Audi was only willing to to invoice plus first month payment, though going with the Prestige cut me out of my slightly better negotiating position since I had to have it shipped out of state.

As far as the car itself, I loved the power of the Inifiti, but didn't like the handling as much. Interior was nicer on the Audi, and the dash is cheap looking on the Inifiti with a HORRIBLY reflective Nav screen. Audi trunk is enormous in comparison. Also, gas mileage is nice. I can get 35.1 mpg keeping the cruise on 68 mph on 100+ mile trips.

Anyway, go to an Infiniti forum and ask the same question LOL
Im assuming that was a 2009 G37? there apparently are still a lot on the lots as the 2010 switchover was really late (or no one is buying them) I think because of the new front and rear bumpers and such didnt come until december.

Yes, I didn't even think the 2010 was out yet. I got my car January 31st and the Infiniti dealer told me the 2010 would be in around March, and they had no literature on them yet. That infiniti dealer had over 50 G37x cars in stock and they came across as very desperate to sell.

The entry luxury market has not recovered from the recession. A 2009 G37 at $7,000 is a great deal. The A4 is a great car and has advantages over the G. You will give back some of the $7,000 in fuel and service, and oil changes.

Don't accept the Goodyear GS-A OEM Infiniti tires.

they probably just didnt order any, i think you could get a 2010 in december. the only difference really is the bumpers though which look uglier in my opinion.

The 2010 G37x wasn't even mentioned on the Infiniti website during the last week of December when I was buying my car. I see it on there now, and it doesn't look like any real changes happened.

The deal on the G37x was Invoice + $1, then something like a dealer incentive of $2000 off and another $2500 off from Infiniti. This was in Pennsylvania, a few days before the end of the year. This sure beat what Audi was offering, but I was willing to pay more for what I thought was a classier car and better customer service as well.
