If you're saying it's underpowered compared to M3s, IS-Fs, and AMGs, to be fair, it's also priced 16k lower when comparatively equipped.
Do a search and see for yourself how people really feel about the IPL here.

Vistec, congrats on the new ride...love the color, but not feeling the As-gard name.


My brother was able to place an order for his 2011 6MT 2 weeks after the tragedy in Japan. His salesman ensured us that it will arrive in 3 months. (Japan to Guam) so it will be here mid to late June. I sure hope it arrives on time. I wasnt aware nor notified of the 2 months halt in production....though it makes sense.

People that feel that way about it are not even potential buyers, otherwise they would be driving an M3, an IS-F or an AMG series vehicle, and not a G37. What else can you get for 48-50k that is loaded to the gills with luxury features and has ~350hp? Not much.

it underpowered because if you going to make a Performance car it should have had at least 400hp

Doesn't make sense...most Lotus cars have less than 400Hp and are very high performance. HP is not a measure of performance, power to weight ratio is.

Yeah congrats on the IPL! You'll have all sorts of fun in that baby! So nice to be set up stock with all the options. Let the dealer take care of all the work and keep it in warranty. I'm sure its a big difference over your 35.

The IPL comes in "graphite shadow" dark grey and "malbec black" black/red shades. Where did the Asgard grey name come from???

IPL's come in Asgard Grey and Malbec Black.

Graphite Shadow is for the measly Journey and Sport G's

I still dont understand why Infiniti has so much grey colors of similar shade... they almost look the same.

Amethyst Graphite, Platinum Graphite, Graphite Shadow and now, Asgard Grey. They all have a slight shade of grey and other color differences between them.

They should have a dark Grey or Gunmetal color.

That's weird, I do believe that the IPL grey is unique from the normal G's but in the IPL ad brochures/materials (looking at one on desk right now) and even website infinitiusa.com it lists the IPL as graphite shadow. Is this just a oversight? I haven't seen the color Asgard Grey anywhere on the Infiniti sites or ads

Odd that they list it as graphite shadow on official ads and website, you would think a unique paint would be a selling point
