BMW 335i VS. INFINITI G37S

onethreefive

Let's keep this thread civil people.
Regardless of the pro's and con's of each vehicle they are both nice cars. I've always liked the styling of the 335i...the sound of the VQ motor though is .

LOL, another BMW owner...they are such haters..

They can't stand the fact that G37 is better value car than BMW 328/335 can they..

Dude, if Hyundai Genesis Coupe is better car than G37, then it means Genesis Coupe is easily MUCH MUCH better than BMW 328...LOL

G37 couldn't but the first generation G did to the E46. That is why BMW had to shove 2 turbos to keep up with the current market.

Both are great cars and me personally, i couldn't get used to the G37 looks after seeing how beautiful G35 coupe was.

How does the G37 get dethroned by the Genesis coupe?
G37 has almost the same accelartion as the 335, Handles as good as the 335 and costs 8k less. I have no clue what you are talking about. Is the 335 worth 8k more? Yes. Why because they have been building the 3-series for decades and they know how to build a solid car but that is where the 8k difference is justified.

Epik

haha not my words, man.

I'm talking about the magazine comparos. G37 was close but no cigar when compared to the 335i.

But now the Hyundai Genesis Coupe comes and takes the win vs the G37 in all the ones I've seen so far. Edmunds has one out as well as Popular Mechanics. I'm sure more will follow today or tomorrow.

14.5 @ 97mph. Stock 2003 G35(6MT) is faster than this.
G37 does high 13s and traps over 102 mph.

This race would end up genesis losing the G37 by couple of buslenghs if not more. How is that close in any way? G37 vs the 335 is close but not the genesis vs G37.

Dethroned? No it was a better value. The G37 won in most items. They say it is a better driving car, it has more power, etc. The Genesis is just a value at 2/3's the price not a better car.

good point there, but also factore FI'd cars are really cheaper to mod. you can get JB3 or procede V3 and put over 425 lb/tq to the wheels on the 335 for like less than a thousand dollars (or like 1500 if u go procede). if u want to get same output out of NA G37 u gotta put quite a few bolt ons or go SC or TT... right?

im not really hating... to each their own, i enjoyed the G and enjoyed the 3er. it's easy to see which car wins or is "better" in different areas but as a whole it's very difficult for me to admit 6MT G37 > or even = 6MT 335

Very good point. That's one of the biggest appeals of the 335, or even VAG's 2.0T audis or VW's. Super easy to tune. Factory FI you can squeeze out almost 100 hp with out serious modification. I'll be impressed if anyone gets much more than 50-60 hp out of NA mods on the 370Z.
