Used 2013 INFINITI G Coupe Consumer Reviews

A better price to performance ratio doesn't exist...

I recently leased a 2013 G37S 6MT.Simply stated, this car provides the best bang-for-the-buck of any rear-wheel drive, sporting/luxury coupe on the market.That’s it.Overall this car is about BALANCE.The Infiniti doesn’t do anything the BEST, just a lot of things really WELL - and for a sensible price.The stiffer ride, vibrating shifter, slight wind and road noise, and raucous engine are all meant to remind you that you are driving a sporting vehicle, not a Lexus LS.With that said, it still is an Infiniti so it is reliable, beautiful and reasonably luxurious.A BMW 335 is a more refined car with similar performance, but costs WAY more and is completely anonymous looking (in my opinion).

So Far I Really Like the Car

I purchased the car in November, 2011. No significant complaints so far. The acceleration is very good and the car handles well. The interior is nice and it is comfortable (except for the rear seats, which are cramped). Gas mileage isn't great, but I knew that when I bought the car. Compared to a BMW 3 series (which is what I had and which I was considering buying again), the value of this car can't be compared. It would've cost probably $15,000 more for a comparably equipped 335 BMW, and the Infiniti has a bigger engine (330 hp). The manual transmission is smooth and has a very short movement, which is nice. The Infiniti also uses standard motor oil, unlike the BMW.

Fantastic Vehicle

Just sold it but miss it already. Had a G37xs Coupe for a little over three years and was a wonderful vehicle. It's shortcomings are easily known; tiny trunk, small back seat but other than that, there aren't many. Extremely reliable, great mpg considering the power, nice sound system, comfortable seats and awesome handling. Some surprises were how well it went in the snow. Replaced the factory Yokohama's with Continental DWS 06 and the thing was a tank and that's with the sport package / 19" wheels. The only thing I had to do besides standard maintenance was replace the pads and rotors due to warpage. Recommend this car to anyone provided they don't need a lot of space.

Thank you Infiniti for building this car FOR ME

Having spent the past 14 years with an ultimate driving machine and after seeing the professional reviews, I initially didn't have high expectations for the IPL coupe. I was pleasantly surprised. This is one of the few beautiful coupes that are still made. It's a well build and layed out car. When driven mildly, it's a well composed tourer. When driven agressively, it provides a high level of confidence for the causal driver. At it's heart is a long time award winning engine matched to a capable transmission. If you're tire of performance vehicles that are great track machines, but harsh daily drivers, you owe it to yourself to take a test drive.

Love driving this car, pure sports luxury.

Although gas mileage could be better, but that's not why you buy this car. It is the luxury sports car that I always wanted. My 2012 G37 is wonderful, it makes a statement not only an entrance. From that throaty sound from the 330 hp, nice leather interior, and the wide stance it has on the road, traveling for two at it's best.

Reliable, looks good, performs well

I bought this car certified pre-owned in 2104 with 28k miles. I canceled the dealer's extended warranty after a few days, which would have been a waste of $2,800, as I suspected. Since, it is now 2017, and I have not needed any repairs, other than new tires, which was my choice for a softer grip on the street. I didn't drive it for a few weeks and had to jump start it once. That was the only inconvenience, besides the battery on the keychain dying on me, and I almost got stranded, since they didn't tell me how to start the car with a dead fob. You take the key out of the underside, open the door manually, and insert the dead fob into the dashboard above your left knee. That should allow it to start. Then order a replacement battery on Amazon and install it yourself. It's easy to do and saves a trip to the dealer and some money. One con: the car sits too low for me and offers a poor view of the street, compared to an SUV. Getting in and out is a pain. I'm 6'2", though. I talked to a car guy who said the Infiniti lasts a long time. Other models I have seen here, like the Range Rover Evoque, seem to always break down. So the Infinit gives some peace of mind there. I might get a Nissan Rogue, though, to have a higher perch and more interior room. This G37x a sharp sports car, though.

