sorry if this is a repost, and this does apply to this forum cuz it will help us speculate if the 2009 g sedan will be a g37 or a g35...http://www.motortrend.com/features/a...x35/index.html

 

i thought they already said the 3.7 will not fit in the G35 sedan engine bay?

 

You two sure dont read much.

of course i've read that, but hey, they came out with the ex35 here, then the ex37 there like a month later...sooo obviously they plan on using the 3.5 liter engine for at least the next few years in the ex35, so it def. is possible the sedan stays with the 3.5 liter a couple more years...i think theres def. a chance it stays 3.5 honestly because the 3.7 liter will add weight, and add cost, so the price of the sedan will rise, and the big selling point on the g35 is its price...plus, i mean its just a sedan, it competes wonderfully with its competition, the 3.7 liter engine wont even boost performance cuz its gona add weight with it, plus i think they want the coupe to be the better performance machine...its all speculation, we dont know what will happen, but i dont think the 2009 sedan will DEFINITELY be a g37

 

the 3.5 engine is so widely used..helps cut costs down. Plus as mentioned earlier...the extra 30 hp wont do much for the extra weight.

 

It might also be the case that it would require an extra factory be converted to build the 3.7. So, leave it where the performance numbers do the most good.

Also, if you want a larger engine in a sedan, there is the M45

 

The 3.7 does NOT weight much more then the 3.5
All the extra weight on the coupe is from extra bracing
