2000 Camaro SS 6MT to the 2005 G35x sedan automatic.
Downgrade in power. Upgrade in luxury.
old cars:
1994 Camaro Z28 6MT.
1970 Mach 1. Fun to go fast, scarry to stop fast!
1987 Acura Integra 5 door 5 speed. Totally cool little hot rod. (pre VTEC)
1985 Toyota 4WD SR5 5 speed. Totally jouncy ride. Solid front axle.
But all the rage back in the day!
and a couple of cars that I am embarrased to admit that I owned

As you can imagine it's quite an upgrade. It also feels like I'm sitting on the ground.

2002 Chevy duramax Crew Cab short bed, Fabtech 8 inch, 37inch toyos, efi Live, turbo back, intake, gauges, too much to list. Downgraded in power and torque but upgraded in speed, mpg, handling, comfort, and about everything else!

2005 Maxima SL sedan. Didn't have navi or premium sound but most everything else - including a heated steering wheel, which I sorely miss. 
I can't figure why a more upscale model, from the same mfgr, doesn't have it.
