INFINITIIPL G Coupe 2011 - 2013

　　After seeing the roads filled with M-Performance, AMG-line, S-line and R-versions for the premium brands, Infiniti has decided to make its move and invent a department for sportier versions of its vehicles. This is how the IPL (Infiniti Performance Line) was born. Engineers tried to work their skill on the G37 Coupe and, in 2011, they showed what was suppose to keep up with BMW's 335i Coupe, Merc's CLK 350 or Audi's S5 Coupe. They did manage to get right behind them, but not that close.

　　The G37 platform was a very good one, it was also used for the Nissan 370Z, but with all the heavy features installed as standard on the IPL, it was harder to keep up with the big boys. Japanese engineers worked hard and squeezed more ponies from the 3.7-liter V6 engine. They obtained 348 hp and 374 Nm (276 lb-ft) of torque. Standard transmission was a 6-speed manual and a 7-speed automatic was offered as an option.

　　The options list for the G37 IPL had only two button-checks: color and transmission. Everything else was fitted as standard, including navigation, heated seats, XM radio, power-seats, sunroof and light-alloy-wheels.

　　Performance wise, the car was quick, with a 0-100 kph (0-62 mph) sprint in 5.8 seconds and a top speed of 270 kph (168 mph), which was more than the other germans premium coupes, limited to 250 kph (155 mph).
