do you recommend a BMW 335i xdrive over an infiniti G37 AWD?




Brian Turn


Why should I buy one over the other? What are the positives and negatives over each car?


Answer
Great question. I am a previous "owner" of a 2007 BMW 328I sedan, I now currently have a 2009 Infiniti G37 sedan. First off Infiniti is a great great great Luxury automobile. Admittingly I am a tad bit superficial and picky when it comes to purchasing/leasing a car. My previous Lease was a 2007 BMW 328i sedan, I can honestly tell you that when it comes to performance and luxury Infiniti hands down takes the title. I am very content with my 09 G37 sedan, it has been nothing but a dream so far. I currently have the Journey package on my G37, I decided not to opt for the Navi package seeing that I already had a GPS (Tom Tom) from the previous BMW I had. Anyway with or without the Navi package I still got the LCD screen on my G37, BMW never gave me that. It looks way more modern and sophisticated when compared to BMW's interior designs. Dont get me wrong I loved BMW but I thought the car lacked a little bit in the performance and luxury department for the money I was paying for monthly. Now Im paying about just $50 more then my previous lease and its well worth the little extra money for everything im getting standard in the G37. By the way the G37 sedan just got facelift and a few interior changes for 2010 and it looks amazing! The 2010 BMW 335Xi will cost you $42,600 (standard) and it will only produce 300 HP while the 2010 Infiniti G37X AWD sedan will produce 328 HP and it will cost you $37,000 (standard) and fully loaded will cost you $47,000-$50,000 while the BMW 335xi will cost you $51,000-$55,000 when fully loaded. Not to mention that when you opt for a Journey package on a 2010 Infiniti G37 sedan you will now get a Rear view camera and Rear sonar detection system standard on the G37 without opting for a Nav system. When i leased my 2009 G37 inorder to get the rear view camera you had to opt for the Navi package. My 2009 G37 Journey package included Handsfree Bluetooth, heated front seats, Diming rear view mirror, automatic tilt and teliscopic steering wheel and memory seats while in the 2010 G37 journey package now includes extras such as a rearview camera and rear sonar system. Although my previous BMW had xenon headlights I had to opt inorder to get them while all infiniti's come standard with Dual xenon headlight regardless of the package you choose. As you can tell i did my research before leasing the Infiniti, I couldnt be happier.

EDIT: Dont pay attention to the last guy he clearly doesnt no anything about Infiniti or BMW, he's just a BMW fanatic i highly doubt he is a personal owner of either. Infiniti will give you a loaner car with out charge, usually all luxury manufacturers do this such as Lexus, Infiniti, BMW and Mercedes. If you read into Infiniti they call it the "Infiniti Total Ownership Experience"

Answer
There are a host of body kits available for the 3 series. I believe the 03 bread n butter cars do have the M3 style headlights but keep in mind (and please correct my if I am wrong) the M3 has a wider track, hence the car's wide-bodied look. This means you will have to go far beyond just upgrading the body panels and get into supension and wheels. Your best bet? While I love E46's, buy a first generation M3 (86-93 or so) if you can find one. They have the 4-cyl block from BMW's F1 effort of the time, and produce around 195hp which is 20 more than an 03 325. Not to mention, they are classics.
