VQ37VHR 3.7 V6 successor to the G35 (2008-2013). Sedan, coupe, and convertible. Up to 348 horsepower.

The Infiniti G37 replaced the G35 and grew the VQ engine to 3.7 liters with variable valve event and lift (VVEL). Output rose to as much as 348 horsepower. It came as a sedan, a coupe, and a retractable hardtop convertible, all rear-wheel drive with optional all-wheel drive on the sedan. The G37 kept the formula that made the G35 a hit: a rear-drive chassis, a strong naturally aspirated V6, and pricing below the German rivals. It remains a popular and affordable platform for enthusiasts. On WhipJury, G37 coupes with mild bolt-ons and wheel and suspension setups are a regular sight.

Frequently asked questions about Infiniti G37

What is the difference between G35 and G37?
The G37 uses a larger 3.7 liter VQ37VHR V6 with VVEL variable valve lift, making more power (up to 348 horsepower) than the G35 3.5 liter unit. The G37 also added a convertible body and revised styling and interior.
Does the G37 come with a manual?
Yes. A 6-speed manual was available on the coupe and on the Sport sedan. Most cars sold were 7-speed automatics, so manual examples are more sought after by enthusiasts.
Is the G37 reliable?
Yes, broadly. The VQ37VHR is robust. Watch for the same age-related items as any car of this era: suspension bushings, tire wear, and occasional VVEL-related noises. Maintenance history matters more than mileage.
Is the G37 the same as the Q60?
The first Q60 was essentially a renamed G37 coupe and convertible for the 2014 model year. Infiniti later launched an all-new Q60 in 2017 with a twin-turbo V6, which is a different car.
Is the G37 a good tuner car?
Yes. It is rear-drive, shares much with the 370Z, and has strong aftermarket support for intakes, exhausts, suspension, and forced induction. It is one of the better-value enthusiast coupes of its era.
