Lol i know and it seems like every time they say something positive about the G37, they follow it up by saying that it still falls short of the 3 series blah blah blah

Did they spend 10mins in the car??? WTF is up with incorrect and sometimes just WRONG information. Was the writer of the article a retired WSJ writer? Is he/she upset about not being able to fit his walker in the trunk??

And for the most part, askmen.com is very lame.

Haha whatevers, whoever relies on askmen.com for factual car information deserves to get smacked upside the head anyway. Anyone notice the guys consistently says something along the lines of "although not up to par with a BMW, Infiniti blah blah blah"? hahaha

OMG, was the writer stupid or just on drugs? I don't think he's even been in one of these cars much less seen one. I think he was just copying and pasting from various other reviews.

An article like this with blatant misrepresentations and factual errors isn't worth the paper it's written on.

Here's what I had to say about this stupid article.

10. It does come as a sedan. They redid the sedan and coupe for 2008, except that the sedan won't come with the 3.7L engine till 2009. Big ****ing deal.

9. Touch screen, what the others have said... Most people agree the interface is pretty much the best out there. I find it very easy to work with.

8. The G37 definitely has sharper--not gentler--angles and is more aggressive. It is less boxy but more triangular-y, having a sort of predatory, more Ferrari stylized look as compared to like an Altima like look of the G35 coupe (both are sexy but those are the directions they lean in).

7. Anyone that knows anything knows the G37 has better quality than the 3-series. 3's are a dime a dozen, I get stares in my G37 all the time, it's definitely much more of a head turner.

6. BMW handles better? Hardly; 3 takes it in cornering, G in the slolem.

3. From what I've seen, people prefer it on the steering column, and not the wheel.

2. AWD for 2009.

1. G37 is much quicker than its price equivilent, the 328, while the 328 might have a slight edge in handling. If you want to throw a TT in the 328 (335) that's just fine. It makes it about as fast as the G37 at a much higher price, but to make it a fair comparison you should compare that to a G37 with TT, which would then cost as much as a 335, and the G would, once again, be a hell of a lot faster. The 3 has cornering and trunk space over the G37. Other than that, the G37 destroys the 3 series in every single aspect.

Too many stupid people on the internet, writing things like they are facts when in fact they are an idiot...

Yeah, too many BMW's and MB's around here so they aren't really head turners. Now, while I don't have a g37 coupe, I do have an 08 g35 sedan. Now, this baby turns head everywhere she goes.
