I have driven 2 G35's and wasn't impressed with either of them. I have not had the chance to drive a G37 yet, but seeing how underwhelmed I was with previous models dynamics, I am in no hurry to drive the new one. I will when I get a chance just to report back to you.

Also, I am not sure what you meant about the cheap plastics of the BMW interior. The Infiniti interior was very disappointing, IMO. It was very much a glorified Nissan interior, which isn't bad, but not up to BMW standards. I personally prefer European luxury over Japanese luxury anyday. Plenty of cheap plastic throughout in the Infiniti as well and very generic looking guages, but whatever. It sounds like you are big into the technology of the G37, which I could care less about. Hey, at least you have a better stereo, nav system, and backup camera (which is friggin worthless in a car).

Enjoy the dime-a-dozen, not quite BMW for $8,000 less.

I don't think they are cheap. Both cars are expensive if you ask me. I just happen to prefer the Bimmer, no big deal.

I do like the look of the original G-35 though. For some reason it looks a little more mean or something. I think the original design still looks good and was ahead of it's time.

Infiniti makes good cars, so does Nissan for that matter. There is just something about the overall driving experience in a BMW for me that I don't get when driving other comparable sedans or coupes and it is not just the badge.

In 2003, I was having problems with my first X5 (2001 4.4i) so I decided to sell it for a new suv that looked AMAZING on paper. The Infiniti FX45. It was FAST, inexpensive, had all sorts of gadgets, and technically SOOOO advanced.

I bought it, and one month later, I HATED it. It was so boring and bland. Had no personality. I missed my X, desperatly. I sold it 8 months later at a huge loss and went back to the X5. And was happy as a clam again.

Don't make the same mistake I did. Infiniti's are great on paper, but not so great after you have owned an X.
