Saw a red G37 and silver 335 (michigan plates, both of them) driving around.

Today around 11:15am I saw a red G37. I turn around to follow and have a look and notice a silver 335 with Michigan plates following the G37 with manufacturer plates.

So it could be magazine testers or Infiniti is still possibly doing some final comparisons between its direct competition? We shall see.

So as a person who saw it in person on the streets, what do you think?

I've even seen a '98 spec Accord Type-R on the 405 before, fully registered.
I have yet to see the G37, but from the pictures I've found on the net, the car doesn't look too promising

Well until you post a pic of yourself on this board, we'll assume you are a 450lb hermaphrodite.

Used to be, but Nissan pulled out of Torrance, CA so I wouldn't expect to see any Nissans in Southern California anymore.

I caught these pictures in early 2002 of the Maxima on the 110 freeway (near 405). http://www.brianv.net/newmaxima/

Got $1700 for selling those pictures to magazines. At the time no one had seen so much as a glimpse of anything that looked like a Maxima, not even that trash bag wrapped stuff we often see first.

Two weeks later caught the EVO in Irvine on the 405:

Only made a few hundred for that.

^ That's cool. What jerks were driving the Maxima? You should have rear ended them and gave them all concussions for being jacka$$es, slamming on the breaks like that on the highway.

Some Japanese guys, definitely from Japan. I work for a Japanese company and you can tell the ones that are from Japan versus the ones that live in the states.

There was a lot of talk about these pictures on freshalloy and maxima.org. I heard from this one guy that was a sales person at a Nissan dealer in the midwest that the manager of his dealer said that they got super busted for taking it out in the middle of the afternoon without disguise, etc. I don't know how he would've heard it so I pretty much thought it was BS.

Fortunately I had a friend in the car to take pictures while I drove. At the time I was in my 97 Supercharged Maxima so I think they were all a little shocked that they couldn't accelerate away from us.
