Ahh g37 or Jeep SRT-8

I've made my decesion to go with g-37. It was a tough one because the beats inside the srt-8 is incredible, but 12 citympg and 14 Highway said enough to me.

Actually I don't think you will be regretting anything...the refinement of a G37 will never be matched by a Jeep. I could care less about straight line performance, you couldn't possibly pay me enough money to make me buy the SRT-8.

You guys have no say, as you probably havent driven it once; let alone months. I've done a few mod's to it and run 12.2-4's. Next month I'm dropping a arrington 426 into it for 7000 installed. 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.

Um.... so why exactly did you buy a G37?

I don't even understand the basis of this comparison, you're comparing an SUV to a Luxury Coupe?

The SRT's more practical, faster etc.. The G's sportier, will wet my pants, yours and hers exterior and interior wise (I'm talking about the car's lol)

It just comes down to what you want, but I still can't believe you neglected all those factors and let mpg be your primary one

You're lucky to have made the right choice though lol Welcome on board

my friend has a SRT and i get to drive it all the time. It's fast i'll admit but in the end it's still a truck.
