The 2007 G35 Sedan can do 13.8 @ 103 mph...
But I have a feeling its just this particular test that will yield such un-inspiring results.
Ii predict 13.5 @ 104 max...

but bmw 335 coupe will outperform it in speed...
but g37 looks better
maybe in 2009 when I,m ready I will trade my g35
for g37
they need to get the weight down..

For those of you looking for more of a pure performance car, stop wasting your time with the G35/37 and go get yourself a 350Z, or the upcoming 370Z, which will have the same engine as the G37 but will weigh much less.
The G37 is not intended to be a "sports car"... it's a luxury GT/coupe.

Just for reference on people doing it better then car and driver.....
Car and driver hit 4.8 0-60 i n the 335I, no other average joe can really beat that by much.
I agree, 350z 2007 is a monster now, wait until it gets the 3.7..........All it needs now is a facelift. Only about a million 350z driving right now which look the same....Its like the mustang scenario.
