I have turned to the dark side, bought a G37:)

And it drives like on a rail, took me few months to decide between this beast and the IS350C, finally gave up on the IS350C because it is too docile. As I'd put it:

G37C = Orgasm
IS350C = Foreplay

Pic here:

STFU troll before I roll out to Clemson and smack you in the mouth GTFO of his thread if you don't have anything positive to say.

Congrats on the ride! I can't argue with your choice. Use it in good health.

Thank guys for good words, love my fellow acuraziners

Took me forever to decide on this car, a lot of testdriving and going back-forth. Kudos to the car dealer in Jersey actually let me really rip during testdrive, which was mostly the reason why I decided on the G.

True that G37C is luxury tuned sport, but it is definitely way more planted and on-rail on my old CLS, heck, it is a 4K lbs car! Of course, you can't compare this to a Z. Z is a true beast without finess, but G37C is, on the other hand, a gentleman with a beast inside

Nice G-vert!! I'm starting to see many more of them on the road around here. (Too bad yours will be forced to wear those hideous new retro-NY license tags.)

Nice pick-up! I like the revised look of the taillights on the vert much more than the coupe.

Not bad, I like how everything flows on the Convertible.

I still don't like convertibles though lol.
At least it's better than the IS C. Those are just ugly.

I am happy that you guys like it, think I made the right choice

I was debating among 3 colors, this called Graphite Shadow, Obsidian Black and Athens Blue. Finally decided on the Graphite, as it is more manly and doens't stand out as much as the blue

It is dark outside now, but I will post a pic with top up next week, trust me, it is beautiful with top up (I actually like better the way it looks with top up). I was as well very surprised that Infiniti did a awesome aesthetic job. Way better than that of IS350C, and personally, even better than Bimmer 335 convertible, the bimmer vert with top up looks like bald guy. But hands down, Bimmer looks best with top down

Bimmer (doesn't the back of the roof look like a bald head? )


IS350C (the back is just hedious)


G37C

Looks good! Congrats! Any plans to upgrade the exhaust to enjoy the surround sound with the top down?

Not crazy about the vert, but the G37 is a great car. Congrats!

Just curious to know if you looked at the 370Z vert?

Actually, in Car Talk, the dark side is Acura. Other Japanese makes and any German brand is the bright side...

Car looks hot though... congrats

Good pick up. I prefer the 335i vert more though, the G is my second favorite.
