I think the G35/G37 is too heavy and it sucks at launching.. I never see a G do well at launching. They are always a second slower..

"The coupe drives very much like a slightly lighter, stiffer, and smaller Altima sedan. That means it is pretty darned fast in V-6 form, with 0-to-60-mph acceleration happening in 5.8 seconds (0.1 second quicker than the sedan) and a quarter-mile in 14.6 seconds at 97 mph."

ENGINE TYPE: DOHC 24-valve V-6, aluminum block and heads, port fuel injection
Displacement: 213 cu in, 3498cc
Power (SAE net): 270 bhp @ 6000 rpm
Torque (SAE net): 258 lb-ft @ 4400 rpm

TRANSMISSION: continuously variable automatic

DIMENSIONS:
Wheelbase: 105.3 in Length: 182.5 in Width: 70.7 in
Height: 55.3 in Curb weight: 3366 lb

C/D TEST RESULTS:
Zero to 60 mph: 5.8 sec
Zero to 100 mph: 15.7 sec
Zero to 120 mph: 28.4 sec
Street start, 5–60 mph: 6.4 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 14.6 sec @ 97 mph
Top speed (governor limited): 130 mph
Braking, 70–0 mph: 175 ft
Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 0.82 g

.....Ya, last time i checked we're nearly an entire second faster in the 1/4 mile.

If any of you even THINK the Altima coupe 3.5 is even close to either G's performance, you're on crack. The closest in performance would be the first year G35 coupe w/ auto tranny, if that. Not to mention this car is F*cking hideous and FWD!!!

There have been members here with 13.7s in the G coupe. The Altima is not going to do low 14s. Sorry.

WOW dragtimes as a source... I can run my G37 and do a 15 sec 1/4 mile and post it on dragtimes....doesnt mean thats what the car actually runs.

Stick to credible sources, such as c&d , which is know for posting the best performance numbers out of any other magazine.

"That outgoing model performed the 0-to-60-mph sprint as quickly as 5.5 seconds, whereas the G37 accomplished the same test in 5.3.Further, the new car hits 100 mph from a stop in 13.2 seconds, the old car in 14.2, and the new G coupe covers the quarter-mile in 13.9 seconds at 103 mph versus 14.2 seconds at 100 mph for the G35."

If you bother to argue after this you're completely blind...BOTH G35 & G37 are faster.

Conclusion: G37>G35>Altime Coupe 3.3
