I was in love with the G37 for a while. We had an EX35 at the time and it was an awesome little SUV. I got a lot of G35 loaners also and thought a G37 with a manual would be amazing.

So one day I bought one at Carmax of all places. Luckily they have a 7 day money back guarantee. Color I wanted, great shape, but I found that manual transmission and engine pairing soooo bad. Transmission felt very sloppy, clutch also kinda springy if that makes any sense. Then while the engine felt great in the automatic, in the manual it just felt sooo slow to rev, rev matching was a pita. Ended up returning it before the 7 days were up. Only car I have ever owned that I think is actually way better as an automatic.

But maybe it's just me, lots of people like the manual on it.
