Its like an SC430 with more rear legroom, at probably ½ the price.

When will the sedan be arriving?

The new automatic is even more welcome than the new engine. One of TrueDelta’s panel members recently dumped a G37 coupe because the five-speed automatic resulted in dismal highway fuel economy.

God, I love Infiniti.

G37 Sedan is pure sex. Guess I have to upgrade my G35.

They should replace the “37″ on the convertible with a “6″ because this thing resembles the Pontiac

The G37 was already a pig, inexplicably heavier than the 4-door G35 (making it slower off the line). Making it a hard-top convertible won’t help a bit. Has metrosexual written all over it.

The real star here is the G37 sedan. Likely to be noticeably faster than the coupe, probably cheaper, and better looking, too.

I’m with Phil on this one. It’s way too Lexus-like for me in its generic Japanese styling.

In this price range the 3-series PRHT is still the king.

Looks like a Solara from the side. I almost forgot the thing had back seats when it was coupe, but now they’re really in your face.

I agree with Brian E. though; I’ll wait until more pictures arrive before I pass judgement.

Just doesn’t have the same cobbled together from the parts bin chic as the CTS wagon.

Yikes. Femme *and* bloated. Is that convertible built on a borrowed and stretched SC430 from the Toyota store?

Didn’t they redo the VQ series engine for this one, like 80% change, new metallurgy, new injection blah blah blah?

Edit:
Ah, guess I should search. that was the HR version of the VQ series. 10% better fuel economy

Infiniti has tried to play Terminix to BMW’s Bavarian Cockroach 3-Series.

But will we see any G37s as Truly Nolen cars?

Brian E:
AWD is also finally coming to the G coupe, which is welcome news to those of us who live where it actually freezes for several months out of the year.

Poor man’s GT-R! Add twin turbos and off you go.

I think the G convertible will sell on style alone for some buyers. That said, I’ll wait for more pictures (top up AND down) before passing judgement. The 3-series convertible is nice from some angles and dreadfully awkward from others.
