If it weren't so much for the fact that I track my evo and pretty much use it occasionally as a weekend car, I would be driving a G37 if it were on my short list. The G37 is a much nicer car, the exterior/interior is very nice. You have to be blind as a bat or a fanboi to even compare the interior of the evo to G37. The old G35 coupe I can believe because the interior looked really cheap for the price point.

Hi Im a Newbie,

U shouldnt put Evo x Vs Infiniti g37. Not the same league... Better try evo X VS STI, or EVO X VS Audi S4... The Only Vehicle for G37 VS is the BMW 335i coupe...

Thank you for your recommendation, The purpose for this thread was to get opinion from people about both cars. After collecting information from members of both forums Myg37.com and this forum, I opted for the X. I sold my G37s and bought an EVO X MR (Phantom Black).

Thank you to everyone that commented on the forum, it was really helpful.

Take care everyone!

Where do u guys get 45k+ for MR. I just saw one with everything but aero kit and it was only 39k sticker price in Oklahoma. Add aerokit and you are barely over 40k. I shopped the 335 also never saw one for under 48k. G37S doesnt even raise my pulse one beat when I see it on the street. I always just think well they couldnt afford the 335i coupe or they dont really care about performance.

actually in stock form, i think Evo X MR vs G37x is a more fair comparison. Both are sedan, auto, AWD, and very close in performance. The G37x is bit quicker 0-60 than MR, beats it 5-60 by over 0.5 sec, and it is about $3k cheaper than MR. Plus much more luxury as a bonus.

As with everyone else, the comparison boils down to this: Do you want a driver's car (meaning luxury is not important, the drive above all else is) or a car that shows how ballin' (sp?) you are and is good for a stock straight line car. More importantly, do you plan on modding or not? And ultimately do you want manual or not?

If it came between buying Evo X MR, G37S and BMW 335i or 335 xi, 335 ftw.

You take any G37 owner and you put them behind the wheel of a 335i for 10 minutes and they're going to feel like absolute idiots.

The BMW is just so much the better car, more expensive, but worth every penny. And let's not even get into the amazing and radical advantage the turbo inline 6 has over that awful, thrashy VQ.

I have the Evo X GSR. My wife has the G37 S sedan with 6MT. I've driven both plenty of times. Both are still 100% stock. Here's my take:

Acceleration: Slight edge to the G37. Power is there all the time. No turbo lag. Better top end power. Higher trap speed in the 1/4 mile. The X is exciting when the turbo kicks in, but is lackluster when not in boost.

Braking: The Evo wins hands down. The G37 is no slouch, but it's no Evo.

Handling: The Evo wins hands down. The G37 is no slouch (better than the A4, 3-series, etc), but it's not even close to the Evo.

Transmission: Nod goes to the G37. Smooth engagement. Good clutch. No notchiness. Better gear ratios. 6-speeds. The Evo tranny (5MT) is rough, notchy and the gearing is too short. If you're a fan of the MR, you may have a different opinion here.

Ride comfort: G37 wins easily. Ride is smooth, yet still decidedly sporty. Evo is rough comparatively (even the MR).

Exterior styling: This is all personal preference. The Evo is definitely more aggressive. The G37 is more class/stylish. If you're going to a nice restaurant for dinner or to a big event, you take the G37.

Exterior build quality and paint: G37 wins easily. Fit and finish is much better. Paint quality is head and shoulders better. Infiniti paint has a cool feature where it will repair swirl marks by itself. The clearcoat is made that way. Not 100% sure how it works, but it is there. Evo paint sucks...we all know this. Fit and finish is on par with your typical econobox sedan.

Interior styling and quality: G37 wins easily. Everything you touch feels nice and has a good texture to it. The leather is very nice. The Evo...well everything feels like a cheap econobox sedan.

Stereo system: G37 wins. I have the Rockford system in my Evo. My wife has the Bose stereo in the G37. The Bose is much better in all aspects of stereo sound. Evo comes with Sirius, G37 comes with XM. So, they are even there. The Navi systems are pretty much even in functionality and usability.

Seating position: Evo wins. It is set up for spirited driving and it delivers. The Recaro seats are so much better than the seats in the G37.

Moddability: Evo wins easily. With just a tune you can easily gain 70whp. With the G37 being N/A, you can't make gains easily and turbo kits would be expensive.

Daily drivability: The G37 wins. It rides smoother. It is much quieter. It has a roomier interior and a larger trunk. This is the car to take for your everyday activities.

Sporty Drivability: The Evo wins. Handling is out of this world. You're more connected to the Evo (if you know what I mean). This is the car to take for a canyon carving run.

Trackability: Evo wins hands down. Nothing else to say about that.

Did I forget anything?
