I feel that G35 is actually roomier inside than the GS.

What isn't? The GS is small inside compare to it's competitors. The IS is suppose to be the competitor to the G, not the GS, yet dimensionally they are similar.

Styling is ho-hum. Typical G. It will perform ok, interior is typical, will handle well. An inevitable next step.

The G37 is a sweet ride, my father gets them as loaners when he takes the FX50 in for service, he thinks it's POS, but I can't argue with a 70 year old man

I test drove the G37 sedan and it made my GS feel like it was made for Bob Hope. The GS is a better looking car imho.

The G37 is nice and for what you get for the money its awesome. I have to say though that those new wheels are very ugly. The current sport wheel is the best.

i test drove g37 sedan manual as well.. ride was little bumpy but good handling.. i guess that would be expected with the sport suspension. back seat was surprisingly roomier than i expected.. didn't realize it had a similar measurement as gs.. my only complaint was cheap looking interior which lacks the refinment.. doors seemed very light(weight), not sure if it's a good or bad thing.. overall, nice driver's car for the money.. i like to try their new gen navigation..
