Hello All,

I have been reading Nico Forums for awhile and have found a lot of good information here. I recently leased my third G. My first was a 2005 G35 Coupe Blk/Blk, second was a 2008 G37S Coupe Blk/Blk, and now I have the 2011 G37S Sedan Graphite/Blk. Just got tint put on today. I switched from the Coupe to the Sedan because my wife and I will be starting a family in the near future. I won't do into detail aboout my lease deal but I will say I thought it was good. Sawgrass Infiniti here in S. Florida paid off the last three payments on my 2008. I put down 1800.00 and my payments are 460.00 a month inc. tax. The car includes Nav. I am really happy with the car. A different feel to drive then the coupes I have had but I have no doubt I will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed the coupes. The car came with pinstripping which I am not used to. The stripping is very discreet, blends with the car well. I am just going back and forth on whether I want it or want to make it look more stealthy without it. Opinions are appreciated.

Congrats on the new ride!

I personally am not a fan of pinstriping. If you are going to pull it off, do it soon. I bought a truck with pinstriping about 8 years ago. Brought it straight home from the dealer and pulled it off. It came off real easy.

We want pics!

Welcome to NICO.

Tell Joe the coupe handles much better and is less twitchy in the curves...he don't believe me :)

Schnope....drove a G37 coupe recently. It was a 6MT and didn't have the same feel as my sedan...a bit slower. It was MUCH better than my old G35 coupe though. Now, this isn't a fair comparison because it was completely stock and I have an intake kit. I don't really care for Infiniti's manual transmission either.

I've only driven one 6mt and that was Torry's. My G35 sedan is the same as the G37 other than the obvious motor differences and my coupe handles much better (even before the updates).

Don't know. The G37 coupe did not do well at lightning lap. Few FWD car( for exmple MS3, cobalt) beat it so does the genesis coue and the V6 mustang.

So I have been driving my sedan now for 2+ weeks. I did go ahead and have he dealer remove the pinstripping and I am happy with the look. Still breaking in the engine, just under 500 miles now, so I haven't been able to get the full-effect of the car's performance. I will say I do feel like I am driving a larger vehicle than my coupes. Probably because of the height difference and the cockpit space. At this point I can't say which I prefer better, the sedan or the coupe, but after a couple hundred more miles I may have a more definitive answer. I was able to chirp the tires in the coupe wondering if I will be able to do the same in the sedan. Looking into the future I hope Infiniti decides to come out with something more impressive power wise then the current IPL. I'd like to stay with Infiniti in the future but I am not a big fan of the M.