Nothing Else Like It

I love my G37x. It’s fast, smooth, and fun to drive. It’s unique design is always breathtaking-at nearly every angle, you see the designer’s passion for this car. The technology is easy to figure out, and serves its purpose well. Infiniti service is amazing, and thoughtful. The new Infiniti Q60s are using smaller, 2 liter turbocharged engines. They’re nice, but the 3.7 liter V-6 VVEL engine is incredibly fast and has an impressive exhaust note. The rear seats are not designed for anyone over the age of 10, but as long as the trip is not more than 2 hours, they will suffice. It’s a coupe, and the focus is on the cockpit. Fuel economy is acceptable, but it is a trade off for the power. You really need to buy premium fuel- more than one mechanic has stated that it is still cheaper at the pump than at the service department.

Lookin' Good and Haulin' Ass!

I currently own a black, 2013 G37s Journey Coupe IPL, and I loved it the moment I saw it on the Infiniti showroom floor. It’s so much fun to drive because with staggered tires, it hugs the road when cornering at a higher speed without skidding. In the pouring rain, it handles 85 mph no problem and it plows through puddles, no losing control or hydroplaning whatsoever. It stops on a dime and when you punch it, it takes off like a rocket! It is pricy when it comes time to change the tires as, because they aren’t rotated, the rear tires are a unique size, and the compound is softer, they wear a lot faster than the standard tires (about every 24,000 mi). I am on my 3rd set and replacement for all 4 runs approx. $1600+, not including balance and alignment. But, for the handling, it’s totally worth it because it feels secure. Considering it’s a sport vehicle, it’s excellent on gas. The only drawback is the paint. It’s softer and being black, it scratches very easily. I have a ceramic coating on it however, if you don’t get it done right away, you’ll get chips on the hood within the first week driving it, like me. Unfortunately, I wasn’t aware of the delicacy, nor did I know about ceramic coatings. Also, the angling of the windshield and being lower to the ground, the windshield gets chipped easily. There’s plenty of trunk space. It can fit 11 paper bags full of groceries. The seats are incredibly comfortable because both driver and passenger sides adjust to contour around you for total support. They are heated, when needed, temperature and dual controlled, as well. AC is provided in the back; skirted airbags front and back; total Bose surround sound system; standard GPS and Bluetooth in dash; push button start; heated mirrors; garage door/gate programmable rear mirror; rain sensor wipers. The only thing missing are winged doors. But it’s the best car I’ve ever bought! I’m a very happy G37s owner, I think you would be too!

G37 Owner Review

I have recently purchased a G37 Sport MT and I am a very satisfied owner. In the past, I owned a subaru wrx and have driven many other high performance vehicles. The G37 acceleration is uplifting, the handling is responsive, the brake system is solid, and the noise is addicting. The car is also equipped with an aggressive front end, massive brakes, and a smooth stance. If you have the proper means of 50k I suggest following so. Purchasing this car was a very difficult decision and I guarantee that you will be pleased with the outcome.

My new man

My husband passed in 2013 and I always wanted a blue Infiniti and finally got one. It’s my new man, he doesn’t argue with me, takes me anywhere I want to go and doesn’t piss me off.

G37 a Great Car for a Gentleman

I love this coupe. It rides very smooth ; 7 gear box makes it fast and smooth. It is a 2+2 : observing rear seats only allow for children.

Classy & Elegant

Recently purchased a used 2013 inifiniti G37s. I didn't want AWD. Came from a 2015 Hyundai Genesis coupe. This car is much more beautiful, from all angles. Per Carfax, all Maintenance done at Infiniti dealer. Car is a joy to drive, even at 12 years old now. Enough power when you need it. Could see why it cost $50,000 new in 2013. Found one that was 100% stock from Florida, no rust. Just about to hit 90,000 miles. These engines are pretty indestructible! Make sure to use premium gas. Gas mileage seems to be in the 19/21 range with normal driving.

Great Car for Two

Love the car. Acceleration, steering, comfort, ride and so much more. I use it as a commuter, but it is also my weekend trips fun car. The truck is small, but you can lay down the back seat. The back seat has limited legroom for passengers on long rides, but OK for short trips. I just test drove a 2016 Q50, it is a great car, but I will drive this one for several more years, too much fun.

