G37 Coupe or Maxima?
Im having troubling choosing which one I want to lease I really love both cars I know the Maxima fully loaded comes to 40,000 and the G37 Coupe AWD with premuim sport and navigation comes to around 45,000 Not a big difference but I like both.
Which car do you think is better and which one is nicer to drive?
The only thing i like about the infiniti is its 2 doors and has more horsepower.
If i could afford to have both I would. But what do you guys think is a better car that will be reliable to lease for 3 years?

well some advise, you're in a G37 forum lol thats your first answer....
BUT, i actually have the new maxima also and to be honest, go with the G37...You'll be much happier. The maxima is a great car but getting into the maxima and getting into the g37, night and day. G37 FTW!

I was comparing the 4 door maxima to the 4 door sedan g37. About the same horse power (290 on the maxima, 328 on the g37), but I've always had front wheel drive cars all my life, and I wanted a rear wheel drive sports car (ok sports sedan), and since I live in Texas I don't have to worry about horrible weather.
I sat in a maxima and wasn't too impressed. The rear seats didn't feel like there was much room; felt like more room on the g37 rear seats.
I went with the g37 and have zero regrets. It's a wonderful car, and I can't wait to get out of the break in period to really start enjoying it

No I dont have kids And no im not going to have passangers its mostly going to be me driving alone and If I do ever have a passanger most likely it will only be 1 person thats one reason I like the coupe because Im going to be driving by myself its smaller and it takes off faster than most 4 door cars. I drove the maxima I actually like it Its spacy in the front but your right the leg room is kind of tight.
Most likely Ill go with the G coupe and eventually get a maxima when I have a family because its stupid to have all those seats when Nobody is ever going to be in my car its just going to be me driving alone 95 percent of the time.
Alot of you guys said that the G is nicer to drive the maxima I never drove a G37 and the maxima is nice to me so i can imagine what the drive is going to feel like.

I have owned a 93, 00, and 2002 6 speed maxima I am a maxima lover. I hated the 6th gen though, but the new one's body style is nice. I test drove the maxima and it was a nice car but again its not a G37. If the maxima was price lower maybe but the that's why I went with the G instead of the max, oh and the Max doesnt have a manual anymore.

I also never owned front wheel drive cars atleast with the G I get awd. And the Manual transmission doesnt matter to me because I was never taugh how to drive Stick because of city driving automatic is better for me.
And We own 4 cars If i get a coupe I can still probably fit all of them in my driveway

wow, is a fully loaded Maxima really that expensive? are those numbers MSRP or actual quoted purchase prices? because my G37 coupe (prem, nav sport...no awd) came to about 47k.
problem is you're comparing apples to oranges. one is a family lux car...the other a sports coupe. when it comes to things like that...you need to see whats better for YOU (in terms of size and such). both cars are equally reliable..however the G will cost you more in the long run (gas, services, etc), AWD will def be a benefit (but summer tires defeat the purpose)

Counterpoint, i just traded my 2009 G37 convertible for a 2011 fully loaded maxima and dont miss the G at all. Fit and finish are up to par with the G, horsepwer good although not rear wheel drive.
