G coupes vs. other models

*This isn't a flame thread, or anything of the sort. Just an open discussion*

Am I the only one who isn't crazy about any of the other Infiniti models other than the coupes?

I love the G35c and G37c (I think the G35 looks better).

But the sedans look.. a bit long and not sporty enough for me (much like the BMW 5 series, which I don't really like).

and the SUVS.. I find overstyled (for lack of a better term).

I wish Infiniti would do something with the sedans that would be somewhere in between the coupes and the current sedans. Sort of like a sport sedan.

Again, this isn't a hate thread or anything, and if you own any of these vehicles I hope you don't feel offended. This is just MY opinion. And I'm curious as to what other people think.

No offense taken, you're entitled to your opinion. Some people prefer fart cannon exhaust on their G to make it sound like crap, while others try to keep the OEM look and enhance the VQ note. It's all about preference, your own personal taste on what you think looks good. When it comes to mods, it's your own interpretation of what the car should have looked like. IMHO the sedan on the top banner looks slightly better than the red coupe (not a fan of that bumper), I like them both but prefer the style on the sedan.

I don't get how the sedan looks too long... its the same wheel base as a coupe.

maybe its the styling that makes it look elongated, but with the technical specs aside, to me it looks longer

I think your a little weird LOL.


Anyways, I love Infiniti vehicles. The M and FX are sexy, and the QX is just a beast. I think a white FX50S may replace my G in a couple years. Good compromise between practicality and fun.

I love my sedan don't get me wrong. But I honestly like the rear end of the g35 coupe way more then my 05 sedan. My rear end is just so square and small, the coupes are much more aesthetically pleasing.

I like both for different reasons, but it's all aesthetic. As far as 'sportiness', they're the same car.

I don't like the early sedans, but newer ones are quite hot.
Older FX is very appealing as well, EX is just cute as a button, QX is ugly as fvck and new coupe is right up there in that category.

Winner is a G35 Coupe IMO, hands down.

the o3 sedans stock are hidious. the new sedans looks much better jus not a fan of the fish eye tail lights tho. the m's are nice but again infiniti seems to fail at the tail lights as well as the g37 coupe tails but the coupe is still the most sexy

I still think the G35 coupe is the best body style by far IMO. But if I had to choose from the new line up if I was in the market for a new Infiniti, it would definitely be the new M!!

As long as the ride looks clean, I've seen many sedans that would put most coupes to shame. Its amazing what a little work can do to a stock car.