Pros and Cons

Pros: Like many others have said, the price to performance ratio is ridiculous. Very reliable, only a couple of problems over 70,000 miles of ownership. In my opinion the best looking car that you can buy for under $15,000. Expected to last until at least 125,000 miles, maybe 150,000. E46 M3 performance while spending $2,000 less per year in maintenance/repairs. Cons: I cannot emphasize this enough, the dealer network is so soo bad. They are incapable of handling anything beyond routine maintenance. If you even ask for fully synthetic oil when you look at the receipt you will see that they neglected to do it. Girlfriend had an INFINITI and at the dealership they clearly backed her car into something and returned it without saying anything. Car has had a few reliability issues. A leak that resulted in the engine having to be pulled, this occurred sometime before 50,000 miles and was covered. Another issue, according to the dealer, was the brake switch failing resulting in the car not being able to accelerate above 35mph, resulting in a tow. Corporate said initially that they would reimburse for the rental car as the dealership had none available. When I called they said it was the dealerships responsibility and the dealership blamed corporate. Never was reimbursed. This was between 60,000-70,000 miles and was a relatively inexpensive fix <$300 but was NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY! Because of COVID the dealers have all had to return the majority of their loaner cars and are in an agreement with Enterprise. And not to sound like a Karen but originally when dropping off your car for service you would get to drive a brand new QX60, now be prepared for some real $#%+boxes, the latest was a Hyundai with a loud knocking sound above 65mph. There is a reason that they are talking about potentially discontinuing the brand.

Drive one and you'll be hooked

I'm on my third Infinity after owning makes from almost every major car maker, foreign and domestic. I'm into cars that have style, power and luxury and the Infinity G-37S has it all and then some. Moreover, it has a price point well below other makes in the same category. None of my Infinitys have required anything more than oil and filter change over the last five years, except for a battery replacement. Fuel consumption is close to 20 miles per gallon in town(where I mostly drive), which I don't think is bad for a 350hp car. It's a real treat to drive a car with paddle shifters and be able to switch from drive to sport mode. This car comes with all the extras that most people could ever want and reliability seems built in by the manufacturer.

I would buy this car again and probably will!

The only drawback I have is that I can't stream music from a phone or ipod using bluetooth. I do have a bluetooth phone for calls. I absolutely love the acceleration with this engine. The new Q60's (formerly G37) have changed the engines to a 3.0 turbo so I'll have to see how they perform in comparison to the 3.7. Also and foremost, how much fun they are and how reliable they are before I shell out what they're asking. I purchased this car used with 20k miles on it. It looked new inside and out and had no accidents. I don't have the navigation and don't need it. It has all the other bells and whistles including embroidered leather seats which they no longer offer. I'm seeing a lot more of these on the road now. I also owned a 2008.

DONT BUY THESE CARS!

My car was 2 years old and got 2 smaller rust spots that bubbled the paint then came through. It had a very large rust spot on the door. I took it to the dealer to have it covered under the warranty, after I couldn't reach anyone. They blew me off till the warranty expired and acted like they didn't know I brought the car in even though i had their info and business card. Finally i went on social media and got an instant response. I took the car back in and now they say that the rust was caused by the roads. How does it bubble from under the paint then come thru if it was a chip. Infiniti just lost a customer for life, and to think I was going to buy another one. Now the car is worthless just like their warranty.

2013 G37 Infiniti Purchase Upgraded from 99 I30

No more INFINITIs for me!

Whoever designed the electronics and switches was an out-and-out sadist. Swittch and control placement is, to put it politely, illogical and difficult to understand. The display is awkward, and takes a computer geek to operate. The seats are uncomfortable, and there is no padding at all on the bottom of the driver's seat. I'm five-eight, and I hit my head on the top of the door opening when I get into the vehicle, so it appears they designed it for very, very short drivers only. I bought the car used, and there was no manual. Like an idiot, I downloaded the manual on my computer, and found that it's about as long as the Old Testament, and it's damn near impossible to find anything in it that you need to know. The back seat is ok, but there is no headroom for anybody above three feet in height, and it is ideal for midgets with no legs. It's noisier than a junker 1951 Ford Pickup I drove when I was in High School! I hope that INFINITI hires a designer experienced in designing automobiles. This only bears a vague resemblance to a good car.

G37X

Great car need more space for the kids.

Rare G37SxCoupe

This is the Type S trim and performance package with Infiniti's most excellent all-wheel drive. I also have an extra set of the Infiniti rims (Retail at $1,000 each) with Bridgestone Blizzak snow tires (the best performing snow tires; about $1,100 for 4).
