Infiniti g37 wins best car award

Nissan Motor Co.'s Infiniti G37 coupe won the Best Car award at the Seoul Motor Show earlier this month. The award was based on a survey of journalists who attended the show.

The G37 was introduced at the New York International Auto Show, which was on at the same time as the Seoul show. The coupe is an upgraded, more powerful version of Infiniti's G35 coupe that comes with a 330 horsepower engine.
The slick-looking luxury sports coupe adds to Infiniti's fledgling presence in Korea. Infiniti's first Korean dealership opened in 2005. Now there are four, and the company is looking to open more.
BMW Korea, a competitor to Infiniti, has eight dealerships. Infiniti sold 1,700 cars in Korea last year for a market share of 4.2 percent and a sales increase of 222 percent from the previous year, according to the company. Nissan created the Infiniti luxury brand to compete with other sporty high-end brands, such as Lexus, BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

Wow, you mean to tell me that Korean people actually liked the front bumper? Maybe they never saw the G Coupe Concept.

You know I'll be beating the dead horse until that G37 is sitting on my drive way - at which point I will abruptly change my opinion regarding the sport front bumper and drool all over it.

The new G37 is not out yet but it won its first award, this car will be a great successor of the current G35. When I was at the NY Auto Show the car looked beautiful.
