in the July issue, the g35 sedan and nissan maxima were recommend. the lincoln, caddy, and .. trying to remember.. lexus? weren't recommended.

on a diff list, the g35 was listed as 11th on list of sport luxury sedans. bmw was 1. but bmw wasn't recommended by cr

 

I like generally like CR but in this case they missed the point.. they were comparing entry-luxury cars and sports-sedans. They seemed to have two main issues with the G:
- tendency to oversteer and break the back-end
- poor ergonomics.

These two dropped the G down. However, imho, people who are looking at the G are typically not looking at say the ES300. They might look at IS300 but its a much smaller car, making impractical for a lot of folks like me, who need the space.
