I can just see a bunch of Infiniti engineers sitting around, watching the performance data of the 335i roll in and look at each other with that "oh fugg" look on their faces.
The G35 was always faster than the 3 series in the past... a big selling point. That's very valuable to the branding of the G35. They want that back, or at least similar performance. BMW really smashed it out of the park with the 335i, performance wise. It's better than the current M3. Dayum.

On another note, many owners are complaining because they want better fuel efficiency and increasing displacement isn't going to do it. 306HP makes this car pretty damn fast, far more than we really need on the streets. I love my 07 sedan and I am happy with the 3.5L.

I do agree, or atleast believe, that the 3.7 liter will become an option. But replacing the VQ35HR makes no sense at all.
