2008+ Infiniti G37s Coupe is criminally underrated.

One of the best Grand Touring coupes on the market and no one cares about it.
Asher Flores
Literally a Corolla shaped Prius. I get 40 mpg average with my diesel Corolla.
Lucas Allen
>underrated cars Literally any used modern electric car. They're so cheap and make perfect shitboxes.
Robert Parker
It's not underrated, it's a rebodied Prius.
>Better interior than the worst Mercedes Wow it's nothing.jpg Also, the interior is pretty small for anyone over 6'. >Precise steering Bullshit. It's one of the first and worst electronic steering assist setups. >CVT is refined No. It drones and revs way too high with too little throttle input. >Works surprisingly well for spirited drives I suggest you readjust your definition of spirited drive, because it's a battery-laden pigfat FF shitbox with a mediocre power-focused transmission. >Fun to drive Opinion, and your opinion is shit. >40mpg easy For a hypermiler, sure. Fleet economy is an awful lot lower though. >Hockey puck mouse Most annoying control system I've ever seen. >Not a hybrid-looking hybrid Yes it is, because everybody here knows they're just hybrid cuckboxes.
Bottom line: they're a cheap, upmarket Prius, that doesn't look like a Prius.
The only upside on them is that they're pretty safe. Five friends of mine got hit on the Autobahn in one, rear ended by a drunk driver while doing about 140kph. The thing rolled at least three times according to eyewitnesses. End result: some cuts, bruises, and a single concussion.
>No one cares about it Because not a lot of people want a cheap GT car made by Nissan.

>40 MPG easy
40 mpg is not even easy, is idiot proof.
I'm constantly > 50 mpg
Isaac Thomas
I've driven a G35 sedan, did the G37 do anything to fix the horrible automatic transmission or it still only good in manual?
Lincoln Phillips
It's not a rebodied Prius, it's a rebodied Auris (basically Euro-market Corolla-alike) with some Prius guts.
Parker Rodriguez
The 7 speed auto is faster to 60 than the 6 speed manual. And from what I heard they are very responsive after the TSB transmission patch in 2010 for the 7speed.
Luis Murphy
Rebadged Auris then.
The Prius is for hippies, the Auris is for geriatrics. Not much of a difference.
Josiah Jenkins
I think the genesis coupe is more underrated
Sebastian White
t. hasn't actually driven a CT and is basing his post on some prius that has worse steering, suspension and transmission as well as only used lexus enform for 30 seconds at an auto show
Joseph Gomez
Anyone can make a v6 with 300+ hp and it's disgusting.
Nathaniel Rodriguez
What other manufacturer makes a naturally aspirated V6 with over 330 hp? That's a pretty high hp for a 3.7
Brody Ward
>highly luxurious >2JZ engine straight from a supra >low priced because japanese taxes I don't see why more people aren't importing them.
Camden Allen
i never hear anyone talk about mazda 3s
Christian James
I have an idea of why people might not import them.
Ryder Foster
Its bland, heavy and unreliable. Fuck that.
Hunter Foster
>200hp >can be had for stupid cheap, fraction of civic SI price >6.3 0-60 >LSD >only manual
Hunter Walker
It makes less torque than the GM lfx and the cyclone 3.7.
Connor Howard
Underrated
Jace Reed
>owned exclusively by blacks
Adam Richardson
C30 with the straight 5, manual. Interior was low rent considering the price though.
Easton Russell
Simple interior is good man. No bullshit and keeps the car light.
Ian Kelly
>c30 >light
