Heck Yeah, Bmw cant compare, all that car has is Brute Speed, so unrefined. G37 is sooooo much smoother and quieter, not to mention we have so much more options than the 335. Back up camera, power steering wheel up and down, the nice looking brakes on the sport package, 19 inch wheels, and of course the very sexy body lines on the G37 is just soo hot. Damn Pos Bmw still charge you for Paint on their near $50k car, pathetic.

Congrats.
I decided between the G37 and the 328i.
Hah! what was I thinking?!
335's markup was just too much for me.

Now we Talking!!! G37 is in the same price bracket as the 328i. Heck yeah our Gs are a way better value. They should compare the 335 with our Skyline, both have twin turbos right? So what if the Skylines $20k more? Not like the 335 is the same price as the G37s apples for apples..

You can always trade it in for one. it wont be too big of a loss. but make sure you dont trade back in the 335 for a G again, you will then really regret it

Nice pick brother, now a quick way to get rid of that ugly gap is to drop your car. Do a quick search on Tein H-Techs, Eibach Springs, or Tanabe NF210 springs. All give you a beautiful mild drop and change the look of your car forever.

No offense and I know these things are very subjective. However, I think your criticisms of the BMW are a bit over the top and I think the BMW compares quite well. It has speed and its handling is great. Its 200lbs lighter which makes its driving a little lighter. I can't really comment on quieter, but some of the earlier BMWs had noisy runflat tires that BMW replaced with quieter ones. I agree that the G is certainly more sexy (Infiniti is spelled Infiniti btw). It has more of a sporty look, while the 335 has a refined sport coupe appearance. Have you used iDrive for any extended period of time? Really once you get used to it, its pretty straight forward, and the improvements they have coming for 2009 look great. And referring to BMW as a POS??? And while I have a 335 now, you can't call me a BMW fanboy as I had a G35 before and will probably get a G when my lease is up in Feb.

Edit: Sorry, I see it was the OP that commented on iDrive, not you.

To the OP: I agree, that the outside is certainly more conservative than the G. The inside is rather spartan as well. The G is much nicer and although I haven't used it yet, the backup camera sounds like a nice touch. I haven't had a chance to take the G out on any twisty's yet so I can't really comment on its cornering per sé. Nice review though.

My buddys brand new 335 had 150miles on the odometer when it wouldnt start and had to be brought back to the dealer. took them 10 days to figure out whats wrong with the car. Besides back up camera, are we forgetting about the touch screen function? Go sit in a G37 and you will definitely know what I mean by noisy about the 335, and its not the tires. the gauge cluster on the bmw is sooooo plain jane, looks just like the 92 Bmw 325 that was given to me for free. the drivers window switch is really retardedly placed. All I really give a thumbs up to bmw is the speed and the handling is a better if you get the bmw sports package, but its one hell of a bumpy ride with the sports package, the infiniti sports package even with the 19s ride like butter.
