You know you bought the right car when...

This past month, I was driving to DFW around sunrise and I came upon a black coupe that was reflecting the early morning light like none of the other black cars and looked just right. The hyper silver wheels complimented it just so... It was a G37S.

This came at a time where my familiarity with the car in the driveway or during washing had lost some of its zing. Seeing one in motion renewed the joy.

Thanks to the mystery G owner that has the twin of my coupe.

For me, it was when I went to a 5 star restaurant at a 5 star hotel and handed my car over to a valet. Then after dinner, when the valet brought down my car I received compliments on the ride from all the valet guys, even though there was a Bentley Continental sitting right in front of my ride . $400,000 car being ignored cuz of a $40,000 work of art!

haha, I let one of my friends start my car and drive it down the street... I have never heard it other then from the driver seat... Long story short, kinda considering keeping it now instead of selling it.

hahaha how can you compare a 400K Bentley to your G37? The Bentley is a boat built for many people in total comfort and class. You can bet your *** the Bentley owner received just as many if not more compliments and he probably gave a better tip as well. I'm sure the Bentley owner looks down at any G37's as some POS inferior made vehicle, which if you are comparing the 2 it is.

For whatever reason, the G just appears to be more upscale if it is modded right. Since mine is mostly debadged, the average person just always assumes that it s something exotic

^+1^ I love seeing people's heads turn as I roll past. Even when she's dirty and has dust all over her, people still stop and look as I drive by. Happens even more now that I live over 4 hours from any Infiniti dealer and there's only one other 37 coupe within 100 miles that I've seen.

This was within a few miles of the South entrance. Either on 121 or 183. I had a midmorning flight on the 25th.

Which is why when I'm taking a two-week vacation on new years in a month I'm leaving my black obsidian baby at the dealer's garage to repaint the whole car entirely, get rid of the annoying dents and scratches and make it look brand new again!! My insurance policy covers dents and scratches so insurance is paying for it all

Lol I know how some people might be really attached to the G (it's a nice car and all) but a Bentley Continental > Fully modded G37 Coupe any day of the week for me
