New family car

[TJH64]

With the lease on my wife's 2006 Infiniti G35x due up in May, I have spent the last month or so researching and test driving several cars including the 2010 Ford Taurus limited AWD, 2010 Buick LaCrosse CXS FWD and the 2010 Cadillac CTS AWD, I ended up getting another Infiniti G37X.

This is a leftover 2009 model, Slate Blue metallic, 328 HP 3.7 liter V6, 7 speed auto AWD and capable of low 5 second 0-60, and high 13 second 1/4 miles times. This thing is a blast to drive, it handles unbelievable and the V6 pulls hard.

Here are e few pics

nice ride!

Sweet! You have good taste! It looks like mine, only mine is a 2007 with the 3.5L. I love mine, and can only imagine how more fun it would be with the 3.7L.

Those are nice! I looked at them when I decided to get rid of my Lincoln.... Went with a big truck instead.

Either way, VERY nice new whip!

Sweet car, its on the short list for my wife as well, but I'm thinking I want the new SHO.
BTW, what mpg do you guys see real-world in the AWD Infinities around here?

My average is 20mpg, and that is with mostly in-town driving around Altoona. I've seen 25mpg on the highway and the lowest the on-board MPG average has ever been is 18.8 when I was constantly watching it shift at 7200rpms. :) I do drive my "normal" cars conservatively though.

Thanks Paul, that is what I was expecting. She's fighting the idea of an SUV (I want an Aviator to also tow) and that is close to the same mpg her FWD Maxima gets around here.
