In late 2005, Leftlane uncovered a trademark for the name “Infiniti G37.” Then came the Infiniti Coupe Concept in January 2006. A year later, Nissan released an official sketch of new G coupe. This week, the automaker officially confirmed the G37 would arrive in April. If all that isn’t enough, the spies at KGP Photographer have just delivered the first image of a G37 prototype in testing.
The car was shot at sunrise, after being out for a nighttime test drive. A front view was impossible, but our spies did manage to catch the rear-corner view as it escaped back to the test track.
As previously reported, the G37 will feature a 3.7 liter powerplant — slightly larger than the one featured in the G35 sedan. More importantly, it’s worth noting that the engine is in fact a less powerful version of the high-output V6 that will propel the GT-R supercar. While the GT-R will feature twin turbos, the G37 will probably be naturally aspirated.
Nissan has done a good job of keeping the G37 under wraps, so we don’t expect any further photos until the officially unveiling. The first images of the G37 will appear on Leftlane in just two weeks — March 28th. The car will be on display in early April at the New York Auto Show.

It’s too soon. Must wait until disguise is lifted. Love the G35 coupe, though. The sedan looked a bit more than a little fat. I’m a bit put off that AWD wasn’t offered with the Coupe as well.

AWD version plus a lower powered twin turbo option will probably be available.
I wonder what engine choices Japan gets…

Also, notice that the wheels are exactly the same as in the official drawing, as are the headlights from that official photo released earlier today.

Can’t wait for the CTS coupe to come along and put the G37 to shame.

Still too early to see anything on this car though.

I know this car is going to look and perform great. I’ll wait to see the CTS coupe to decide which one I like more, and you gotta throw the new S5 in the mix too.

mabe if they make an awd cts-v coupe, but then that would be in a league with the gtr. i would absolutely love a cts coupe, dont care if its slower than the competition at all, the cts looks so much better than the g35 sedan, and i think the coupe will look better too, but as to blow it away, i dont think so but dont care, the cts already handles better than the infinity competion so mabe there is a slim chance, but doubt it.

335i and e92 M3 already own this thing. Nice car but if you want something that’ll hold its value, perform, and look nice (imo). Get the Bimmer instead. That’s my take.

“mikeh240″, that’s YOUR opinion.
The ‘03-’06 G coupe makes the 3 look like crap and this new coupe will continue to do so. The marginal performance increase the 3 has is just that, marginal. You may also want to look at resale values of these cars … there is very little difference 4 years later, especially considering that the 3 costs quite a bit more to initially buy.
But the world is made up of all kinds so you are entitled to your opinion.
