2012 G37S Coupe owner here. This review is very accurate to my experience with mine. It's not the fastest car ever, it's not the lightest, but it's comfortable, fun, quick, looks so damn good, and is a perfect daily. I've modified mine a bit since I got it about a year ago, and before this, I had no experience working on cars. It's been a great platform to learn on. I love mine to death. If you're looking for a 2+2 RWD coupe with luxury, some sportiness, Japanese reliability, and plenty of aftermarket support, this is the way to go.
Zac Q I have a 2010 G37x Coupe and I 100% agree. Mine even has over 200k miles and it’s still going strong. I’m about to get the axle back stock exhaust swapped out for resonators to beef up the exhaust note.
These cars are the perfect first car for someone who wants a fast reliable, and cheap car. Bought mine for 5000 CAD (4000 USD) with 120000 miles and it's being so much fun for what it is.
@@kenpaacchi I did buy mine in 2018 so it was before car prices went up with Covid. I can still find g37s in Ontario with 100k miles for 6500 USD though.
I drive a G37 IPL, and am very pleased. Performance: my best 1/4 time is 14.4 seconds. The G has plenty of torque, but the final drive ratio is less than perfect for 1/4 mile times. The G shifts from 4th to 5th gear just before the finish line. So I am crossing the finish line at the bottom of the torque curve not the top. Automatic transmission: with 6 forward gears, the transmission is always “hunting” for the proper gear. The slightest change in road elevation, and the G will either up or down shift. Reliability is excellent. Other than routine maintenance such as tires and oil changes, I haven’t put a dime into the car. Summary: if you can find a used G37 IPL with less than 50,000 miles, get it. You will be please with the bang for your bucks.
TheDustyaman Haha. This guy's reviews are among my favorite on UA-cam....but what in the Sam hell is up with the jerky hand movements when introducing yourself and the car?! It had me chuckling hard.
I test drove one and it rode kinda harsh. The reg G37 I'd prefer. But transmission and power in the automatic was pretty impressive. Used these are a great deal for low $20Ks.
I just pick up one of this baby 2011 G37S Coupe Premium with Sports packages 😍. It's very comfortable, balance, precise and fun to drive 😍🥰 And the exhaust notes put a smile on my face every I hit the paddle 🥰🙂 Handle very well when you want it to and very refine when you're just cruising on the freeways 🙂
G-37x owner with a car that has 160k on the clock and still running strong. The one thing I thought it would be better at is winter driving, everything else has been great.
Huh, before doing this review I could have sworn I read that the S models got Brembos, and when I saw them on the car assumed they were legit. Doing some more googling now though I can't find any source talking about Brembos so I guess the previous owner rebranded them for some reason. Sam just got the car less than a month before and didn't make any of the changes himself so it must have been the owner before him. Regardless, the brakes felt good and the rotors were obviously upgraded from factory ones to the drilled and slotted rotors which probably helped.
I just bought a 2008 with 178 k miles already on it. That's how good these cars are. I had a high mileage g35 as well with 150 k before selling it. The car has very little issues. It does have a small grind when I shift into 5th gear really fast. I think the syncros on 5th are a bit worn and that's not shocking for a car with that many miles on it. I didn't pay a lot for this car considering the excellent cosmetic condition and how well it drives. Mine is lowered and has niche rims, lookin great.. it also has the grill, trunk bill, and badge blacked out with a good quality plastidip job. that blacking out of the silver trim on the car really helps to give the car less of a luxury look. Mine looks anything but luxury now. I had started seeing some aggressive looking g37's around town and realized they didn't have to look like a yuppies car and I could just get myself another Infiniti which is what I know and like.
I used to have a g37x coupe and the transmission had the problems he talkes about in the video. I remember doing some kind of update in the dealership for the transmission and it really made it much better.
JUST to clarify for fellow G37 Fans ( No offense Matt ! ) to get those killer seats, you have to get the "S" pkg in the G37. The non-S Seats are ok, but these are significantly better !! Merry Christmas everyone :)
Nice review! The G37 was giving the 3-series a run for its money back in the day (I still chose the 3 series) and then Infiniti just disappears for a while. Never understood it. They were so close to overtaking the 3-series, and probably would have with the release of the less-than-excellent F30, but then gave up at the last minute.
