Coming to Infinity from Mercedes. Picked up a new Moonlight White 2013 M37 this past weekend, and am in love so far!
This is my first Infinity after years of German cars….just got damn sick and tired of taking them in for little things that needed constant repair….
Anyway, I decided to look at Acura, Infinity, and Lexus….
Found Acura a bit odd and simply didn't care for the FWD RLX, and the Lexus GS is small inside (I'm 6'3" and my left shoulder rested on the B-Pillar), and the experience was a bit numb….Infinity checked all the boxes for me….
The M37 was everything I wanted….stylish, love the beautiful lines of the car, extremely sporty, but not harsh, well-weighted steering, good feedback from brakes and steering….And tons of room inside; love the high-quality interior and intuitive HVAC, Nav, and Stereo. Most importantly, the 3.7 is a blast….love how it makes power throughout the RPM range all the way up to 7000 RPM….....Mercedes doesn't have V6 that compares and BMW and Audi 6 cylinders that have similar power are not naturally aspirated and cost thousands more,and will have frequent trips to the dealer to fix problem after problem...Didn't look at the new CTS, just too blingy for my taste…
Since it was a leftover 2013 and they are changing the model to the Q70, the discounts were huge and my company allows me to purchase at VPP pricing…..The discount was nearly $12K less than MSRP with no doc fee……This car is a tremendous value compared with it's competition…
I'm itching to order a Stillen or a near cat-back exhaust or an intake, but I'm gonna wait so I can discern the difference when I do the mods….
Sorry for rambling, I'm just stoked….here are a couple of pics I snapped in the garage tonight…..After 500 miles and many of those driving in the rain she is a bit dirty, but still beautiful….
