Ok let me break this down:
My uncle wants to buy a 5 series bmw so he said he'll let me take over his payments on g37. so far 24k left(535 a month) out of total 40k.

Used 2010 G37 Sedan Type S
-Sports Package
-Navi
12,000 Miles
2 Accidents:
-Back Bumper needed to be replaced due to someone ramming from the back.
-lost control and ran over some concrete(no idea how..) but anyways Alignment got ****ed up, front bumper replaced, and suspension ****ed up. So he spent 3k to fix it and says its in good condition now.

but since I live about 2000 miles away I have to make a choice without even test driving the car. Its either I fly over and drive it back or I can just get a brand new 3.8 Rspec..
and I estimate monthly payment will be around 400$ a month and insurance a lot lower. and my uncle likes to mess around a lot so I'm supposing hes already done stupid **** like donuts and racing every weekend..


any suggestions? I have around 8k saved up.

 

Why don't you buy a used 37 coupe? Put that 8k down on a 25k car with low miles?

 

not to beat a dead horse, but g37 > genesis. G37 is a bit more expensive, but i feel is a better quality all around. The genesis has good options and offer many different engine configurations (sport package includes brembo brakes ect).

I agree with doggy, get a g37s coupe, looks evo at evo X GSR or an STI depending what your looking for. All 3 of these cars are a better buy then a Genesis imo

 

at the end of the day, you'll feel much better driving a G37 then a hyundai. plain and simple.

 

I'd go for the new Genesis. That way there will be no surprises. Hard telling what else your uncle might have screwed up on the G.

 

have you thought about a 370??? t

 

Hyundai=POS, don't ever buy it
G37=greatness, that's worth it

 

I know this is an infiniti forum, but I have to agree with everyone. The hyundai is just a cheap rip-off of the G. They are in a completely different class.

G is faster, more luxurious, and much more respected.

 

done.

 

ps have you driven the genesis coupe yet? i looked at it momentarily before buying my infiniti. the interior finish...barf. it's a little under par when it comes to straight line performance as well

 

I wish he would not call the G "Type S." He hit the car and messed up alignment and suspension? Dude! Can you see there's chassis damage here? Skip this car at all costs! Just my two cents.

 

+999999999... POS fit and finish

And an FYI for OP, it's S for sport package/model, this is not a Honda/Acura, type-S doesn't exists

 

It's pretty interesting that the Genesis Sedan is quite nice, refined, quiet and the fit & finish is pretty damn good. The Genesis Coupe looks like a small step up from the old Tiburon, and I've never seen so much cheap looking plastic in a vehichle that's supposed to be compared and cross-shopped w/ our Infinitis. If they can get the coupe in the same league as the sedan then the discussion would be interesting, as of now the G is clearly much better.

 

I would definitely avoid that car from your uncle. It is not a "Type S". Any Infiniti/Nissan fan knows that there's no "Type S" in that company's cars. The only special editions are "SE-R" and "Spec V/V Spec".

 

^In japan they call it the 370GT type S