@1:24 those are Factory Akebono BBK not Brembo. the owner put the Brembo letters instead smh. hey let's meet up so you can drive my G37 6-speed Dyno Tuned to really represent this car.
Indeed if you treat them every so often with leather cleaner then they hold up perfectly fine, my 02 altima's seats are still in great condition and only now is the stitching starting to wear.
Seen several of Matt’s reviews by now and he’s not a bad reviewer at all. Thank god I did it right this time and bought a manual g37. My g35 was auto cause I wasn’t patient enough and I had buyers remorse big time . I’m not against autos btw and think they both have there pros and cons. I just couldn’t get over how crisp the shifts sounded when I heard some bad as manual cars shifting and it feels like that too.
Recently drove the modern equivalent of my '09 G37x. A '17 Q50 3.0T AWD. The steering is much better in the G. Plus the G feels more sporty. And the VQ sounds way better then the VR30. Plus I got mine for 10k! Name me a better daily for that price.
I own an '08 g37 coupe, ive had it since 2018. Its sept 2024 now, this car still flies, and very quick. Mine is a 6speed manual, not an automatic for you young people, just saying. 140mph, didnt feel like i was touching the pavement, i backed out. Im old, 55. Love my speed demon. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
G37s 6spd owner here. Fair review except I disagree with the visibility since it has a pretty good blind spot. I baby the car and the manuals are infamous for 5th gear grind so don't be surprised. It was replaced under warranty and same issue many miles later. I think it's just a defect in the transmissions they use. Another off the wall complaint is the doors are very heavy. Nearly everyone doesn't shut the door properly when exiting.
Render Lizswith those are unicorns. So hard to find them in the northeast since most people buy the 37x with awd which doesn't come with a manual. I did the next best thing.... got a jeep for the winter and a 370z for the summer
They do seem to be a great bargain, but the problem is finding a used G37 coupe that is still stock AND has low miles. Most I find are near or above 100k.
i have a 2012 g37 bro i love it. I never had any problems except for the usual tire change oil change new breaks . Go ahead and test drive it bro and get what you want at the end of the day youre the one who is going to be paying for it.
So happy with mine. Had a g35 before and now the g37s. Bought it with 178 thousand miles and my wrenches ready to go at any time she needs attention. I wouldn't recommend buying one with this many miles unless you're ready to work on it or have a cheap mechanic. The engine isn't showing signs of quitting any time soon. Honestly its still got plenty of power and will do 140 mph and then some.. not that id know or anything. I've never driven a real race car or anything but id have to say the g37 corners flat as hell with some decent coil overs and tires.. I'm so excited to get sway and strut bars in the future. The cars also got enough room in the trunk to put all my construction stuff for work. I've put my bicycle in the back seat of my g35 before. This car offers way more practicality than a 370 z and that's basically the entire reason I didn't get a 370z.
Believe it or not I sold my corvette c6 for a G37S modded and loved it. I needed a back seat vehicle because of my son. The corvette is only a 2 seater.
I have the G37 2013 Automatic, I feel pretty much the same as you, I bought it as a fun daily driver. The suspension is ok and has a bit of body roll, but its a fun project car.
I added Hotchkis anti roll bars, and it is a lot better. The next step for me are coil-overs. I don't think of it as a crazy sports coupe. But its reliable and fun.
Paper Man haha! I would feel guilty since at this point it’s high mileage and I am having automatic transmission neutral-1st gear, etc slip. I think the previous owner burned the hybrid clutch disk system. I am pretty sure it wasn’t me... 😝
Probably going to get a G 37 coupe within the next couple of weeks since someone pulled out in front of me yesterday in my Ultima coupe which had the V6 the manual it has all the options I wanted but I’m pretty sure it’s totaled thankfully everyone is all right praise the Lord but it’s a little bit of a bummer cause I’m going to have a hard time getting a manual so I think I’m probably going to have to settle with a automatic but I’ll be all right. Jesus bless y’all.
