Sport Package

When looking to buy an 06 or 07 G35 coupe is it really worth spending the extra money for the sport pkg.?????

Yes. I upped from 03 coupe to 06 sports coupe so it might not be fair, but i feel the difference in all corners

Well it depends....
How much extra are they charging for the sport package?
Do you like the look of the sport bumper more than the non-sport one? Most people do.
And lastly are you going to end up modding the suspension later?
Because if you are there really is no reason to get the sport suspension if it's just going to get swapped out for aftermarket springs/shocks or coilovers.
Unless like I mentioned before u really prefer the front sport bumper.

Im not planning to do anything to the suspension once i get the car. The bumper is not really a big deal my only real concern is .. is there a big difference in the way the car handles

Depends on the driving you do. To me the difference is night and day. Try out with and without. Since it's used you wouldn't have to spend too much on it anyway. All the best

truly, it depends on your driving. if you are the type to take it slow around corners, then, no you're fine. I've actually had people be surprised because I had to make a last minute decision and I made a clean turn. This might completely in my head, but I feel the road more in terms of bumps and potholes, but also experience less body roll. but then again in the down time between my Gs I drove an altima, so maybe the difference was exaggerated.

well i test drove an 08 g37 sport and fell in love with being able to take a turn at like 35 and have it feel as if i were going 10..... Is the 07 or 06 g35 sport anywhere near that of the g37 handling wise...
