Nice article man. These things are freaking fast. Its funny b/c Motor Trend gave the title to the G37. It seems these magazines are on different pages now in terms of there choice...Hmmm.

MotorTrend--> G35
RoadandTrack-->335i
C&D---> we shall see

i'd like to see one of these things up close. One of the things that bothers me about the new 4 g35 sedan is the fake plastic vents on the front...lots of plastics everywhere, for that matter. I wonder how the coupe compares.

the only thing that bugs me about the G37 is that it has a bigger motor, more power and 0-60 5.5 secs for a manual and i believe insideline did a test where the auto got 5.5 as well. i think a good 6spd auto or some weight reduction would have been helpful.

All I can say is that the more 335i's that I see, the more I like them. I have yet to see a new G37 in person and I think it's probably a sportier looking car, but I think the 335i is still what I'd grab...

It's so obvious that the author is trying really hard to like the G37. Performance wise the G37 is not even close in the same zip code of the 335i and with the as tested price difference of just about $3,500 who here would even consider getting the G37 over the 335i, really...??
