruckremotes.com/r644.html

As far as the key is concerned, what are my options..? I have heard terms about "smart keys", "chipped key", "immobilizer chip", "transponder chip". How do I know if my car uses one of these smart keys..? What are the benfits of these new keys..?

My last car was a 1999 so I am a little out of date with this kind of technology. Any help will be greatly appreciated...!

That is BS. I have an 06 6MT coupe and all mine have 4 buttons: Unlock, Lock, Trunk, and Panic. I was given three remotes and a valet key......hmmm, maybe one of my remotes works on your car! Where do you live

I don't think the dealer is holding out on you. Some people lose keys and get the generic key fobs programed for their car. Best bet is to go to an Infiniti dealer and open the wallet for new key fobs. Good luck and I hope you enjoy your G!

You can buy a blank key off of ebay and have the dealer or someone cut it for you, but only the dealer can program the key for you.

You can buy an extra remote off ebay and program it yourself.
