The 2009 BMW 335 coupe or the 2009 Infinity G37 coupe? I want to ask this question on this forum because I have much respect for your opinions. Also bear in mind that a comparably equipped 335 will cost alomost $10,000 more than the Infinity and that the BMW is slightly faster.

JBat · 3 November 2008, 03:13 AM

The 335 all the way. No comparison in my mind. Quite simply the Bimmer is a better drivers car, and that always wins out with me. Yes, the Infinity is a better value, but if driving is your thing, you'll be much happier in the BMW.

I always thought Infinity was a great car, especially the Q45, however the Infinity line just never took off, and I wonder what type of resell value the Infinity line has. The safer bet would probaly be the BMW.

I'll take a BMW over an Infiniti any day of the week!

astcell · 3 November 2008, 03:52 AM

BMW by far.

An Infiniti is like the top of the line Timex. ;-)

Having had to part with by old 325i which I loved so my wife could get a Toyota Highlander to totel around all her damn plants.....I would take the BMW
but the upkeep is going to be more....90 bucks for oil change is insane, it maybe more
now?
I started doing it myself till my lower back gave out....
Im a "do it yourselfer" in more ways than one since im over 50

X2.
IMO, the BMW looks MUCH better then the Infiniti. Get the BMW. True, it may cost more, but the cost is well worth it IMO. I've never owned a BMW (however, many of my family members have), but have had many for rentals (business trips, etc.) and are very nice cars.

Bmw imho.

BMW for me - those smooth, sexy lines would go well with my bald dome!!

Welshwatchman · 3 November 2008, 06:42 AM

Go with the BMW.

esm · 3 November 2008, 07:35 AM

have you test drove any of these cars?

Have you looked into the maintenance and insurance costs of each?

Will you care about the resale vaule of these cars?

yes,yes and yes. I am now on my second BMW and will probably be buying my third soon. Thanks for all of the replies.

Bmw!

Actually, all BMW's now come with all maintenance covered as well, for 4 years or 48000 miles. This includes oil changes every 15k. If you like oil changes every 7500 miles at $90 a pop, it will probably still be cheaper than a g37. I shopped both of these cars as well... On my 3rd BMW. My out of pocket for maintenance has been less for my 3 BMW's combined than for our 2 year old Toyota SUV.

My choice is the Beemer as after 3 mistakes I finally bought a 335I sedan.......

Wolf · 3 November 2008, 10:18 AM

The 335 is a great car! I had a 2008 for 10 months and it was wonderful. We also have an Infiniti FX35 and had an M35X. The BMW blew them away. The twin turbos on the 335 produce mounds of torque yet it remains refined when you're not into the throttle.

I just traded the 335 in for an 08 M3. I'm still in break in

Ashley · 3 November 2008, 02:54 PM

Infiniti for me! Aadil has a BMW, and shows me pictures of new ones all the time, but I have never liked BMW's at all. And the Infiniti is just so sleek!

scottschoe · 3 November 2008, 05:39 PM

Not a huge fan of the 3 series, but my vote goes to it. Infiniti really bungled the sleek G35 lines.
