Default 2005 Infiniti G35C 6MT- IS THIS NORMAL?

Is it normal for a 2005 G35 with 16K miles on it to already need a battery?

I had all Hondas prior to this, and I'm quite disappointed with having to replace a battery in a car I baby compared to the ones I drove the piss out of! Not to mention the service I have received from Infiniti- between the tow truck service they had contracted where the guy hit my door against my garage trying to coast it out, and the fact it took ALL DAY to determine it being a battery. I'll never buy another Infiniti again.

Okay A. the tow truck service should be to blame, not Inifinity.
B. Baby'ing a car has nothing to do with battery life.
C. It's not hard to check the battery yourself and save your self time and hassle
