Check this out from Car and Driver:

"Trust us, we’ve already put the new G37 through its paces, including hot laps at Barber Motorsports Park in Alabama as well as at Grattan Raceway in Michigan, and managed to squeeze a 700-mile road trip in between. However, Infiniti mandated that we’re not allowed to post any stories or videos until June 25th. Please check back then."

 

Nice find, Thanks.

 

anyone care to speculate as to the significance of June 25th? I vote that's the day or day after they officially release pricing.

I would imagine that's the reason. Good thing is we'll probably see a whole bunch of reviews all come in at once. Seems like alot of magazines already have the G37 tested and are just waiting to hit "print".

 

Damn it! Grattan is only a little more than a hour away from me!

Looking forward to the reviews.

 

Hopefully some magazine will screw up again and we'll get the info earlier.

 

good find! it seems there is always something we have to ''wait'' for. Im probably the most impatient person when it comes to waiting for something.

i thought the g37 got some reviews already though

 

what's with all this secrecy? what's infiniti so cared of?
OMG, infiniti is the drama queen of the year!! from the way they're treating the G37 it feels like it's a $600,000 porsche GT5 or something. it's annoying now

 

you know im really starting to lose interest in lambofiniti!

 

Lets wait until June 25th before we criticize Infiniti and their decisions please. I hope they have a good reason as to why they wouldn't want any of the reviews and videos released until then. I personally like the teasing that Infiniti is giving because it keeps me wanting more. I really only want to know about pricing (I'm very curious as to how much more expensive it is compared to the current G coupe with the new engine and everything).

 

i just think they over did it waaaay too much! the car is good, but it isnt THAT good, we're not talking S5 or M3 here.
sorry if my comments bothered you. im just pissed off coz i just found out my G is eating up motor oil like crazy at 7k miles

 

I don't think Infiniti cares if anyone from these forums starts to lose interest. They'll still get their sales and good press. It's not that Infiniti is "scared" of something... it's just that they don't so much information and videos on the car to be released 2 months before it even hits the official release date (my dealer is speculating that it will arrive earlier.... ahhh... rumors rumors!). This kind of technique is very beneficial for the company because it keeps the people who are interested wanting more. It's all about anticipation. It's like the upcoming Harry Potter movie (which I'm very much looking forward to seeing... the book also!)... the teaser trailers is like what Infiniti is doing with us. I understand that many of you, myself included, are impatient people... but it will all be well in the end when the G37 is finally out. I'm very much looking forward to sitting behind the steering wheel, playing a song from my mp3 player (not iPod), driving home from the dealership and finally be able to say... "Wow, I really have my first car."

 

Oh no worries, your comments arent bothering me. They actually make me realize how excited I am to get the car in August (hopefully no delays).

 

Do you guys really believe C&D will give it a favorable review over the 335i? C&D already gave the 328 first place over the G35 even with a huge performance gap the G35 had over the 328. Personally, I could care less about the review. The only data I am looking forward to is the 0-60 and 1/4mile. And no thanks to their subjective review.

 

This is my take on magazine reviews:

1. New car comes out and all the magazines rave about them.
2. By the 3rd review, they start mentioning things that never came up in the 1st review (grabby clutch, road noise, etc).
3. Next new car comes out - guess what? It's the best one yet!!
4. Go back to #2

I more interested in tested performance. Looks are subjective as is driving feel.

Prediciton:


All that being said, I think the 335 will still come on top. They'll site better steering feel, road manners, acceleration, and.....drum roll....refinement. Those pesky inline 6's.

"overall, great attempt by Infiniti. They are the closest to the reigning champ, but still not there yet."
