Nice choice! I have a 2004 and will be upgrading to the G37 in the near future. Shopped all cars in that class, and the Infinity just waxes everything else as far as power and luxury for the $.

We just picked up a loaded G37 Coupe for the wife to drive last weekend.
They are solid cars for sure.

Right you are, sir. I was considering the Acura RL and a B7 S4 (test drove both). The G was hands down the best bang for the buck.

Congrats to your wife. :beer:
