Infiniti makes the G and M
BMW makes 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 series

BMW makes 5 different car lines and the 3 series outsold the G by 40,000 in the USA in 2012. By your assessment of sales numbers, that would mean the masses have deemed the BMW 3 series the best car of the two.

I think they are both good cars for their intended purposes...I have no bias towards either one or people who buy either one for whatever reason. I drive a G right now and may drive a 335 or 535 next time...I like all kinds of cars. I'm even curious to check out the new Cadillac ATS.

Yea some folks just like to take what others say out of context and twist it up and then its like huh, did you not clearly read what I stated. Funny but hey people are entitled to their own opinions and can interpret things any how they'd like...

Dude, did you read my first post? I didn't single you out...I said "some people". You took it upon yourself to reply to my post like I directed it to you.

No problem...I was just stating what I've seen many times here...many people say most people buy BMW because of the name.

Good day...

I didnt say you singled me out, you said some people and "I felt" like responding to the post you made because I didnt agree with the point you were trying to make.

Someone please tell me if my overwhelming urge to click on the "Close Thread" button in the moderation menu for this thread is wrong. Is it just me or has this run it 's course? Overzealous? Dead serious.

In before the lock:

He stated:
“If your question is ‘could we do that’, I would say ‘yes’. All technologies developed for Nissan are available to Infiniti.”

COULD WE DO THAT, not WILL WE DO THAT!!

The 328 is such an excellent performer that it's hard to justify buying the 335. In fact, the 328 handles somewhat better than the 335 thanks to its lower weight and better weight distribution.

Ahh.. Too much misinformation here make me don't know where to attack. Oh boy don't BMW lovers a tough bunch to beat. Let's just give it peace...and we are all happy.
