As we don't all have enough pictures but I couldn't resist posting and sharing with you all the car I tested.

 

Man, those non-functional bottom side grills/vents are really irritating me.

 

Good looking? haha. For 45k, you can get the M35 or even the M45.



IMHO - Looks as bad in real life as it does in the pics. One of my guy friend even said it when we saw this blue G37. "What? you what that car? Your car looks better then this one".

 

Ditto here as well. Scoops that aren't really scoops and inlets that aren't really inlets look cheesy-squared. I can only assume that some astute aftermarket vendor will come out with replacement grills that are really grills, either to serve as brake cooling or for fresh air to intake.

 

I had a test drive today. As luck would have it I ran up against an M3. Man, that guy kick my a$$. I wish Infiniti would make a more powerful engine.

 

Haha, unless you have a need to be put in your place, definitely don't be trying to take any M3's E46 or newer. Not sure why you would think any stock G would be capable of taking that car, save that for the GT-R. That reminds me of when I was driving an S500 and as luck would have it the car that pulls up next to me is an S55 AMG, haha.

 

id put some money on it that the g would take the m3 on a roll just like it takes the 335i on a role

 

Okay, that color is probably the second most girly color I can think of next to Hello Kitty pink.

 

I personally would buy a M35 for that kind of money, for sure. The front looks like it is smiling at me, to girly not aggressive enough.

 

Even if prices are similar on M35 & 45 they're completely different cars. Sport coupe versus large 4 door sedan.

I don't think you can touch a 45 for that kind of money either.

 

Things I didn't like
(1) hood was higher in height than G35
(2) Exhaust note lower inside cabin though salesman said in actuality it's louder outside
(3) Rims are hideous
(4) still use Bridgestone Potenza RE050A
(5) suspension tighter but still bouncy feeling

 

Im getting the G37 coupe and keeping my current fleet an M45 sport (2006) and 2003 G35 coupe.

If everyone agreed which car looked best we all would drive the same car perhaps<G>.

I agree, the exterior is just ok on the new G37 (front view is better than ok but side and rear view are just ok to me), however the ride, and handling and features along with reliability from my 8 Infinitis owned so far, make this a winner to me.

 

For an exhaust note comparison of the G35 and G37, check http://g35driver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=163316

The G37 is clearly louder. It appears to be lower inside the cabin due to the G37s improved sound deadening material (i.e., the "refinement"). You'll probably hear less road noise as result too.

 

Just a reminder, make sure you open the windows when you listen to the exhaust. They upgraded the sound dampening in the G37 to make it a more quite ride. Remember it is a luxury coupe.

I just say that someone already said this....lol

Damm, just realized that was the dealer where I bought my M35x, too bad the internet manager I dealt with just left for their Mercedes dealership. I want to go test drive it!
