Gallons of ink and multiple terabytes have been expended comparing every iota of the G37 sedan’s 3.7-liter V-6 to the optional turbocharged inline-six from its archrival, the BMW 3 Series. Sport models get 18-inchers, as does the Anniversary Edition, which also has more aggressive bodywork modeled after the G37 Sport. Xenon headlights and 17-inch alloy wheels are standard. Coupe and convertible styling are unchanged. Base and Journey models show more restraint, at least, and the car’s sides and rear carry over with minimal changes. Over the course of a week, I couldn’t warm up to it. The G was a handsome car in 2009, but I can’t abide its chief styling update for 2010: a clumsy new bumper with fanglike fog light apertures that, on Sport and Anniversary editions, have exaggerated frames and creased borders. We evaluated the 2010 convertible earlier this year, so this review focuses on the car we drove more recently: an all-wheel-drive G37x Sport. Click here to see the whole lineup or here to compare the 2010 G37 with the 2009. For 2010, the G comes as a sedan, coupe or convertible and is available in base, Journey, Sport and Anniversary editions. The BMW pedestal is high praise in terms of sheer driving dynamics, the G37 is arguably the only competitor that can share that position. If you’re shopping $40,000 sport sedans, the Infiniti G37 is required driving: It is smartly appointed, well-equipped, reliable and as much of a hoot to drive as the BMW 3 Series.
