Does the 07 G35x handle the same as 09 G37x?

Greetings:

I have intention to purchase 09 G37x. The dealer has scheduled an extended test drive of an 07 G35x this coming Saturday. The sale person told me that it is exactly the same car as 09 G37x with exception that the G37x has a more powerful engine, with a 7 speed automatic, different body and interior style. The road handling should be the same. Is this true?

It is good to test drive a pre-own because you can hear how quiet the car is and if there is any rattling noise.

Thanks for your time and help.

You're kidding right? It can't be the same car if everything's different, can it?

On a more positive note, welcome to the forum and good luck with your search. If I had the cash I'd definitely look at buying an 09. Can't wait to test drive one.

im guessing the 09 will handle just sightly better but not real noticable, due to 09 suspension being a little stiffer cause of the extra weight.

Thank you all for your time and comments.

That's what I've been told.

I have an appointment with a sale rep on 05/23 to discuss about pricing, trade-in value etc. I will definitely get the 09 G37x if 4 conditions are met: base G37x, $32K max (preferably $31k range), trade-in value for my 05 LGT $10~10.5k (preferably $11k), handling better or as well as and fast passing power as my LGT.

Thanks for pointing this out.

I hope that Infinity will have a G97x model in the future. This way you won't laugh at me.
