i think your decision was wise to go with the 37...12MPG is insane. I certainly couldn't afford that anyway!

Had the Jeep and it was a lot of fun. It was too small to be useful as an SUV. Out and out SUCKED in the snow and without some fabrication can't tow anything. Its a really big Sports car. Did I say that it was fun?

I'm much happier with a truck (Yukon Denali) and the G37 where each vehicle suits its purpose. The SRT8 did neither perfectly.

True U cant compare srt8 to a g37

And if u ask me, only thing g37 got is the dashboard, and the navi monitor. WOOHoO

srt8 breaks more necks then g37s/ 37s are nothing everyone and their mother has one now.

srt8, when U see one U turn ur head and look at it. Its a sexi truck...

U might look good in ur g37, but it sux explaining to the girl in ur g37 when an srt8 abuses the **** out of u, cause u decided u wanna look good and show off.

like everyone said - 2 COMPLETELY different cars. dont get me wrong, the srt8 is a beast but personally i prefer handling over pure power. plus i love the luxury of my 37. hell even i want an escalade to roll with my friends but id never compare it to my g.

Not entirely true. I had the pleasure of a ride in one at Watkins Glen on the 3/4 course and it was pretty damn amazing what it was capable of (in the right hands).

10s huh? So how do WRXs, G37s, and EVOs with that HP run 11-12s and yet you can smoke em in a truck that weighs much more.

Me thinks your expectations are a bit skewed...unless your talking 1/8 miles..

Ill be putting 550 to all wheels and running 10's at the track - now tell me which car I'd rather keep. Have fun losing to 335's with the beautiful car you own. No doubt about it the G37 is beyond good looking - but I couldn't deal with how slow it is on a daily basis.
