Impressive numbers for the new G37 with 7 speed auto.

I still can't get over those BRUTAL wheels on the new G. What were they thinking?? I swear they look like plastic hubcaps.

Looks like the 7AT is the way to go on the 09's for straight line speed.

thanks...

Thanks for posting the link.
Those acceleration numbers are about what I was
expecting [ hoping for ] -
and combined with better fuel efficiency...
On my short list.

Now time for my test drive...

I notice the lateral acceleration was measured at .9g which is high compared to about .86g from most other magazines.

I hate to be Debbie Downer but all this great info doesn't mean diddley squat is they won't ship us the fargin cars so we can buy them.

Still, my thanks to the OP. I'll be sad to know my 6MT will be a tick or two slower than the 7AT but I still think I'll have more fun driving with 3 pedals.

I call BS. There's no way the heavier and slightly more powerful G37 sedan is that fast. No way All kidding aside, the 6MT will post similiar numbers. Give it time. I called this months ago.

So is the FX 50 no longer the quickest vehicle in the Infiniti lineup?

Impressive. 0-60. More impressive is the 1/4 mile trap speed.