My cousin owns a g37 automatic and it's very nice! The owner should really ditch the tacky tail lights and black out his headlight housing instead (even install some halos), stop pretending he has brembos and properly put an AKEBONO decal, and give this car a proper detail all the way from the inside out! I would even go as far as having the headliner redone in some alcantara and it would look killer and properly done! I own a 370z nismo and I feel like the 370z is always easier to find in manual and cheaper than a manual g37 especially if it's an IPL, probably high mileage too.
The backseats in a BMW 3 series coupe surprisingly weren't bad at all. Being 6 3 I was comfortable back there, Im trying to figure out if the G37 coupe is as spacious.
Those are not Brembo brakes. Coming from a 370Z owner, those are the stock Akebono sport brakes that Nissan puts on the G37/370Z sport. What a fail on the part of the owner, as if Akebono brakes are something to be ashamed of...
All depends on how you treat them. If they're left in the sun all the time and/or not treated with conditioner, any leather will look horrible after 7 years or even less.
I've been tempted to upgrade from a 2013 FR-S to one of these or a Genesis V6 coupe. Except... I'll probably go for a manual trans. Wait... you used to be the WRX guy, right? You still driving that, or changed your name with your ride?
Certain cars look gorgeous no matter what year there in, the g37 coupe is one of them, no matter what year its a beautiful car to look at. Same with the original supra and 96 mazda rx7
Thank you. for reviewing one but, who ever had it beat the shit out of it. Mine may have a bit lower miles but it's an 08 n looks in better shape than that.
Looking at a 2013 g37x sedan with about 90000 miles for 12.9k and a ton of option. Would you recommend? Or what else should I look at to be sure it’s a good purchase?
Seems pretty reasonable if you're buying it from a reasonably trustworthy source. I bought my g37x from Carmax for around 10 grand (125k miles) and it was single owner, no crash history, premium audio package... If that helps. I see them for cheaper from random dealers though.
yo! this review is in my town! i recognize those backroads, plus the "W Western Reserve" and "New Buffalo" intersection on the navigation, this is literally like 10-15 minutes from my house!
Raptor 450 well you wouldn't be getting one. Out of like 300 there will be 5 manuals. Most people who look at an infiniti are around middle age n older and most ppl that age will not worry about shifting.
Marcus Blair you forgot about the young privates on the army and the Bay area California loves these and they swing them like crazy and they are usually manual
Marcus Blair trust me as air headed as the ppl are who get them I doubt they have the capacity to go online and carefully which one they get so yes they have gotten lucky my closest friend from ARMY got a g37s in a 6 speed manual
Is it better to get a g37x or g37s? Which one drives better/handles, reliability and is the overall better model? Thinking about getting one myself don’t know if I want AWD or RWD and is there really a big difference between the sport model and the base?
Some significant differences. S has bigger brakes, sport seats w/adj bolsters, paddle shifters, aluminum pedals, and the steering is heavier. You can get the S in AWD but they are relatively rare to see on the used market. The AWD has a bigger wheel gap as it was made for snowy areas. I hated that massive wheel gap on my AWD. $400 lowering springs fixed it, but they were a pain to install on the AWD G37. Infiniti recommends dropping the front axle.

Great review Matt. Good to see you finally got to review one of these. I'd definitely opt for the manual though

Amazing car for the money.
So, the owner rebranded the stock Akebono brakes to Brembo's? Err ok. Good car though. But the paint and interior have not held up too well.

Believe it or not I sold my corvette c6 for a G37S modded and loved it. I needed a back seat vehicle because of my son. The corvette is only a 2 seater.
I like how you pointed out that its like a batmobile and you're wearing a batman shirt 😂😂
Just got one for 9500 couldn't be happier
I have the G37 2013 Automatic, I feel pretty much the same as you, I bought it as a fun daily driver. The suspension is ok and has a bit of body roll, but its a fun project car.
I added Hotchkis anti roll bars, and it is a lot better. The next step for me are coil-overs. I don't think of it as a crazy sports coupe. But its reliable and fun.
