Nov. Automobile.....Infiniti G35C Vs. 330Ci

Wow. how unthinkable........they admit another car company can actually beat out a BMW.



Quotes.............

"The G35 tends to understeer at the limit, but overall it's very predictable, has great grip"
"The BMW is slightly quicker to 60 mph, while the Infiniti won the race to 100 mph."

"The G35 had no trouble keeping up with the 330Ci"

"The G35's steering is better than the 330Ci's, and who thought that we'd ever say that about a BMW?"

"In contrast with the G35's ultramodern, realively simple front end, the snout of the 330Ci looks a little busy"

"The G35's rear seat offers...scant headroom for an adult"

"The G35's cabin is functional and very comfortable, but overall not quite as luxurious as the BMW's"

"It took us quite a while to find a power switch for the G35's radio besides the one on the steering wheel"

"The Infiniti is an absolute blast, and it offers a more visceral and aggressive driving experience than even the BMW"

I've test drove the 325i and the G35.

I have to say the G35 does many of the things that all the automobile magazines of raved, but I'm still not fond of the G35's styling. It's too subdued compared to the Bimmers.

Unfortunately w/ the latest additions/updates to the BMW line (7-series, Z4, etc) I'm not sure how long that's going to hold up either...BMW may have finally been dethorned.

im glad...i mean im not interested in a G35C but i am so sick of BMW....i get more excited when i see a RSX-S than i do when i see ANY BMW...i just dont care for them whatsoever...i think its more because of the drivers than anything...BMW is a yuppie/baby boomer car....thats it, thats the end of it. i will never own a BMW thats for sure. just dont see the big draw....
