Drove the G37 today

My friend is a manager at an infiniti dealer and he told me they had one for a day. I only drove it around the block but i am not a fan of the out side! the car felt small but i am not a coupe fan. I love the breaks they are great!!! the engine sound is to die for but over all nice car for the $$

I can't stand the clock in Infinitis. Also, their interior trim looks like crap.

I personally thought the clock was classy. Personal opinions differ.

I think the g37 is going to be one hot ride, especially for the price. Now only if it would lose about 300lbs then maybe I'd consider it.

..and it's brakes not breaks. Jeez- did BMW drivers go to school or were they just out in the parking lot doing donuts? (not doughnuts)

Also, BMW fans shouldn't rag on what they think is a cheap interior, especially if they hadn't seen it yet! BMW interiors are nothing to crow about.

I wish i could combine qualities of the 335 and G37, like the interior, electronics, VLSD, etc. I prefer N/A engines over FI if they're done well. I believe the G37 engine will be sweet with a quicker VVT than BMW. I prefer the overall package of the 335 but will drive the G37 just in case...
