I don't know if I've just missed it but did the reclining rear seats go away for the 2007 sedan? It was a unique option for the G when it came out in '02.

Yeup I noticed that too. I went and checked all the options and I dont see it mentioned there. Thats one thing I miss about my 04 Sedan.

Weird...I seem to recall the floor model in Miami having rear seat recline...

I could be wrong, though. 07 owners, confirm?

Nope checked the floor model @ south motors infiniti after the unveiling, thinking about the rear seat recline, and nada. Doesnt exist.

I'm surprised. With all of the new gadgetry in the '07 I would have thought that feature would have stuck around. Do the rear seats fold down in an '07?

I was told by my salesman that reclining rear seats were sacrificed in order to keep the weight as low as possible. The second gen G is heavier than the first gen, but they wanted to stay as close as possible.

Nope, unfortunately

They weren't all that usefull anyway.

Aww...but the novelty! Think of the novelty!

No, but it was a pretty cool and exclusive feature.

I really couldn't care less for the reclining seats (albeit it WAS a nice feature). I am more disappointed with the fact that they don't fold down like in almost any sedan these days...

yeah no more reclining but they did make it very supportive

No, recline/fold over was a SAFETY issue. To get a 5* frontal crash rating, you can't have stuff in the trunk, smashing through to the passenger cabin.

The couldnt build strong enough latches? My Civic has folding seats and 5-star frontal crash rating...

Maybe more weight to the whole structure, to reinforce, when it has folding/reclining back seats?
