This is a great, well-made car. Have had no repairs in 6.5 years, only scheduled maintenance. Only problem is no space for a spare tire so if you have a flat you're out of luck!

I purchased the G37 Convertible new in November, 2009, and now have ~14k miles on it. Unlike most hard top convertibles, it looks great top up and top down. The car is an absolute blast to drive when the weather is sunny and one can take the top down. With the top up, it is a mediocre performer due to the weight of the retractable top and structural reinforcements. Creature comforts are great - the ventilated seats, iPod Integration, Bluetooth and Bose Audio System - make the car very liveable on a daily basis. Due to the styling, there is limited storage space in the trunk and car. I highly recommend the air deflector for the car - it makes a big difference at highway speeds (70mph+)
Fun, Beautiful, But Premium Price with Poor Materials

We owned this car for three years and absolutely loved the exterior design. I think it's one of the most beautiful cars on the road. However, there were some major issues that start with cheap materials. The cheap plastics in the dash and door panels do not befit a car selling for 50 large. The leather seat material was far less opulent than my Hyundai Genesis, when the doors close you cannot reach the seat adjuster without scratching the aluminum trim on the doors. Build quality was poor. Rubber weatherstripping squeezing out from trim, rattles when top up ands zero trunk space with top down. This is a $30K car with the top chopped off and $23K added to the price. Period.
Having Fun!

This is my first Infiniti (loyal Lexus owner) and I am happy with my choice! I feel this is the best hard-top convertible for the money. It looks great with the top up or down. Considered and drove a BMW 335 Convertible and a Lexus IS 350 Convertible. Did not like the looks of the Lexus and the BMW was $8000 more WITHOUT a Nav system and other features on the Infiniti. PLUS the dealership was FRIENDLY and took GREAT care of me. Overall, I would highly recommend this to someone looking for the perfect blend of luxury, sportiness and value.
Great Car

I leased a new 2010 G37 convertible when my Mercedes Benz CLK350 lease ran out. With the Infiniti, it's like night and day. The G37 is so much faster, handles better and even looks classier, inside and out, than the Mercedes. So far, both Infiniti and the dealer have been great. Responsive and proactive with notices and keeping in touch.

I spent a long time doing research on my next car (4 years) each time I took a car that meet my requirements out on a test drive I was disappointed. I wanted something sporty that wasn't just a flat out race car. BMW got really close. But considering that I got my Infiniti for $45k, when a similarly equipped BMW would have cost $65K, I'm rather happy with how everything turned out.

I've had my convertible G37S for 2 yr. And its not quite a 4 sec. car from 0 to 60 anymore, but it will do it in 5.7 sec. It has everything i would need. Sat. radio, auto lights, auto washer and i love the proximity smart key. I feel spoiled. Its reliable as hell for an 11yr old car. Its only been wrecked once, (In a parking lot when i wasnt there) Gas could be a little better, but THATS why i didnt buy a Volkswagen.

I wanted to get an ND Miata after renting one for 2 weeks on a business trip. We have 3 kids - so my wife wasn't exactly hot on the idea. The requirement was: a manual, convertible, 4-seater that handles well and is reliable. I narrowed it down between this and a 128i convertible 6mt. Glad the deal on the 128i didn't work out. I LOVE driving this car - the clutch is great, great balance and power, handling is actually as good or better than the ND Miata I drove (I think my suspension has been upgraded - it's on rails, but not too stiff). And sounds WAY better. The interior is very nice, and it fits 3 easily. this car os over 13 years old, and the stereo blows away the Miata - really amazing sound. The back seat is better than most give it credit for. I'm 5'9" and my daughter 5'6" can sit behind me comfortibly. I loved that miata, but this really is the swiss-army dad's car. Older than many nice sports cars now, but still holds its own. Only negative is the mpg. If I baby it, I get 26 on the highway and 18 in town. But it's impossible to not rev this engine at least a few times if I'm driving it more than 10 minutes - so much fun. Averaging 21 mpg now at 50/50 city highway. I could get better mpg, but I don't want to - just so much fun. Maintenance is super low - tires aren't that expensive for this model, but they are staggered. I got hifi bluetooth sorted with the aux rca input, and the in-cabin bluetooth call quality is excellent. No, it doesn't have a massive screen or the newest gadgets like lane assist, adaptice crusie, etc - but I got this baby to drive and it does it all - great on the twisties, great on the highway. Way quieter than the Miata on the highway that's for sure. I plan on driving this for a decade. If you can find a clean 6mt convertible G37 - get it while you can.

Beautiful 2009 Infiniti G37 convertible, so much fun to drive with top down but had I known that it would require me to fork out over $6400 to have working airbags I would have passed on this car. Infiniti/Nissan knows that the SRS/OCS are not manufactured to function properly in some vehicles, that is why they have a recall on over 900,000 vehicles yet excluded the 2009 models including mine. The sensor in the passenger seat is defective on some 2009 G37s and works opposite to how it was intended, it cuts off airbags when a passenger sits on the seat. I now own a vehicle I do not feel safe in and would never put the lives of my friends and family in danger. I purchased used less than a year ago after surviving a mva where my 1999 vehicle's airbags helped save my life. How can I in good conscience sell it to anyone? This should be a recall from Nissan/Infiniti as they are aware of the seriousness of severe injury or death as a result of manufacturers defect but refuse to fix on 2009. Also has problem with melting dashboard. Get a different year Infiniti or pass to a car manufacturer that values human life. Just wish I had known.... Addendum: Modern Infiniti of Lake Norman talked to Infiniti USA who came through and replaced defective seat. I did pay to get car up to date on service first but did not have to pay for seat. Infiniti definitely cares about the safety of their customers! Totally changed my mind about owning an Infiniti!

