It proved so worthy an entry in the U.S. market that it earned our 2003 <a href="http://autoindustrynews.blogspot.com">Motor Trend</a> Car of the Year award for its efforts.<br /><br />For the second generation, the Infiniti G lineup has received numerous revisions, a bigger, more powerful 3.7L engine, and now, a drop-top version in the form of the 2009 <a href="http://infinitisecrets.blogspot.com">Infiniti G37 Convertible</a>. Infiniti's second convertible might as well be its first, since few remember the short-lived M30 produced during the brand's formative years.<br /><br />Arriving next spring, the hardtop <a href="http://infinitisecrets.blogspot.com">G37 Convertible</a>, which is making its debut at the 2008 Los Angeles auto show, will have several differences from its coupe relative. Infiniti says the design from the A-pillar back is all-new, including structural reinforcements in the chassis, a modified rear suspension, a wider rear track (62.8 in. with 18-in. wheels, 62.6 in. with 19-in. ones versus 61.4 in. for the coupe), and an extra 1.1 in. of overall width. The convertible hardware also adds a good chunk of extra weight, with the drop-top weighing between 4095 and 4110 lb versus the coupe's 3616-3668-lb weight range. The switch from top up and top down won't be lightning fast, either, with <a href="http://infinitisecrets.blogspot.com">Infiniti</a> saying that raising or dropping the top will take about 30 sec.<br /><br />Other convertible-only modifications include pop-up rollbars, an adaptive climate-control system that adjusts with vehicle speed and top position, and a special type of aluminum interior trim that can be switched out for African rosewood. Convertible-only options include a wind deflector, climate-controlled seats, and a 13-speaker <a href="http://autoindustrynews.blogspot.com">Bose Open Air sound system</a> that features two speakers in both front headrests. Designed specifically for the G37 Convertible, the system uses digital signal processing and a noise-monitoring microphone to adjust sound to compensate for wind and other ambient noise.<br /><br /><a href="http://infinitisecrets.blogspot.com">BACK TO INFINITI SECRETS HOMEPAGE:</a>http://infinitisecrets.blogspot.com/2008/12/first-look-2009-infiniti-g37.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Robert Linkonis Sr.)1
