I've owned a few Nissans in the past and I'm thinking about purchasing an 2013 Infiniti G37x Coupe AWD. Previous Nissans are 2004 Armada and 2006 370Z Grand Touring. Both great cars. Wanted to know if anyone has driven the G37 AWD in snowy conditions and can tell me about it. I live in Connecticut and we get a fair amount of slippery driving. Trying to find out if the G37 AWD can be a fun year round commuting car. As you can tell I enjoy my commutes.

Thanks in advance for any honest feedback.

as a fellow ct resident, i have to dispute this statement. i've driven a couple of my old 240's through our winters, and one rochester, ny winter, and had zero issues. that being said, ANYTHING awd will be more than adequate for what we get here.

There's like three mountains in CT, my little burrito; maybe he lives on one of them. ;-)

I concur, though. AWD should be plenty. RWD probably is fine, too, if you drive like a sane person and buy snow tires.

Yeah, if you have issues, it's nothing a good set of all season or snow tires can't remedy.
