The 2010 Infiniti G37 is an extremely well-rounded car

There are few more balanced cars than the Infiniti G37. It can be a refined entry-level luxury car, a comfortable place to spend a morning commute and an alternative to the Lexus ES. It can be a sharp-cornering sports car with a snarling V6 that, some reviewers say, makes a beautiful exhaust note and competes with the BMW 3-Series. It is available with high-tech cabin electronics that stack up to those found in an Acura TL. And it does it all with a sense of style, with aluminum trim textured to look like Japanese washi paper and cool blue lighting.

 

Like the coupe, the convertible will benefit from several new Infiniti features, updates which will certainly appeal to avid enthusiasts:

• A VQ37VHR "VVEL" 3.7-liter V6 rated at 328 horsepower.
• A 7-speed automatic transmission. Optionally, drivers can select a close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission.
• G37x AWD model with advanced ATESSA E-TS(TM) all-wheel drive system.
• New sport 18-inch wheel design.
• Scratch Shield paint (self-healing clearcoat finish) is now standard.

Though the convertible won't go on sale until well into the 2009 model year, the standard coupe will be available for sale in September 2008.