Ordered and waited 3 months for this car to come in (waited to get the optional spoiler). Almost backed out to order the 2010 model. Winter here now so did not get much driving in before I put car away in storage. However this is a great car: looks great and fun to drive. Can't wait for spring and top down driving. Looked at Lexus IS350c, but could not get excited. Somewhat concerned about reports of the seatbelt not retracking and getting slammed in door and breaking door/seat trim. Need to drive more miles to get fuller experience. Would give it all 10's (other than gas mileage), but there is always room to improve! Hope this helps.

Bought the car just over six months ago and continue to be extremely happy i didn't go with the BMW 335 conv. or the Lexus 3C. The car drives really well, wind feels great with the optional wind deflector, and the sound system is awesome. The Sat Nav is almost perfect and the cooled seats put my friends at awe. The only problem is the body rigidity (average), and the damn seat belts. Its enough of a pet peeve that the retractors don't fully retract the belts when I take them off. Next time Infiniti, make sure the seat belts don't get caught by the door when I get out.
Fantastic Sports coupe

Great car with terrific looks. Very dependable and can be serviced by Nissan dealers when the warranty is completed. Watch your speed in this coupe, very quick.

Infiniti Hush Money?

Right after I purchased a 2009 G37 Convertible, I noticed that there was persistent creaking coming from both sides of the rear portion of the hardtop. That night, I put the top down and up, and noticed that the trunk was opened afterward, so I closed it manually. The next morning, I approached my car in the garage to find the trunk opened again. 2 days later, the engine refused to go past 10 mph and the Engine Light was on so I was forced to bring it into the dealership. It's since been over 30 days and Infiniti has tried to solve the problem twice to no avail. I still don't have my car. Most of all, I'm wondering where the other bad reviews are? Can anyone say Infiniti Hush Money?
A car everyone will love!

Just got my new G37 convertible and I LOVE it. Thought about the new Lexus convertible, but didn't like the way it looked. The Infiniti is completely awesome. Great power and all the bells and whistles. The Infiniti dealership treated me like I was some kind of superstar. I'll never buy another car anywhere else. I'm impressed with the car, the service and the dealership. What more could you ask for? I'll have this car for a long time.
In Love!

I was looking to buy the new Lexus IS250c and then test drove the Infiniti G37 convertible and was sold on it! I bought the car the next day! I love my first Infiniti and first convertible. It has enough power to get me in trouble and is sexy on the inside and out! The interior is beautiful and I love the heated/cooled seats!
Love the Car--Hate the Cupholders

I have had my convertible for over a month. I have been waiting for it since Feb. I LOVE everything about it, except the cuphold situation-- or more accurately, the lack of good cupholders. I ordered the manual version and test drove the automatic. Different cupholders! Also, my average gas mileage is about 17.1 mpg. I would love to get the advertised 19-21mpg. I'm still learning all the features to the car, but I am totally enjoying the navigation system and phone/iPod connection. Also, the speakers in the headrest is the best. I will say that the Lexus has more trunk space with the top down than the Infiniti. I only have room for an umbrella and a baseball hat in the trunk.
Glad I Picked This One

Just bought two days ago. Was insistent on purchasing the BMW 335i con. until I drove this car. It had me at hello. I love everything about it. Of course, it has only been two days. If first impressions count, this car is now my baby, and my 5 year old has been upgraded from my baby to my little boy.

What a fun car. Sexy lines, smooth and powerful. Got Pacific Sky with Stone. Base, prem, navi, chrome sport package wheels, rear deflector. Researched for a year, waiting on latest models. For us the Infiniti beat out the BMW's, Lexus was no comparison, 370Z, and MB. Also, really wanted a hard top for all weather and noise reduction. Have had trouble with the seat belts getting caught by the door but unbuckled them from the leather strap on the seat to let them retrac all the way. Pain reaching back for it but better. Planning a 2k mile trip first of Spring, can't wait to pop the top and go.
Having some fun!

Have been driving my G37S for 2 months - still putting a smile on my face! Acceleration with the manual transmission is a hoot, and sport suspension / handling is fabulous. Looked at the BMW 335, and besides the fact that there wasn't a single non- black manual transmission to be found ANYWHERE, and the fact that the same features would be $10k more, and the fact that it doesn't have that awesome Bose sound system, the G37 Sport 6 speed was still my favorite. Even fit the kids in the back, so it's practical, too (ok, I'm a roadster convert, so it's all relative). I LOVE this car!

I have had the car for about five months. I love it! For the money, you can't beat it. It is fun to drive (the performance is amazing). The creature comforts are great. It also looks stunning. If you look at other hard top convertibles, no other make comes close to making the hard top look like the coupe the way Infiniti does. All around awesome car.
