As previously mentioned, the chrome finisher on the top truck is missing. If the first photo is the actual spoiler, I'm not getting that option.
Actually I really like that......looks very clean IMO.

Just try to spot the differences, because there are only a few of them. As you've surely heard, Infiniti has changed up a few details of the G line of vehicles. First, the sedan ditches the old 3.5-liter for the coupe's 3.7-liter with variable valve event and lift, and both bodystyles get a new 7-speed automatic. They also both get new rotary dials that replace the current car's seat heater buttons, plus a few other subtle interior upgrades. The '09 sedan is distinguished outside by new wheels from the European model and, of course, new badges with sevens in them.

For the '09 coupe, the biggest change is the addition of all-wheel drive, denoted by a G37x badge. It's only available with an automatic. See pictures of both by clicking the headline above.

Man, they're killing me with this spoiler business. I absolutely hate the 07-08 spoiler hovering over the chrome mini-spoiler/lip. The single integrated spoiler on the garnet car is damn nice though. It reminds me much more of the spoiler they put on the coupes, which I love. I would like to have that spoiler and get rid of the chrome thingy all together.

Bottom line, I already submitted an order w/o a spoiler but if we can confirm it'll be like the one of the garnet car I'd love to change my order before the car starts production.

Not sure if you all know this, but the entire interior has more of a matte finish than before. All of the dashboard and plastics has less shine to it than before, more like European cars.

Not that it'll change your opinion but just so you know, the wood is very much real. It's also not that super glossy over lacquered stuff they put in most cars.

I wish there was a way to get the wood in an M/T car, I think it makes the car a more warm and inviting place than the aluminum.

Dang, definitely seeing both the coupe and sedan on the same page really emphasizes just how bad the sedan wheels are. Certainly in the pics, they do look like some sort of plastic cover you'd get at Autozone.

If I get a G37, those wheels would definitely have to go. Not necessarily a deal breaker, but it definitely affects the economics comparing to other cars with better looking stock wheels.

Why is it that these car makers have to go and screw up a detail like that.

Yep, thats it, could be the camera angle though

Wheel look like crap but the brakes behind them look swwwweeeeet....

I want an 09...Infiniti adressed all my complaints. Only thing missing is the butt coolers from the M/FX

There's a red G37 coupe next to the dark G37x coupe with a matte black spoiler... Anyone notice that?

Not sure if I'm feeling it
