Pricing Released For G Coupe And Convertible


Recommended Posts

Thought id post this up incase anyone was wondering. $85k for the base G37. Less then i expected, but still too much..

Further to my previous correspondence, I have attached a pre-launch brochure for you for now and hope to have the full brochure, with specifications, available within the next 10 days.

Pricing was released this week for the new model and is set at $84,970.00 for the GT Premium Coupe, $92,950.00 for the S Premium Coupe and $97,570.00 for the S Premium Convertible; these figures all become more impressive when I highlight that they are inclusive of all on road costs making the G Coupe and Convertible extremely compelling alternatives to the status quo.

Our demonstration models arrived yesterday and are available to drive at your convenience.

I will be in touch throughout the week to see if I can help any further; please let me know if I can answer any questions or help to arrange a drive for you at any stage.

Many thanks,

Still a rip off.....

See how much they cost in the US of A.

You can't compare them to what they cost in the US, everything is cheaper in the US. A 335i doesn't cost a hell of a lot more than a G37 in the US but they are well over $100,000 here.

more likely that their market is much much larger leading to better economies of scale and increased purchasing power for the consumer.

But probably the biggest impact on pricing in Australia is the 30% LCT (luxury car tax) we put on top of the 10% GST tax - that's 40% of the cost of the car in taxes alone.

It's actually 43% total increase. 30% LCT is added on the the sub total to which 10% GST is added.

Hence, vehicle = $100k. Multiply by 1.3 for LCT (130k now). Then multiply by 1.1 for GST. Therefore total cost of vehicle is now $143k.

There are ways around that, but that's another story....

At the end of the day, stuff costs less in the US because they have a lower cost of living and hence salaries are lower - in general.

We assist in placements in the US from time to time and you'd be astonished as to what the differnce can be.

For mine, not only is the initial buy in a concern but I would suggest the residual value after the warranty expires will be nowhere near the likes of a high end 3 series coupe. But I suppose these cars may well be purchased by business customers who can offset this via depreciation.

Infiniti (or its distributor) really need to get its pricing right as price reductions later on down the track is akin to burning bridges with existing customers.

    • that's pretty good condition, those chips are nothing. Get a mobile repairer to sort it out. Nice wheels, I had white 17's on my GT-R once, looked nice.
    • Found a car that has kiki desing wheels on it with diffrent plates that match a 2008 model when clearly it's not white  
    • Howdy friends, So this evening I had a need to remove the rear compressor turbo pipe (long story, but I'm replacing it due to a bolt snapping off in the pipe and managing to then snap an extraction bit in the broken bolt, fun times -_-). The rear bolt is a bit of a bastard and very little room to get good leverage. I was able to get a 12 mm socket onto the bolt head, but none of my ratchets were able to fit, so I put together a "stubby" socket wrench to get it out and it worked surprisingly well 🙂. In the past I've "made" tools by cutting down spanners and bending them with a torch etc, but this 3D printed wrench was way less effort. I'll be keeping this one in my "special tool draw" from now on for sure ^_^b https://www.printables.com/model/868973-half-inch-stubby-socket-wrench
    • It looks even better in Person 
    • It's good, but not as good as some people make it out to be on social media. Yes, you can feel the torque come in earlier, yes, it does make the car feel more lively below 4000rpm, and yes, it does feel more responsive, but it's not this 'unicorn' mod.  Everyday driving? Below 100km/h on Australian roads, it's worth it. At 110km in 6th gear mine will sit on about 2860rpm. Doing a Motorkhana or a small circuit? Yes, it's worth it. Doing Texas style speed runs? Prob not. Do you use the gears more? Yes and No. Doing 60/70km on most roads, I'm using the gears just like any other Getrag. 80km and above, you use 5th and 6th more often. Absolutely no issues driving with the 33 A-LSD. Didn't change the front diff, only changed the C&P wheel. Some people say to upgrade to a Quaife etc, but i've had no issue with torque steer or having it wander all over the road. The one thing that no-one really addresses is the issue of the Speedo being out. It's either use a speedo corrector, find a 33 gearbox speed sensor, or use an aftermarket display with GPS speedo.
