2010 Infiniti G37 Convertible - CNET
Sporty, luxurious, high-tech, and affordable, Infiniti's G models combine attributes that make them very popular. But for the 2010 model year, Infiniti takes the G a step further by offering a convertible version, adding a fun-in-the-sun factor and keeping the car competitive with the BMW 3-series and Lexus IS convertibles. Like its competitors, the 2010 Infiniti G37 Convertible uses a retractable hard top, an excellent means of providing the security and weather protection of a metal roof while still allowing open-top driving. But retractable hard tops have their downsides as well, which make themselves more than apparent in the G37 Convertible. With the top down, trunk space is usually affected, and we've never seen it worse than with the G37 Convertible. And retractable hard tops also throw off weight distribution, an issue in a sports car. Although the G37 Convertible's top is fully automatic, as all the driver needs to do is push a button to make it go up or down, it seemed to take longer than other cars we've tested to complete its full operation. In some ways, we felt the convertible top ruined a perfectly good car. At low speeds driving around a city, the car lacked the refinement we would expect from Infiniti. Source: www.cnet.com