Paper Man haha! I would feel guilty since at this point it’s high mileage and I am having automatic transmission neutral-1st gear, etc slip. I think the previous owner burned the hybrid clutch disk system. I am pretty sure it wasn’t me... 😝
I have a 12 G37 Sport sedan and it doesn’t have much body roll it’s more stiff compared to the 08 G35 I was going to get
Probably going to get a G 37 coupe within the next couple of weeks since someone pulled out in front of me yesterday in my Ultima coupe which had the V6 the manual it has all the options I wanted but I’m pretty sure it’s totaled thankfully everyone is all right praise the Lord but it’s a little bit of a bummer cause I’m going to have a hard time getting a manual so I think I’m probably going to have to settle with a automatic but I’ll be all right. Jesus bless y’all.
dude acts like 2010 is back in the stone age smh
It is😂 my benz be talking to me
Because it is
@@jmoneyyy2116 these do too I own a 12 G37 also
So hard to find black, less than 115k miles, under $10k and with ipl body kit....
It's just so stupid to black out your tail lights.
Depends on the car I'd say but yeah this is a bit over the top.
Eric Meyer how ? It looks mean
Eric Meyer they're blacked out on my g35...everyone seems to love them
right that's so throw back man, murbered out played out imo. those are beautiful red led lights, why cover it up?!?!
I like them but on some cars I don't. its just depends on the car and personal preference
My cousin owns a g37 automatic and it's very nice! The owner should really ditch the tacky tail lights and black out his headlight housing instead (even install some halos), stop pretending he has brembos and properly put an AKEBONO decal, and give this car a proper detail all the way from the inside out! I would even go as far as having the headliner redone in some alcantara and it would look killer and properly done!
I own a 370z nismo and I feel like the 370z is always easier to find in manual and cheaper than a manual g37 especially if it's an IPL, probably high mileage too.
"lets turn on to this back road" -matt maran
The backseats in a BMW 3 series coupe surprisingly weren't bad at all. Being 6 3 I was comfortable back there, Im trying to figure out if the G37 coupe is as spacious.
Those are not Brembo brakes. Coming from a 370Z owner, those are the stock Akebono sport brakes that Nissan puts on the G37/370Z sport. What a fail on the part of the owner, as if Akebono brakes are something to be ashamed of...
James Hammons right? lmao
As if ANY big brake kit is something to be ashamed of. It could say Walmart on the side for all I care.
Holy shit matt went from, HELLO GUYS SUBARUWRXFAN HERE!!! to was good my nigga subaruwrxfan out here.
Damn boi been hitting that gym👍
Awesome Infiniti G37S )))))
Does the usb port work for playing music in the car?
Yes from an ipod or iPhone only.
@@cooldaddyslick6869 Lies. Both my 4 & 16 GB sticks fit in just fine, no Apple crap necessary. 🤣
The leather seats do not hold up well.
All depends on how you treat them. If they're left in the sun all the time and/or not treated with conditioner, any leather will look horrible after 7 years or even less.
The older pre-2010 G37 have terrible leather material, the newer ones feel much more robust
My 2009 has the notorious bubbles. The leather itself though, is still nice
not true, my old one was a 2008 g37s in black and my seats were perfect no lie. it all definetly depends on the owner
I wish I could attach pics
I've been tempted to upgrade from a 2013 FR-S to one of these or a Genesis V6 coupe.
Except... I'll probably go for a manual trans.
Wait... you used to be the WRX guy, right? You still driving that, or changed your name with your ride?
They put the ad right before his "backroad" run 😭😂
K so I have a 2011 G37 xS coupe my reverse lights and back up camera aren't working...anyone know the problem? Reverse switch?
Did you figure it out? I have 2008 m35 and my rear camera and right rear LED brake light is not working now.
why is this guy driving a sport coupe in what looks like a rural or farm road?
Certain cars look gorgeous no matter what year there in, the g37 coupe is one of them, no matter what year its a beautiful car to look at. Same with the original supra and 96 mazda rx7
G37 is absolutely an amazing car
Thank you. for reviewing one but, who ever had it beat the shit out of it. Mine may have a bit lower miles but it's an 08 n looks in better shape than that.
