Review Up on Winding Road

You need to sign up (as easy as giving your email address) but they have the review of the G37 online.

www.windingroad.com

Mostly positive. Check it out. No numbers, just estimates (0-60 in 5.1).

Thank you very much muscarel for posting that up. To me it seems as though the only issue they had with the G37 was the 4WAS but everything else seemed like a +. I never thought of this... but for the G37 price point... shouldn't we be comparing the G37 with the BMW 328i instead? The base G37 should be around $35,000 and the base BMW 328i is around $35,000 also. It's interesting that the review pointed that out. The 5.1 sec is only an estimate so they probably didn't actually take it to a test track. It was a very nice review though. All these reviews Infiniti should use in their marketing... they all seem to be positive, except for Car and Driver's review on their website which is all over the place, hehe. The one in the magazine was better.

YIMBIE i told you if i stick around someone will come and give better 0-60 numbers LOL
i'll wait till i see members here running drags to find the real 1/4 mile.
also, maybe if we forget about 4was the car will be somewhat lighter....
hmm this article pumped me up a bit. and i like their honesty about the 335 being the best in class. this review sounds most reasonable so far to me

Those pictures to me really show off the beauty of the Infiniti G37.

i wouldnt go that far.. i'm keeping the chrome on the ob black g37. On my 2003 coupe it needed that large wing to give the rear end balance.. but i'm thinking it looks like an afterthought with the new g. I'm not dissing that wing for others.. just dont want it on mine. I'm from the "luxury->performance" crowd. Pics with the wing still look good in those pics above though.

I think the chrome is going to look really nice on the obsidian black. I wish there were pictures of it. I personally got the optional spoiler because I like it better than the chrome spoiler, which is still really nice.
