Updated but still gorgeous styling is the norm on the 2009 Infiniti G37. The interior of the 2009 Infiniti G37 especially wins favor with reviewers.

Edmunds loves the "user-friendly controls" and "handsome design," while Car and Driver deems the interior, which features "a color monitor to control the radio, climate-control, and optional nav system," to be "pleasant enough." Cars.com also feels that the interior of the Infiniti G37 "is a vast improvement over the first-generation G35, and now features such novelties as aluminum trim modeled after Japanese Washi paper." Rounding out the praise of the interior, Kelley Blue Book reviewers find that "the seven-inch LCD screen included on all models" of this Infiniti 2009 coupe "radiates colorful and attractive graphics that further enhance the new model's more contemporary vibe."

There are three trim levels available for the 2009 G37; however, telling them apart from the outside can prove difficult. Edmunds reports that the three trim levels of this Infiniti 2009 include "base, Journey and Sport 6MT," and the only real difference between them is that the base and Journey come "standard with 18-inch wheels," while the Infiniti 2009 G37 in Sport 6MT trim features "19-inch wheels." Aside from the different wheels, all versions of the 2009 Infiniti G37 look "great (albeit in a more voluptuous sort of way than the original)," according to Edmunds.

Reviews read by TheCarConnection.com rave about the exterior of the Infiniti G37, with ForbesAutos praising the "fresh, elegant styling" of this Infiniti 2009 coupe. Automobile adds that the front "looks muscular and tough in person," and "overall, it's a subtle evolution of a great design." Cars.com describes the "curvaceous body" as integrating "large—but fairly subtle—fenders, while the bumper boasts one of the more sinister interpretations of the familiar air dam and side portals you see on many cars."

Conclusion

The current Infiniti G37 has sexy, seductive exterior styling and fresh interior styling.

Other Choices:

Experts from TheCarConnection.com have compared the new G37 to the BMW 3-Series coupe as well as the 1-Series. This will be difficult for some readers to accept, but the 2009 Infiniti G37 coupe may be the equal of a couple of BMW coupes out there. While Bimmer enthusiasts may be aghast, they will be forced to admit that the G37 is, at the very least, a darn good competitor. If you can go without the Infiniti owner experience and the extra seats, Nissan's own 350Z has handling that's just as brilliant. Compared to the beautifully styled 2009 Audi TT, the G37 is a more dynamic performer. The Audi is front-wheel drive, and this blunts the car's moves. However, if all-wheel drive is something you're looking for, the Audi (and the BMW 3-Series) offers it, while the G37 does not. The new Audi TTS might not be thought of on the same high-performance page as the G37, but it’s actually quite the sportscar.

    Where do you get your information about the G37 coupe NOT offering all-wheel drive? I believe that you are misinformed here.
