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,

Bla Bla

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.

      Does anybody use the Firestryker or Element sticks?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So, to run the 4g aerials to the booster, I had to get access to the rear bulkhead....bit of a mission. Hot tip, don't offer to help change the rear shocks for a mate with a v37.... Remove seat base, 2 clips that slide forward to release it the it lifts straight out Fold down rear seat (pull in from boot) The side bolster of the rear seat is not connected to the middle parts that fold. To remove unbolt at the bottom bolt then push it up off the top hook Then there is a plastic surround behind the seat back, 2 pop out clips, 2 bastard clips, some swearing at it is out Pop the rear seat latch surround off Remove door surround lower trim then side trim  Remove c pillar trim - 4 clips, pull inwards not forwards Remove metal brace - 5 bolts 1 nut Then you have got to the rear strut top...what a pain!

      If you really want squish back, you can have it put on the piston (at least to some extent).
