Well, the only Cobra to really push the engines are the 03-04 Cobra's and the new GT500, and Ford was extremely smart in using forged pistons, etc. Amazing cars! I used to have an 03 Cobra and loved everything about it, well, except I lived on a dirt road at the time

Yeah go get a test drive...it'll probably give you better feel of what you want.
I loved the car before I drove it this past Sat at the dealership and after the drive, it's only confirmed my love for it. Can't wait until next month to get one.

You talking **** about NEW YORK?? G35NYC is about to **** you up.


































JK, What I meant was an Infiniti G37 is at a way different class/level than a 2007 mazdaspeed3 but if you have anything to say about you New Yorkers... say it now.

AndrewDDS, what amazing input. I'd love to hear more of your thoughts but of course I'm without any kindle for that fire at the moment. For me, work is kind of busy right now but I had to take a peek here.

speedphreak, I think what the New Yorkers are trying to say is that you can't really compare that Mazda to an Infiniti G37. For example: sure, you can put a $10,000 stereo into a 1984 Buick and it will be a much more powerful stereo than the G's... but ... do I even need to go on?

The G37 is an amazing all around car. People tend to focus on one aspect of it and only compare it to cars that are better (faster, etc) but ignore the fact that as an all around automobile the G37 really is an amazing piece of machinery.

It's stylish, well built, quick, handles great, amazing interior that is both comfortable and functional and has all of the tech gadgets you would want. It's got class, speed and comfort, it's really hard to beat that package. Yes there are faster cars out there, but as an all around package for the money this car cannot be beat.

I live in Florida. I have my sights on the pearl white/black with rosewood.

The G is not a speed demon nor is it fast off the line. It's performance is on the higher rev end. It's a heavy car for it's size but has great handling. The best thing to do is test drive one and get liberal with it. Don't be afraid to open it up a bit. Remember, the G only has 330hp and it's not a turbo charged anything nor does it have crazy speed. Understand it before you buy. Too many say that they feel it's underpowered after a few months (they should have seen that during the test drive).

The technology in it is nice but has it's shortcomings as well (Bluetooth limited, NAV locked in motion, etc).

For the bang-for-ur-buck, you can't beat the G though. You can get faster, better NAV, etc in a different car but you'll pay 10k-15K more for it and that's just for starters.

KP Technologies sells a fantastic module that will allow you to use all the features of your navigation system while in motion.

i disagree with the idea that this car is not fast. several guys here have do low 13's stock, and i've seen a thread about 12.96 w/track radials. i posted a vid of what i can assume, a naturally aspirated auto doing 12.65. the car is well balanced and can be thrown around. my personal experience with the car has been nothing but good. i came from an 06 6mt coupe, and this car feels much faster...after break in, my first hard shift to second gear ripped the tires loose all the way through the tach, and chirpped third.

That is true.. there are guys who have stock times of 13's. The G is not fast of the line though.
