Hope you can find the results, I couldn't.

Didn't see actual results, but it seems like the BMW won by a close margin.

So now they're comparing the tiny BMW to the bigger, better-equipped Infiniti.

I tried reading Winding Road last night, but the format was infuriating.  Every other page is an ad, and half of the rest of the pages are ads as well, and on top of that, most of it is links, and once you click on one you can't get back to the page.

I'm not sure why they're comparing these two cars. The Infinity is bigger and costs about $7,000 Cdn. more with the same equipment. The G37 should be compared to the 335i, which come within a couple grand of one another.

The 135i is certainly a hot little car though. I can only imagine a 350-400 hp M version.

Is the G37 poorly equipped? In the US, it's only about a grand more base price, and I find it hard to believe that the BMW comes significantly better equipped than the Infiniti. I'm also not sure how the new G coupe is, but the last one had a bit of a tight back seat, just like the 1 series. Seems like a pretty good comparison to me.

Admittedly, it seems like the 135 is a nicer everyday driver, but I still can't get over how ugly it looks compared to the G37. At least IMO.
