I don't think your G will qualify (by US standards) as either Journey or Sport. You have the wheels, brakes (single caliper vs. double in regular journey) and paddle shifters from a sport - but you have the standard seats, wood trim, black pedals, and front bumper from a Journey. There might be some differences in packaging between the US and where you are - so you can't categorize it either (US) Sport or Journey. I would say its 50/50 both....ha

But since you have the front parking sensors, I have a feeling they might only come on the Journey bumper so that's why you have that.

And AMEN, I want the side marker lights - I feel like nobody can see my turn signal from the sides because the rear blinker is inside the LEDs and the front blinker is on the inside of the headlight cluster!

Ohh ok so the hash marks change color the closer I get to things, thats why some are yellow and others are red, cool.

Nice to hear the car is decently equipped. To be honest I never knew what an Infinity G35 was a month ago lol, but I'm very happy with the choice I made. If anyone's interested this was my other car back in the UK: http://00626e1.netsolhost.com/formoshun/s3/index_s3.htm remapped it to 255hp and 280ft-lb and then had to leave her:confused: . Don't know as much about the *** and US markets (Yet)

Good eye sight to pick out the brakes. I'm guessing single caliper is better than double? my knowledge of brakes ain't too good

They don't change color, they just represent a fixed distance to the back of the car. So when you see that wall / car approach the red hash marks you might want to stop :D.

Ohh I c, I thought they changed color lol, ok I'll try and keep an eye out for that, its weird to just get used to looking in the camera, I'm used to using my mirrors always and look back to make sure there's nothing

Dude I'm confused - did you mean to say pistons, not calipers (don't all cars have a single caliper per wheel)? And if you mean pistons, thought the sport were two piston, and the journeys are single piston?

Yeah, I made my salesman look like an idiot by pointing that out :) haha

As G35Now pointed out, the caliper just holds the pistons - in general two piston would be better, but in our G35S case, they use a bigger rotor and a much more powerful single (sliding i believe) piston

In the G37s with Akebono brakes - they have massive 4 piston calipers in front

NOPEEEE - sports have more powerful single with bigger rotors - go check yours out!
