You got to be kidding me.. they said g37 could and will beat the 335i.. so much typed up.. Body curb weight hella heavy. and pretty much similiar engine block compare to 335i beside one is inline6 n they other is a v6. 6-spd man w/OD @ 330 hp on top end model (it lost about 13 % percent due to the powertrain application)
PRice is about 45K out the door with fully opt. Infinti does not even offer Full service Warranty.. Avg oil change for new high end car is about 150 to 300 at the Dealership. BMW IS free.. Infiniti = $$$ . Hell no i would not buy it..I did not want to test it out.. It is a sorry car.

G37 is a heavy pig, at 45k it's not a great value anymore, for a 330hp car is quite slow and the looks aren't great either.

So, G37

Infiniti has some work to do in the "sports" division of their cars.

That "studio on wheels" that they brag about? Horrible. Logic7 in the 3 has deeper fuller cleaner sound.

You guys crack me up.

It was surprisingly odd to me that the G37's 330hp felt no different than the G35's previous horsepower figure. I wasn't impressed at all.

Very understandable. I had the same experience when I test drove an E46 M3 compared to my 350z. I thought the 30hp would make a substantial difference but not as much as I had hoped.

Acura made the NSX. Nissan is coming out with the GT-R. Infiniti is working on a sports car as well - likely mechanically similar to the GT-R. Even so, the initial statement was a little ridiculous.

this is why i also don't buy all the hype for the new Nissan GT-R, i'm sure it will be great but not nearly as great as they are trying to purport.

Okay, THIS is funny. Their studio on wheels blows the 3 series audio out of the water easily. You can read any audiophile magazine article that has heard it... I read a couple when looking at the car.

1. The interior is nicer than a 3 series (yes I know it has small back seats but from what I bought does it look like I care?)
2. It is not sluggish at all, not from numbers like you all apparently judge everything by, but by actual feel after driving it.
3. For a similarly spec'd car, it is about 5-8K less than a 335.

Hell, we all know BMW is better, but give the cheaper car it's props.
(And oil changes don't cost over $100 for it either... where did you get $300?)
