So I'm driving around town yesterday, and I'm stopped at a long light behind a train, and a dude in a G37 sedan that is stanced out yells out to me that he thinks the stance on my car looks really off because I have more wheel gap in the rear than the front, and it just ruins it for him...

I had time to explain to him that I had to raise my rear up over an inch above the front, because when I hit the loud pedal, the thing squats so hard that the shocks bottom out, and it gets a little dicey. To which he proclaimed that I was full of ****.

Man, I didn't realize G37's were sooooo SLOW I smashed him by almost 2 cars through the light, and it only took me 7 seconds from a 60 roll to go from a whole length behind, to a whole length ahead giving him the handicap needless to say, he dove off the freeway asap after that.

Sweet! Nice to hear a C5 putting a G37 in its place. My luck if I did that, a cop would be sitting on a side street and see us go blazing by.

Yes that V8 power!!! Whey too smoke him!!

Is there something special about a G37 I should know about? That's not a car I would waste my time with if it pulled up next to me...

it wasn't about the car, it was about shutting the guys mouth !!!!!!

They are nothing to write home about, however, given the stats, I'm not suprised someones that's driven 80's Hondas' their whole life, can feel that this car has a lot of power.

The sedans are 3882lbs, and have a 330hp V6 outta the 370z, but they have a fancy 7-speed auto, and some models are AWD, which can make the coupes pretty snappy at 3500lbs...but not the sedan

I'm almost 1000 lbs lighter than him, and have more than his crank HP at the wheel, so I knew I had this one in the bag. I normally wouldn't give him the time of day....but damn, this dude was literally ASKING for it plus he had like $6k wheels, and what looked like the gucciest titanium exhaust I'd ever seen on a 4-door.

He needed to be knocked down a peg er' two.

If you're a rude *** hole, AND you can't even back it up, then you are just a stupid douchebag.

theyre pretty quick cars honestly. Almost the same power as a base c5, and a lot better gearing if it's a newer one.

I can't believe he didn't like the stance on your car. I think it looks awesome.: thumbs:

It was a facelift model, so had to be the one currently in production. A G37 coupe, with the track pack, or the IPM version (Infiniti performance model) with basic bolt ons, and a tune, will walk a base '01 coupe. But I don't think he had that, and I most certainly have more than that

However, my '07 BMW 328i coupe is door-door with those racier models of the G37 coupes, and it is significantly slower than the C5.

Thanks I spents months adjusting the height, waiting for it to jounce, corner balancing, and I think I have it really dialed in for a car that gets driven real hard. I can go lower, but it's not a driver anymore, it's a show car, and that ain't me

I don't see anything off, except someone tagged your ***.

ErikwithAK01

I didn't think you would go in for the bronze zeevette. Just as long as it isn't lime green?

G37 sedans are sweet daily drivers. I am currently shopping for an AWD G37X to replace my current daily.

Outrun this and you have a FAST CAR!

Must be more of the Social Media effect - today people think their opinion matters - it doesn't and nobody in their right mind cares. If someone said that to me, I would just say "Then don't look at me!"

I have been driving everyday for 50 years and never had someone criticize my car at a red light! Sounds like someone need to get a life.

soofrsh

I get the same reaction to the wheel gap on the rear of my vette, I just tell them "she squats"

My stock C5 is INSANELY fast......of course I had been driving a Ford F250 Super Duty for
10 years so any car feels fast after that...lmao
