Back of the envelope calc says switching over will save you aprox $1,200/yr, assuming:
you drive 15,000 mi / yr
gas costs about $2.60 / gal
Relative MPG 20:50 (g37: prius)
Maintenance is the same

Not bad, I can see where that amount of savings could mean a lot. For some lower-mileage folks (myself included) that cost savings shrinks to $500/yr or less, so the decision becomes whether or not the so-called driving experience is worth that amount. All up to the individual driver. Hope the new ride serves you well

Congrats on the new purchase. Personally, I would kill myself with that power band after having a G37 but that's just me. I'm not the slowest drivers in the world so I doubt the gas savings would be all that extraordinary after I was mashing the pedal all the time to get up to speed.

Anyone ever seen the test Top Gear did on the Prius vs M3?

Why leave? I traded my G almost a month ago, but these forums have been so good to me that I gotta pay it forward! Hope to see you in an Infiniti when your miles cut down.

Wow...ah.....congrats....I guess....Id rather pay the extra amount in gas than drive a Prius. Hell I'd rather keep the G and ride a bike to work if the gas was that big of a deal. See ya over at the Prius forums.....they do have forums right?

Wow...I mean Wow. Possibly the worst hyper miller car ever, I'd buy a diesel or a Mazda with that skyactive BS than a prius. ESPECIALLY, coming for a G37.

LOL I remember this episode! This is proof that buying an M3 is more economical right?

I can't wait to see Clarkson Hammond and May back at it in the Grand Tour!!