@mat marran im confused between this and the genesis coupe 3.8 🤔
Bro you can shift your own gears with the DS mode. Use the + to up shift and the - to down shift. It shifts a lot quicker that way than the pedals
Looking at a 2013 g37x sedan with about 90000 miles for 12.9k and a ton of option. Would you recommend? Or what else should I look at to be sure it’s a good purchase?
Seems pretty reasonable if you're buying it from a reasonably trustworthy source. I bought my g37x from Carmax for around 10 grand (125k miles) and it was single owner, no crash history, premium audio package... If that helps. I see them for cheaper from random dealers though.
Was really hoping it would have been the 6 speed manual.
Mrakstunna well that would have been disappointing
Why is that? I've driven the auto and found it to be quite boring. The manual is much more engaging and a different driving experience.
Mrakstunna bro does it matter gawd lee I hate car enthusiasts that hate on automatics like dang
@@milowalks lol fr. that shit annoys the hell out of me... Oh its an automatic?? damn the car sucks
Auto does suck. U weenies need to grow a pair
Ohhhh... so that’s how they film those smooth camera move shots, it’s like attached to a stick (saw in rear bumper reflection)
I bet the owner is blacked out
Sam Lung 👎👎
DeOndré Anderson lmfao does she know she's a side girl cause if she's looking at g37 vids, you just exposed yourself m8
How's the road noise in this thing? I heard they are very loud and bothersome over long periods.
I love these cars!
I own a g37 2010 aut0 it has 113k miles , I was wondering when does the power start to go out?
2003 audi rs6 review?
anyone?
Bro, this car is like...man. It's amazing and dreamy!
finally an infiniti
yo! this review is in my town! i recognize those backroads, plus the "W Western Reserve" and "New Buffalo" intersection on the navigation, this is literally like 10-15 minutes from my house!
My dream car 😍😍
Ive has an 07 g35x and an 08 g35x type s that i just sold. i wanna get on of these soon! Best looking coupe out there i believe!
man the cars paint looks rough
The 7 speed auto is known to lag, but the dealership can do a reprogram to make it quicker
I'd never buy a G with an automatic.
Raptor 450 well you wouldn't be getting one. Out of like 300 there will be 5 manuals. Most people who look at an infiniti are around middle age n older and most ppl that age will not worry about shifting.
Marcus Blair you forgot about the young privates on the army and the Bay area California loves these and they swing them like crazy and they are usually manual
Tyler Wallace I'm sure they got lucky or ordered one online when you could.
Marcus Blair trust me as air headed as the ppl are who get them I doubt they have the capacity to go online and carefully which one they get so yes they have gotten lucky my closest friend from ARMY got a g37s in a 6 speed manual
Tyler Wallace wish my car was a 6 speed 😔
Does the sedan version come in manual? Nice car, only thing is they still run near $10k with 85 miles. How reliable are they? How moddable?
Super reliable, a lot of guys have fun modding them as well.
VQ powaaaa !
Those are Akebono calipers. They walked away from Brembo due to noise, dust and cost. It's kinda stupid to put Brembo logo on them.
blacked out rides are so 2010ish....
Acuravigor47 nah they're still nice but this one looks like shit, his paint is all sorts of fucked up
Blacked our cars are played out. Time to move on.
Acuravigor47 blacked out cars have been played out for awhile you are right
@@infamousian123 dark silver is where it's at nowadays, those look beautiful!
@@carlosandleon dark silver with black rims
Is it better to get a g37x or g37s? Which one drives better/handles, reliability and is the overall better model? Thinking about getting one myself don’t know if I want AWD or RWD and is there really a big difference between the sport model and the base?
I have a coupe x and runs so good on track grips better obviously being awd
Some significant differences. S has bigger brakes, sport seats w/adj bolsters, paddle shifters, aluminum pedals, and the steering is heavier. You can get the S in AWD but they are relatively rare to see on the used market. The AWD has a bigger wheel gap as it was made for snowy areas. I hated that massive wheel gap on my AWD. $400 lowering springs fixed it, but they were a pain to install on the AWD G37. Infiniti recommends dropping the front axle.
