2012 Infiniti G37 Sedan Sport 6MT - Editors' Notebook - Automobile Magazine
The Infiniti smacks the competition in one of the intangibles of owning a sport sedan: charisma.

The Infiniti G37 is roughly $1000 less than the Automobile Magazine Four Seasons Volvo S60 T6 AWD, $8000 less than the BMW 335i we recently tested, and $13,000 less than the Audi S4 that came through our office a few weeks prior. If you were thinking that all six-cylinder, 300+ horsepower sport sedans cost about the same, think again.

The Best Cars That Nobody Buys - Automobile Magazine
We Love Them, But Nobody Buys Them.
