Default S4 no more, got a new ride!

Hey everyone,

Thanks for all of your help over the past few years!

Im the proud new owner of a 2008 Infiniti G37-S 6mt; Ivory White/Black Interior. Its not quite the S4, but i'm loving the MPG's. It has 330hp/270tq and 0-60 in 5.2, also loving the RWD Its got all the goodies: Touch Screen Nav, Ipod, Compact flash, Bluetooth, adaptive headlights, back-up camera, ect...basically everything the S4 never had. No real need for Quatro living in Orange County, although it did rain today. I'll post some pics when it shes all done up sexy like.

Default Cool car! Congrats...

What kind of MPG are you going to get?
Will it out perform the S4?
What made you leave the Audi brand?

18/26. After I do headers/intake the MPG's should go up a few. I saw 8-10+ mpgs with headers/intake in my Acura CL-S on the highway(around 34-36mpgs, but dropped a bit when I added a catback system), so I expect somewhere around there. In a straight line it will probably beat an S4 when I've added some mods (H/I/E), as of now it feels a bit slower without all that torque. You have to work the engine harder to make it perform as effortlessly as the S4 did. The car also needs sway bars in a major way.

I left Audi because the buyout on my car was around $7k over what it's worth, it was out of warranty, and I wanted something a little cheaper/easier to maintain.

Default G37 is a nice car

but its not a 335i for better or for worse. Not an S4 either. Can't go that wrong with either car. Enjoy !
