exactly wait till you start seeing some fixed up G37. Tinted windows, maybe rims but the rims look tight already. lowered a bodykit maybe. Then will be talking business. I compared the coupe to the sedan would take the coupe anyday rims look better better braking and steering and comfort is a step up over the sedan. performance is the same depending on the transmission. I test drove them back to back and drove a 335i the G37 has better stability than both cars. Also test drive a 6MT. you will difinitely know the difference.

I think the 07 sedan looks great, a huge improvement over the previous generation. I think I will also like the G37 once I see it. I'm happy with my G35 coupe.

For those lucky enough to remember the introduction of the 03 G35 Coupe, the hype now is nothing in comparison to the frenzy then. Nobody can mistaken the G37 for anything other than a newer version of the G35 Coupe. It took almost 2 years for the first series to cool off enough for serious discounts. The 07 G35 sedan was discounting in less than 6 months. I'm not crazy about the G37 as it's not realistic to improve on the original design. Let the future sales over the long term determine it's popularity.

Isn't that the same thing with anything thats the newer version. The G35 was the newer version of the G20. Really dont get where your coming from.

The G35 is a completely different car is every respect to the FWD G20. Infiniti had decided to keep all their models as rwd only. The G37 is a freshened up and restyled G35 Coupe.

well thats good that they refreshed the G35 than make an entirely new one. To me it keeps it as the next generation. I still like the G35 but when compared to the G37 you can see its faults. The new G37 is more aggressive has a wider stance is sleeker and dont forget about the new interior which is a huge step in comfort and technology. Now it looks like a luxury sport coupe and not a cousin to the 350z.

If you think about it, the G35 coupe looked completely different from the G35 sedan in the previous generation. Now that the G37 literally looks like a G35 with two less doors, the styling disparities between the two aren't as wide...although those 19"s are gorgeous.

I sat in one in the showroom when I bought my car. Beautiful car, the interior is practically identical to the one in ours. In typical coupe fashion, the car is very small. My head hit the roof if I sat straight up and I'm 5'11". I still think its a wonderful car, but if you're over 6 ft, you may find it to be way too small.

I haven't driven one and I don't think I will. I feel guilty, as if I'm wasting the salesman's time since I have no desire of actually purchasing one. Maybe when I go get my first oil change at the dealer, I may ask to drive one while I wait.

I hope you were talking about the back seats? Im 6"3 and with the seat bottom all the way to the floor, I had way more room than I even needed. If you hit youre head, you obviously didnt adjust the seat correctly. I peeped the G37 at the dealer, and goddamn its a beautiful car. If I had the money for trade in, theres no way I could hold out...

are you kidding? the g35 is a mix of smooth and aggressive clean styling. it looks like a sports car and has amazing lines. the g37 looks like a luxury car and nothing less. the lines are feminine and wtf is up with that chrome trunk lip. i was hoping for a more raw design for the new g coupe.

The chrome lip is on the sedan to. you can option for the rear spoiler which I think it makes it look a whole lot better. I would personally get the rear spoiler on the new coupe. I wasnt feeling the spoiler on the G35 coupe though. I think they made the spoiler to big on the last generation.

We're not jealous of the new car, we're just saying like it is. I remember when the concept came out. I was ready to trade my 06 cope right there. Then when the "new" design came out. I was like wtf did they do?

You can say the G37 looks like the Concept, but the concept had more "WOW" facotor to it. Less BUBBLY and LESS CURVY. The concept was sleek and yeah, everyone was drooling over it.

NO ONE WAS HATING ON THE CONCEPT. Because it was HOT. The G37, IS NOT.
