To further answer this question. I'm all about performance and the G just wasn't as good as its German counter parts and no where near as good as my 370Z for the long haul the G looks great aged very well but for performance not as fast as a 335i the after market community is ok but not what it should be etc etc. I could go on for hours but hey I still own mine but not for long.

Man this thread is old! I'd gladly buy my car again. I love the style, the creature features, the compliments I get and my ultimate favorite feature is the exhaust note with my mods. It cant be beat, not for me at least. All that being said, I'll probably get the Q60 Red Sport in a year or two when this one is paid off. I LOVE the new body.

Hell yes I would. It may not be the fastest car out there but even stock it is an absolute blast to drive on a tight twisty back road. Worth every penny....

Me 3.
More interested in long term value, while having plenty of fun with my 6MT.

I took my '09 G37 into the dealership to get the XM radio looked at, it breaks up too much for me. They can't find anything wrong with it. Eight years old and all they can offer is an diff oil change, cabin filter, or ?? Only 64K miles on it, I'd buy it again!

While mine's in the shop, I have a loaner 2016 G50 3.0 Turbo with 7,500 miles on it (the 300 HP /295 torque model) in my garage right now - and yeah, it's nice. Doesn't seem as solid on the road as the G37 but I'm sure it takes getting used to. It's base trim, window sticker in the glove box says $41,900. That's just too much $$, but wow, what a technological advance from 2009. The turbo broke the rear tires loose in 2nd gear on a dry road.

Never again. They don't stand behind there product. Bought my 09 new, garage kept. Less then 8 years old & 53,xxx miles on it & the dash is cracking all over. If that is what Nissan/Infinity thinks quality is, they can keep there cars. The more I research it, the bigger the problem seems to be. First time Infinity owner & last

Sorry man - but this isn't uncommon. I see what you're saying though, I'd be frustrated beyond hell.

Should talk to the guy who had his G catch fire

Oil gasket has been fixed so, if the CSC is the only other known issue AND we already have a permanent aftermarket fix, I'd say we have a pretty amazing car. Only known issue I know of without a real fix is the cracking and bulging dash.

Isn't this less prevalent in 2011+ models? Thought some where along the line they upgraded.

Sorry to hear that, but all cars have their issues. The same car can be great for someone and be a lemon for someone else. You are never going to find a perfect one. I've had VCM V6 powered Honda And Acura vehicles that some are terrible with vibrations/oil fouling of plugs every 10k miles and some are great. Had a brand new Acura RDX that had rear suspension sounds on bumps that not even a 10 yr old car should have, no fix at the time.. AC/vent motor chirping sounds, this was all at only 2 months old. in my last 5 years of owning G coupes.. they have been among best cars I've ever owned. Other than a premature front brake issue that Consumer affairs took care of.

True.. but for the price they offer alot... When I compared BMW/Mercedes coupes they were alot more $$ for the same features.. The maintenance, like services or brake jobs.. far more $$ on the BWM/Benz, they will cost you. Performance matters, but have to look at the full picture, maintenance costs/reliability.. which G usually better in my experience of owning these cars over the years.

So I am on my second G..My first was an 08 sport coupe.Asgard grey.Now sitting on a 13 xs coupe black..I feel in love with the G family as soon as I drove a 05 G35 coupe.I was hooked..I have had no issues with either of my G,s.Even in its aged long in the tooth body style it's still stupidly sexy.IMO..I will be keeping my xs coupe and am thinking of the red sport coupe next.Took the red sport coupe out today and OMFG,the 400 hp and 350 torque eas beautiful.Just waiting a few yrs to get bugs worked out if any..
