Do you consider the JX performance? Cuz if you do? I'd like to sell you my Winnebego sport? It's got all the sporty bells and whistles...  |
Scroll up. You said in gigantic bold letters that Infiniti never used a CVT in anything. I presented the JX35. Don't try and spin it like you meant something else. You were proven wrong.
If you're selling anything, I might be interested in trading you my Mazdaspeed3 for your prop plane, but I get the idea that maybe you can't drive stick.

BMW opinions were made by many reviewers since 2008. though the M series holds it's title. The standard 3 series has marginally inferior performance to the G37s but the 3 series is agreed by most reviewers to have better interior.

How is this relevant to the argument again? Also - study up on product lineups a bit dude. The standard 3 series is a 328 - which is not paired against the G37, it's paired against the G25. The 335 is paired against the G37, and having driven both, the 335 is the better car. But my opinion doesn't matter, the sales figures do, and neither G is outselling its BMW counterpart.

As far as the 7AT, you started off thinking the Z had a CVT... lol
The 7At shifts in 300 milliseconds. A feat for a slushbox and SRM was invented on the G37 automatic known as downshift rev-matching. You can hate all day. I've test driven or rented most cars under $50k. I know this much.

FYI - I never said I thought the Z had a CVT. I said I didn't realize JATCO was the manufacturer for the 7AT in the Z. Their name gets thrown around a lot where I work because of the abundant transmission failures in CVT powered Nissans across the board. Nissan had to add a warranty to the CVT to retain customers and not scare off potential new ones. Sure they've improved it, but they'll still never be an option in my book. I will never buy another car with one in it.
Also - Downshift Rev Matching and Synchro Rev Match are two different things - SRM works on up and downshift and was NOT invented on any automatic transmission. And you're off by 200 milliseconds. Or did you upgrade yours to a dual-clutch?
BTW - you missed the JX35 on all those test drives you've taken. Your local Infiniti dealer misses you.

The Z is still a viable entry in the sports arena..

Agreed, but Nissan needs to step it up because their competition definitely has.
