People that upgrade from G35 to G37 opinions

I have a 2006 G35 coupe 6MT and am now looking to upgrade to the G37 coupe 6MT for the people out there that have made this switch can you give me some input on the pros and cons?

I don't own both, but I helped one of my co-workers obtain his 07 Sedan, many of the similarities will be there:

PROS:
More aggressive look
More power
More time left on warranty
Navigation actually has Hawaii in it
Backup camera option
Proximity keyless entry
Auxuillary video and audio inputs in the center armrest
More optional options

CONS:
More aggressive look
Aftermarket headunit options are virtually zero.
Interior door pulls feel a lot more solid on the G35s
Heavier

SAMES:
Same fragile paint
Same great handling

I've had a few '09 G37x loaners.... I love them. The power is incredible and it's just overall improved.

if you have the money available go for it.

The warranty thing i wouldn't worry about. A car rarely breaks down if you maintain it.

Not all REVUP motors have the OC issue, if you're past the warranty miles chances are good you won't have any problems. Drive and Enjoy....

Anyone driven to Hawaii lately?

I'd have to say I disagree with the more agressive look, I get a kind of feminine feel looking at it... IMHO

Thats what I thought when I first saw the G37 coupe but with the right aesthetic mods I could change that.

Only thing that stopped me from buying a G37 instead of my G35 were the exterior looks. If you're cool with how it looks, then get the G37.

G37: better face. G35: nicer rear.
