No, I don't mean "hot" as in stolen! I mean "hot" as in "hotness"!

2009 Infiniti G37 Convertible side


The sexy new Infiniti G37 convertible has unique bodywork, an upgraded interior and a three-piece retractable hardtop. There will be two models available - base and Sport 6MT. Both get the same 325-horsepower 3.7-liter V6 as the G37 coupe. The base model gets a seven-speed automatic transmission as standard, while the Sport model comes with a close-ratio six-speed manual. Base-model convertibles get 18-inch wheels, while the Sport versions are upgraded to attractive 19-inch cast-aluminum alloy wheels.

The G37 convertible interior gets extensive aluminum trim on the dash, doors and the center console. Both the dual-zone climate control system and the optional Bose audio system have the ability to compensate for top-down driving - the Bose audio includes headrest-mounted speakers. An optional rear-seat windscreen reduces cabin wind blast for high speed top down cruising. Pop-up safety roll hoops have been added to protect rear seat passengers in the unfortunate event of a rollover. Infiniti G37 Convertible will be in U.S. dealerships in the spring of 2009. Expected base price is rumored to be just under $40,000.

I think the G37 Convertible kicks the Lexus IS, Saab 9-3, and the VW Eos convertibles right to the curb in terms of looks. What's your thoughts, fellow motorheads?

Now that is a nice car...and the hardtop makes it great too. $40K is not bad for a convertible.

Nope, sorry.

Whereas the G35 is a good looking car, the G37 went right back to that boring dull and bland styling Japanese manufacturers do so well...

The convertible doesn't change that.


Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit posting...

Uhm, no. I'll take the Saab or the Eos any day before this. But that's just me.

I think it's just a carbon copy of Lexus SC430 CV with an Infiniti badge on it. Just look at them both - same bloated body and bland lines designed specifically for their overweight customers. duck

A great looking car but a little impractical for my needs, I'll go with the sedan version if I were to buy one.

I think the G37 coupe is one of the sexiest cars on the market. And it has a great exhaust note too. My only complaint with Infiniti is their interiors. The design is nice and the ergonomics are great. But the quality of trim pieces and the leather on the seats leaves a lot to be desired.

The G37 is a great looking coupe, but they totally missed the mark with the convertible IMHO. Very bland, no aggressiveness, no definitive lines what so ever.
