How about using the best mag time acheived for the G37 if you are going to do the same for the G35.

And that is 0-60 = 5.3 and 1/4 mile = 13.8 for the G37. At a drag strip that's a good margin over the G35 coupe.

None-the-less mag racing FTL!

 

Another great Gday post....you gotta love mag racing...

 

whats the 335i time?

 

This is another example of why magazine numbers are useless. People are selective about the numbers they pick.

As a 1st year owner of new model cars twice in the last 8 years (well 3 times now with the G37), I have learned that after a year or so, the 1/4 mile numbers improve a good deal on the 1st year model as drivers learn how to drop the clutch and where to shift. I cant speak for autos but there is more than just pushing on the gas for autos also.

enough with all these car magazines post.. i hate them there so annoying.. we shouldent be allowed to post them!! so pathetic we go to 4.9-5.6.. they mean shyt..

but yeah be like everyone else black chrome lip.. thats whaa i would do to my IP

 

bronze/gold w/ chrome lip on a white car. there is this 35 in my neighborhood that has this and it looks great.

 

Ok, lets hit the tracks... G's both g35 and g37 obviously do not do well in the 1/4...... I didn't buy this car for racing anyways. So I could care less. Sorry if I offended anyways, but at least I didn't grab the info out of my azz like some people here.

"My car is fast cuz it feels faster than the G35" haha.

 

As I understand the test, the G35 was a little quicker 0-60 in most tests but the G37 was much quicker from 60-150 then the G35. I think if you are already moving and need to pass, its very good but is not quite as quick from a standing start.

I did look at the IS350 as well before getting my G37 and found it to be a very good automobile. It was not quite as exciting and the dealers would not let me order one like I wanted.

One thing I am happy about was getting the G37S without the sunroof. The sunroof adds over 100 pounds of weight to the top of the car and subtracts over 1" headroom. The sunroof hurts performance and handling.

 

I'd go time attack style wheels on an IP.
But thats just my .02

Update us when you get your first ticket.

 

Yep but you are referring to the Sedan.. This is regarding the previous generation G35 coup vs G37.

And you are right the 1/4 mile numbers are a much more true indication of a cars accleration than 0-60 especially when the difference is mere tenths of a second at such a low speed. It is actually possible to be at a speed 60 MPH before someone else and yet be behind them- granted you would be reeling them in. Distance over time is always a much better measure.

 

There ain't nothin wrong with white on white look at this

 

that's what i'm talking about but I can understand what people are saying how certain white rims just dont look right. Good looking out tho!

 

Anytime =D

 

And after the third you'll be afraid of getting in the drivers seat.

 

Sorry but that just looks ricey... Was that taken near or in Midget Town?
