2010 Infiniti G37S journey 20th Anniversary Edition

Why are you comparing American V8 sedans to a G37?
They are very different cars that serve very different purposes.
Performance isn't always the deciding factor in many car purchases...but even so, the new Mustang 5.0 runs 12.8, which is a full second quicker than the G37 in a straight line, and is also cheaper...but doesn't necessarily mean its a better car.
Nissan didn't build the G37 to be a drag race monster, in fact American V8's aren't even their competition. Nissan's press release on the G37 suggests they rival other mid sized Japanese and German sedans like the 3 series.

StonedCL is a known idiot around here and he made those comments to try and make personal jabs at me. Notice he didn't do it with anyone else who said they didnt like the 2nd gen G coupe.

He just creates this clustercrap every time he makes threads, but he continues to do so. Good for him.

body kit looks horrible...
esp the rear valance panel and how it works with the exhaust... gee, can't tell that's an add-on.

I like the G37 but they over did it with the added body pieces, especially the front lip. Looks like Jay Leno's chin.

You ever notice how the people that Talk the most smack are the people that have 1000's of posts on a Car Forum of a car that they dont even own.. Imagine how many post these guy talking all the smack have on other forums..
How much time do u have to spend in front of a computer to have as many posts as they do.. Most there posts are attacking others for there shortcommings..
None of these people that talk all this smack ever wanna meet me in person...
They all know where I work I even would come to them in Cali, I need a vacation.. But no deal!

10 cars a months at 12 months is 120 cars a years...and dec/jan are usually dead...
Say you get a $100 mini deal out of each car your looking at $12k...this doesnt include any incentives or spins that might be offered at the time, but those are small bonuses and dont offset your income that greatly...
At his point in time, people arent buying cars as they have in the past, even your post count has gone up because you say you are sitting around doing nothing in your dealer. So, I can't imagine that many cars are being sold with that much profit built in. Maybe a couple $2-300 dollar sales here or there. Lucky to grab a rare $500-1000 for someone who just walks in and pays sticker...
Yeah, I'm just not seeing anything worth bragging about.

The instant he starts realizing he is a moron he starts up with this crap. And recently he has switched over to try the newer e-thug tactics. Hell, I've told you where you can find me.
You try and call us out for being on here posting...yet here you are, posting, getting into arguments, making threats, showing us how bad at you are at grammar, and bashing America and Americans...even though you live here.
Wake up and realize just how sad YOU are compared to everyone you are trying to call a loser.

All I am saying is if you have a personality and are good with people (in real life not make belive forums) you can make good money selling cars.. I hardley blow a car out our dealer is a high grossing dealer , we would rather sell one car and make $3000 then sell 10 and make $300 each car.. I am avergeing about 2500 a car and make 24% or that and 5% on the back and salery ($200 a week) and unit bonuses $500 for 10 and $100 after

Also. I'm not going to hunt for it. But I'm pretty sure I remember you saying made about half that number last year.
Gotta love fake ballers.

OK guys... let's knock it off here. There was already a warning a couple pages back... things were good but now they're back where they were... so put it back on track or temp bans shall come. Hating on the car is fine... but keep the name calling and personal attacks out of it...

I'm amazed that Nissan would even show that hideous aero kit in public. Obviously I like the look of the G37 but this kit ruins every single line on the car. Now the red leather is nice and though I'd never get wood trim in a car, the red maple looks really nice in person. The ridiculous pricing really seals the deal for this car. I know that its absolutely loaded (with 4WS that you can't even order anymore) but I really don't want/need those extras. I paid $39k for my 2010 G37S with nav, sport, and premium and I think at that price there really is no competition in this class....

G37s = Really nice car without the kit.
Great bang for the buck at 39K.
With the kit =
@50K =
Oh btw... Genesis Coupe = boy racer. imo of course.

Why are you comparing American V8 sedans to a G37?
They are very different cars that serve very different purposes.
Performance isn't always the deciding factor in many car purchases...but even so, the new Mustang 5.0 runs 12.8, which is a full second quicker than the G37 in a straight line, and is also cheaper...but doesn't necessarily mean its a better car.
Nissan didn't build the G37 to be a drag race monster, in fact American V8's aren't even their competition. Nissan's press release on the G37 suggests they rival other mid sized Japanese and German sedans like the 3 series.

You have to admit there's quite a bit of market overlap between the Ford and the Infiniti. Ford just has the wontons to put DOHC V8's in a sport coupe that isn't $58k to start, or at all if you're the Japanese or Koreans.

Agreed. Too many cheesy and amaturish design cues. Not sure what they were thinking with some of that if they were hoping to be taken more seriously by GT coupe buyers.
