If you actually do your research you will see the sedan weight comes in at 3,628# and the coupe comes in at 3,633#...........research helps you from spreading these untrue rumors. It used to be more as it was around an 80# differance but really not enough to make a differance.

3628 < 3633 - :d

And btw, an 80lb difference is actually a very big difference and 80lbs can make a world of difference in both drag and track racing. I dont know how experienced you are in true automotive competition but i would guess not very judging by your assumptions. Ive been in competitive driving for quite some time now and i can tell you with certainty 80lbs is enough to make or break. Ill do my research but you should gain some real driving experience local budget track days are a good way to start

when you need to brake hard and the engine automatically downshifts and blips the throttle for you.........gets the car ready for when you need to punch it right after...and leaves a nice little exhaust growl

Well he is right because the sedan is only like .2 or .3 seconds faster then the coupe which you can hardly tell any different.

But we can tell the sedan guys our coupe turns more heads then their sedan. So HA for you sedan people.

Cool

You know you own a G37 when... u sit at the driver seat of this beautiful car, turn on the engine and hear that unique engine and stock muffler sound which is translated in human language: I am all for u.

You know you own a G37 when... u have a 328 HP sedan with twin intake.

You know you own a G37 when... u feel the joy / speed / enthusiasm of Gas pedal + DS mode + Gear shifting from the Hand shifters.

You know you own a G37 when... u can get some extra wheel spin from the 4th gear (Auto).

You know you own a G37 when... u start driving this beauty and passing people and other cars. and u notice them trying to c who is at the driver seat.

You know you own a G37 when... u by coincidence c another G37 and u say: WOW does my car look that awesome ?!!

You know you own a G37 when... u stop at traffic lights and other sport cars driver next to u, or even on the opposite side (not mentioning the brand name but 2012 american or other jap sport cars) look at u and sometimes trying to race u.

You know you own a G37 when... u drive on the highway and here comes a sport car behind u or next to u, doing some sort of movement harassing u wanting to race u.

You know you own a G37 when... 90% of the launches must be associated with extra wheel spin even when the traction control is ON.

You know you own a G37 when...u come back home and park it, u give it a look means "c u tomorrow or c u later".

This is ridiculous, are we really fighting over ALL those 5 lbs? And why are we getting at each other at racing and tracking this car, which I'm sorry to say... is NOT a racecar. It's a beautiful car for having been designed more than 5 years ago, take it for what it truly is.

I might be wrong, but a vehicle that weighs this much doesn't seem to have been designed for drag racing, otherwise it would've come ready from factory.

+ 1K on this! Can't even fit a large size cup from some restaurants... Also, I feel so cool turning heads at a drive thru, only to get the 2 coffees we got with my wife, only to be able to fit one of them in the cup holder, and hold the other one... all this while trying to shift my 6MT!

Still love it though

It was up until I saw what an Upsized Coke looked like in the US that I understood why my friends cup holders in his Ford Explorer were so damn big haha

* When you're waiting at a stoplight, see a Japanese tourist on a bicycle stop and take pics of your car. (happened a couple of days ago) I rolled down my window and gave him a thumbs up.
