  • 2012 Infiniti G37 Sedan

    The last major update for Infiniti’s midsize G37 came in 2007 for the sedan, 2008 for the coupe and 2009 for the convertible.

Even rival Lexus is in the midst of an impressive update cycle, with new GS and ES models either here or on the way.

  • 2012 Infiniti G37 Sedan
