Anyone know how fast the 2010 G37S MT sedan accelerates from 0 to 60?

Also, has anyone seen a power & torque vs. engine speed dyno curve for the 2009 or 2010 models?

I have one for the 2008 models, but I think this has changed:

About the 2009 G37xS: "The G37x S was nearly half a second slower to 60 mph and through the quarter mile than the G37 S, hitting 60 in 5.4 sec and tripping the lights at 13.9 sec at 100.5 mph."

That's pretty quick. Either way - what else delivers this level of performance at this price point?
Most road tests put the G37S in the high 13's. I'd say the average is probably about 13.8 seconds. Sure, that's quick, but nothing to write home about.... There are less expensive cars that even quicker, but it doesn't really matter anyway because I don't consider the G a car that should be playing race car in the first place.

Car & Driver reports for a 2009 G37 S 6MT sedan: "0-to-60-mph time of 5.2 seconds and a quarter-mile run of 13.8 seconds at 104 mph"

In a comparison test against a BMW 335, Audi A4, and Acura TL SH-AWD, Car & Driver tested the G37 S 6MT sedan and recorded a 0-60 of 5.4 with a 1/4 mile time 14.0 @ 102 mph.

The 2009 and 2010 VQ37 in the sedan I thought was only mildly different from the G37 coupes. The chart you found and other similar charts from Automobile are the only ones a google search finds ... hope this helps.

Thank you for the info on the 6MT sedan. These cars are fast, actually faster than they need to be.

Purchased mine on 4/12/10, and I am still learning how to drive it without a lead foot. It is nice to have the power when you need it, but the rest of the time I would like to maximize fuel efficiency.

I wear mine out every chance I get. It's way too fun to drive and I'll step it out around any corner I can within reason just because it puts a helluva smile on my face.

I don't think there has been a single day that I've driven it with the VSC on

Just make sure the leather is in proper condition, and that there are no swirl marks on the paint.

What i love the most:

- The sound of the engine is beautiful
- The front end is as sexy as it gets in any car i've seen that doesn't cost a fortune
- Rear camera
- The feel/size of the steering wheel and how much control you have with it
- How tightly you can turn corners with it and have fun even in the city
- The brakes. This one didn't strike me as a plus until I drove a Chevrolet Malibu this weekend and the brakes felt so terrible not only feel wise but performance wise.

You won't see that happen. The car wasn't meant for a grandpa to drive. I'm not saying I'm out street racing the thing around, just enjoy driving it in a spirited way.

Got all the racing out of me on the motorcycle circuits when I was younger.

My insurance premiums are low and I have a clean record. I know when to have fun and when not too. Go bash on someone else with your time and enjoy ***** footing your car around.

Another plus with the G is they don't use run flats and you have a spare if needed.

Just saying, I'll remember this thread and your ignorant comments when the inevitable happens....

I love the engine sound and performance and how it feels when pushed to the limit. Love how solid, stable and composed the car feels on the road. Love the looks I get.
Love how it looks inside and out.
It's so beautiful that sometimes I just stare at it. Everytime I park it and walk away, I always walk away looking back at it. My girlfrieand things I'm weird because of how much attention I pay to the car.

Jealousy is an ugly trait

LOL - I hear ya'. My significant other thinks I'm insane over the car, too. I also do the staring and looking back at it. I have taken countless pictures and yesterday I grabbed the flip video and jetted out for a spin in my G (short vids posted to youtube). Maybe it's because the G continues to give and give with a smile without asking for much in return.

What do I love about my G? I love the fact that even if it's dirty, it still looks damn good!
