Yeah base model G37 sedans are almost impossible to find, that is an unrealistic figure perhaps.
Most of the 'cheaper' G37s come with 'journey' trim that puts it in the 38k range w/ a 4k-ish premium over the base trim.
You might find a few 37k models at most dealers in socal.
The 33k price is probably a marketing gimmick to lure customers into dealers.
The same treatment could be said of the G25.
What's to say the availability of a base model there wouldn't be just as scarce?
Assuming the expensive 'Journey' pkg costs similar (article mentions this trim for G25),
We're talking about a car that's realistically closer to 35k.
Now I can see the appeal of a G25 if
A) it was much cheaper, say about $5-7k all things equal
(A 28k G25 sounds about right imo)
B) it had a tune friendly turbo engine that appealed to enthusiasts
C) it has fuel miser/eco-friendly engine that appealed to CAFE regulations & tree-huggers.
D) served to lure buyers into dealers
Actually a turbo motor would be a great alternative.
You could also throw that in the Z, sell it for cheaper, & satisfy those who demand a new 240sx.
(but call it the 250sx).
