The G has better MPG and the Subaru is a very nice car too, fast, quiet and stable.

Forget about the Audi unless you have reserve funds for repairs.

$0.02

I'd recommend you look at a B5 S4, as well. If your budget is 20 grand, you can buy one & have plenty of money left to maintain it.
It kind of sounds like you'd prefer a Japanese car, so i vote G37

Join the Subaru army already, Patrick. We have cookies.

HKYStormFront · 01-24-2012, 07:43 PM

the S4 does not, it has the 340hp v8 from the A8 sedan, the RS4 has the DI 420hp motor

HKYStormFront · 01-24-2012, 07:51 PM

i completely see your point of view on that^ but i'm in that frame of mind where i like the z a lot (though i'd be hard pressed not to buy a 5.0 instead if i'm honest

) but i really do want 4 doors. 4 door Z = G35/37 sedan. i'm more concerned with this purchase for the extra space, the better ride, the more luxury features, etc. not a damn thing wrong with the Z, just not what i want right now. i'll own one at some point in my life but first i need a good travel car

side note: if the new maxima offered a manual transmission, that'd be a no brainer. i'd buy one in a heartbeat. i love the way the new maxi looks. too bad it only comes in CVT

Alright you convinced me! Go for the G37s. Really a great car for your purposes. I think in terms of reliability and service, Infiniti is a safer bet. I test drove a mercedes, lexus, audi and cadillac sts before buying the G37s (coming from an SRX). It was by far my favorite in all categories except power. You'll be happy with it. Sorry for the preaching! Sometimes hard to control the father in me! Good luck!

kchu221 · 01-24-2012, 07:53 PM

LOL i have a g37 6mt, its not as sporty as you want it to be... i also test drove the s4 last week and that car is just amazing....

HKYStormFront · 01-24-2012, 08:01 PM

i don't want it to be sporty... i want it to be quiet and comfortable but not a buick either

RoadZter · 01-24-2012, 08:03 PM

G35 is nice too. Basically the same body as G37. I don't think it comes with Navi if I remember correctly.
