With its innovative new VVEL (Variable Valve Event and Lift) 3.7L V6 engine, the redesigned G35 coupe, now called the 2008 Infiniti G37 coupe, boasts 330hp. Despite the 5 horsepower boost, the G37 yields improved fuel efficiency over last year, 17mpg city and 24mpg highway. The G37 ships in three trim levels, the Base, Journey, and Sport 6MT, all with a standard 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive.

Besides the G37, the class of 2-door, 4-passenger luxury sports coupes is the domain of some legendary members, including BMW's 335i. This year, a change of guard is in order due to the strong marks the Infiniti G37 is earning. Ever since the G35 hit car show venues, its beautiful styling drew a lot of attention. This year, G37's beauty goes even deeper. All six option packages for the G37 offer some impressive features including the Technology Package with Intelligent Cruise Control which maintains a follow distance from the vehicle ahead. The 4-Wheel Active Steer Package (4WAS) enables the rear wheels to steer up to 1 degree, directed by sensors.

Pulling away from traffic on mountain curves is a worthy test of the G37's new suspension and power. Cornering is G37 strength, with stiffer springs and substantial sway bars; it puts the side bolsters on the seats to the test. The Infiniti keeps you in touch with the machine by presenting the driver and passengers with cockpit silence broken only by the impressive exhaust note.

The 2008 Infiniti G37 is equipped for collision protection with driver and front passenger airbags, side impact and curtain airbags, and all-important crumple zones to prevent intrusion into the cockpit in the event of a collision. Brake Assist, 4-wheel anti-lock brakes and stability control are standard. Many successful automotive models are unable to improve on their individual successes, but for 2008, it looks like the Infiniti G37 has rolled out another winner.
