Canadian Driver - Test Drive: 2007 Infiniti G35x







Trying to play catch-up with the BMW 335i is a thankless task. Yes, the G35x is not quite as integrated, not quite as quick, not quite as solid and not quite as marvelous a driving tool, but at $43,390, it undercuts the Bimmer considerably.

The all-wheel-drive BMW 335xi, which should arrive in late April, will carry an MSRP of $52,500.

Currently, if you want all-wheel-drive in a 3-series, you're looking at the $43,600 230-hp 328xi.

But heck, playing second fiddle to BMW ain't so bad. What the G35x does offer is character, a passionate driving experience and a healthy measure of security in inclement weather. Looking out my window at another raging snowstorm, I'm happy for that.

I much prefer this to the Acura TL-S they tested a few weeks ago, a regular G35 Sport that is not the AWD X model.
