Very disappointed so far... I wish I could find out for certain before my 07 comes.

If you go over to nissannews.com and find your way to the G37 then select specifications, it will detail out the packages. I suspect, but do not know, the 08 sedan will follow the g37 lead. I do see that the sport package option on the Journey is exactly the same equipment as the g37S. That is good news for me as it would allow the sport package to be purchased with the wood interior option. I plan on ordering a 08 just as soon as I can see the actual specifications for the car.

Anybody heard anything whether the 08 AWD Sport will have paddle shifters? And will it have the LSD as well?

2008 G35 Sedan
2008 G35 Sedan are here. They arrived today at most dealers.
The new 2008 G35 Sport is available with 6 speed manual only. On the Journey model 5AT you can add sport package for $1650 msrp(invoice $1422). This package DOES include larger brakes which was on the 2007 Sport model. According to 2007 brochure and infiniti site all G35 seem to have same suspension(However I could be wrong). I think the 'stiffer' sport suspension is for the coupe. So pretty much the 2008 Journey 5AT with sport package will have everything 2007 sport model have.

The Journey sports package requires premimum package. MSRP for 2008 premimum is $2500(invoice $2040), a $150 increase from 2007 msrp.
