i've seen this car stuggle to beat a pick up these cars are slow when they have the auto. You won't beat any sports cars, and you will lose to most muscle cars...but it looks awesome though!
The trap speed for the 1/4 mile tells the story of the lacking 0-60 and 1/4 time. They got way too much wheelspin and the numbers suffered as a result, but the 100mph trap is indicative of a high 13's/flat 14's run.
@ambientflier I notice that too. I saw the 100 MPH trap speed & was like what the heck. 14.6 sec? A car going that fast in the 1/4 mile should be doing the times u said. Once the wheels hooked up, the car started to recovery as indicated by the trap speed. The 0-60 & 1/4 mile times are about the same as other RWD or AWD cars like the Mustang GT w/ the 4.6L, 335i, Evo, 350Z, Challenger R/T.
Just a few days ago I recorded 5.6 seconds 0-60 with my 08 G37 5AT. And I screwed up the launch. MT screws up their tests, car and driver always get much better numbers.
Looks like they had issues with wheelspin, and much worse than in their test of the 07 G35S sedan at that. Their G37x test yielded better results. The AWD really grips off the line. The botched launch here with the RWD S could be due to driver error and/or tire wear.
Oh ignore nil1230. He's just some kid who's probably never even been within 500 feet of a BMW or an Infiniti G37 trolling for replies. Well you got a few replies wee child. Do you feel all better now nil1230? :P
no it couldnt. A 328i would just lose. You really cant compare the 335i because it is 10,000 dollars more which is basically the only competition has. That is kinda of sad because you can get a twin turbo system for the g37 with 10,000.
This driver obviously did not know how to drive. Or they lied!! I go 0-60 in 5.2, and I regularly do the quartermile in 13.7-13.8. Mine is the 6MT. Their numbers are WAY OFF!!
This model has a shit transmission + the coupe weighs like 300lb more than the sedan. Motortrend tested an 09 sedan and ran a 13.5 @ 105

The last G35 coupe MT can 6MT can do 0-60 in 5.4 - 5.7 second and many other test results from automagazine get the G37 from 0-60 in 5.2 to 5.4s.

are you sure the driver is old enough to drive, you can do 0-60 in the mid 5s easily

6.2 to 60 from "330" hp is just sad. I would be ashamed to advertise hp that clearly isnt there.
