INFINITI G35 BEATEN BY THE BMW 328i....C&D asks wheres the refinement??
This is another review of the excellent g35 sedan a car that has taken infiniti from a pass right by it company, to a car company that makes true performance cars, it seems performance just isnt enough in this segment as the best in class combines both sports car performance, luxury, as well as high quality, and overall aura of refinement that is expected from a 'luxury" sedan.

Darn! I was SO hoping for them to say we have another 3-series killer (The first one being the IS350. HA! And, seeing how most mags are biased towards Japanese cars in general anyway, I'm surprised.)! I guess we'll just have to wait till the NEXT Lexus IS comes out.

All it did was beat it in the slalom (barely). That doesn't equate to overall better handling. If the IS250 did handle better than a 335i, then the IS250 would be known as the best handling compact sedan, which everyone knows that is isn't.
Did I mention that the IS250 is slow as heck?

the IS250 will be getting a HP bump, its not as if the 328i is fast either, of which the IS250 compares well against.
But you knew that.

There's more to handling than the slalom. When will you guys learn?
Honestly, If you fell that Lexus IS250/350 handles better than a 3-series, then you are delusional.

This is funny. Recently we saw an article by Motor Trend on this website which proclaimed to be the "New King" and now we have a BMW fanatic trying to put down the Infiniti G by posting this old article that was already on this website. Ridiculous.

bmwdrvr is just DESPERATE for attention, all he is doing is posing old articles that everyone has already seen.
Really sad and pathetic.
G37 = WINNER
335i = LOSER

335i= Handles better, faster, 50/50 weight distribution, engineering, best engine of the year, sporty interior, free mantainance, and awesome looking.
G37= fast, not as good looking, not bad interior, good VQ engine, good handling, and cheaper.

Stop with the free maintenance morons!!! We'll see how free it is when it's in the shop and you're riding in that silly X3 taxi they have. Hell, maybe that's why BMW is coming with a minivan. So they can take more cust. to work after they drop their cars off for new brake pads, clutches and the all important wiper blades.

That spoiler on the back of the Infinti looks really cheap. And why does Infiniti needed to copy the Hoffmeister?
So basically it looks like a cheaper BMW.

Because Lexus copied the Hoffmeister kink as well? It's evident on the IS, GS and LS.

The interior of the 335i looks like a 1980's Toyota Corolla. Cheap build quality, too much plastic, ugly exterior, why did they ruin such a good car.

I agree the E90 interior is nothing compared to the E46 in terms of design and materials, however it is still a well built interior.

You are making yourself look more and more pathetic everytime you try and discredit the G.

no im not desperate for anything im not one of these kids here, and for that matter anyone that has ever read my posts regarding the g35 knows i like the car so get over the bias bs its not there, these people on here wine like kids over cars, and make "cars" personal, its just an article. and as far as me misquoting edmunds i did no such thing, to be honest it was simply sarcasm edmunds saids the g37 cant match a BMW'S handling, they didnt trash the car, and neither did I. just that the G37 cant match BMW on handling. just like MT did with its overhyped national enquirer title, misleading title that doesnt have the numbers to back it up because the numbers show otherwise. just a way to sell mags....not produce a quality review.

MotorTrend gave the Ford ThunderBird the car of the year in 2002. Enough said.
As for the G37? It's a nice car, but as with all CHEAPER alternatives, It needs a little more refinement.

wow, some of you BMW haters are ridiculous. It's called "irony", look it up. As in, it's ironic of Motor Trend to pick the G over the 335i when C&D picked the lesser 328i over the G. I believe that's why he posted the article.

Hello everyone, this is my swan song. Yes, it is me, the blogger formerly known as "formula1sucks". It seems that I was banned and I can only think of two reasons
1. The owners of this site felt that it was wrong of me to mock another blogger, even though I did not use overly harsh language. I've seen worse and those people are still not banned. OR...
2. That formula1 cried like a little girl and complained like Paris Hilton going to Jail asking me to be removed.
I am really leaning towards number 2 as most of you probably as well.
Hopefully this post will remain on for some time before it gets removed and many of you will read this. No need to worry Autospies, I said that this was my swan song, I will not be posting anymore.
sincerely,
Formula1Reallysucks
P.S. You know we all love you formula1...
P.P.S. formula1, if you believe what I just said then you really need some help.

formula1- if you knew anything at all, you'd just save up your tips and go buy that VW Golf. Cuz that's as close as you'll get to a BMW. If C&D said Kia was the best car, you'd run out and sign up. Admit it, you have no clue what you're talking about.

To use an analogy in golf, "Drive for show, putt for dough", my family and I adopted our own motto, "Drive European luxury cars for show, drive Lexus for dough". Good and fun driving to all.
