Infiniti G37 Coupe


Recently Infiniti has replaced the previous G35 with the new G37. Well you might be wondering "why is it now called the G37?". Well the number has all to do with the type of engine. The previous G35 had a 3.5L V6 now the G37 has a 3.7L V6. Well 0.2L can make a big difference in the output of the motor. This increased the horsepower from 280 to 330hp! Along with its improvements under the hood, I personally think that Infiniti managed to improve dramatically the exterior of the car as well. I know that it might not look very different from the older model but what makes the difference here is how the G37 looks much smoother than the G35. The G35 was too "boxy", it had only straight lines, and now Infiniti has fixed those mistakes with making the cars lines much smoother and rounder in general. This car was acknowledged for not exactly out-running but actually out-lasting BMW's new 335i Coupe. Both cars were taken to their limits and until the BMW could not go any longer while the Infiniti was still in real good shape (Here is the whole story). Well this comes to show at least some car companies are making improvements to their previous models and hopefully other car companies will learn from Infiniti.

For durability, a Japanese car will beat out everything else. Performance wise, they are not so bad either... about the G37 coupe, I think the rear end of it is a bit too un-boxy for that aggressive look.

I think that the older model was too boxy...this model is much better. But i do agree with you, it could be improved if it was a bit more boxy.
