Still, the most amazing thing in the whole premiere was the masterpiece - A laser scripted ice sculpture with Infiniti logo on it. The thing must have been 3 ft tall and 3 ft wide. It's the first time I've seen anything like it. When the evening sun hits the ice carving it's just amazing to look at. I've attached some pictures of the ice sculpture. Trust me, this thing looks way better in person, it reflects the sun light like a crystal prism. I was told the ice sculpture was carved by a high power laser that created the frosted zone inside the ice block at precised depth and temperature.
You came back from a premiere and all your posting is a block of ice!? BOO!!
ha ham just playing. That things must've been massive!

There's a new post from a member that attended Atlantic Infiniti unveiling of
the new G37. He "DID" take his camera and took multipul shots of the car.
Cameras are so small there's no reason not to take one along everywhere.
This is like going on a date and leaving your Trojans at home.....HAHA

If back seat roominess is an important consideration, don't consider a coupe of any kind. Actually, even though the back seat will not be used much (my wife has a 2000 TL that we use when going out with others), we both tried the back seat of the G37 and found it better than expected (of course still cramped compared with a sedan).

^i guess i dont care too much since i wont be sitting back there and that'll give me an excuse not to be the DD because i cant fit people in my car.. the rear seat seemed worse than the g35c and also the 335 (in which i had no trouble in).
im 5'11 and i couldnt keep me head straight while sitting tightly in the seat

I don't think height matters as much as torso length. Someone 6'0" with long legs may be fine in the back since the legs are generally flexible, but someone else that is 6'0" with a long torso may not due to the inflexibility of the torso.

I saw the car for the second time in person today. The first time was at Stillen and it was a red sport model. This time I went to Peninsula Infiniti and they had one sport model in Diamond Graphite and it looked absolutely stunning.

according to my Canadian model line-up paper

60% of the G37 will be AT
40% will be MT
