What is your short list of disappointments?
What is your short list of disappointments?
1) I'm still within the break in period
2) Dealer service/parts: "Your car does not exist..."
3) My replacement aftermarket wheels and intake have not arrived
4) It's gonna be winter and I won't be able to run my 20's until spring
5) Having to correct people and explain to them that this is a G37 sedan, not a G35 sedan
6) I'm getting carpal tunnel syndrome having to turn the seat heater ***** 6 cogs to get the high setting
7) Facing the true reality that there was a reason that I bought a sedan and not the coupe by having to install the car seats for my two kids and enjoy my son kicking the seat from behind
8) My 3 year old daughter saying, "I don't like this car, where is the movie screen (we have DVD in our Armada), and it's too loud (FI HFC's and exhaust
)9) The anti-wife devices (loud exhaust, dark tint, etc.) are not working
10) Heavy foot syndrome and 17 mpg
I would have taken a deal back in August if they had a G35 optioned up the way my G37 is equipped. I really like this car, and am glad to have some exclusivity for the short term (even if it is only in my head)!

I read the break in procedure for my old car back in the day and it read that to break it in, I should let the car run at every single RPM range at different periods of time.
Since then I've refused to read to any other recommendations on how to break in a car, on purpose. That car lasted 160,000 miles easy until I gave it to my brother and he flipped it and totaled it.

So to recap:
The 2009 G37 Sedans won't be in dealerships in any quantity and with any incentives until at least January...
If you want a G37 Sedan that's customized to a certain degree (like rx794) you have to wait until January to actually place the order and begin the 90-120 day wait. I'm assuming any incentives would be applicable at the time of order...
I was hoping to be able to place an order now for a highly optioned G37xS with at least a loyalty incentive and pickup the car in March, but now it looks like a realistic delivery date would be by May
hmmmm....

I begining to just accept that I'll wait until March and get a 09 G37 Sedan then, hopefully by then there will be some incentives as well. And I am so itching to pull the trigger and the discounted 08's are appealing, but I'm likely to hold out and hope for some Navi improvments over the 08.

Well I think calling that recap WAY off is a bit strong, as my time machine isn't working right now and I can't go back to July to place an order since it's November last I checked. And according to posts #22 & #23 if you want a G37 other than the few that have trickled out you need to order one, but in post #38 09 production has been cut back and no new orders are beeing taking at this time.

Seeing as Mike@riverside is still taking 09 orders why would you believe what Joe Shmo says?
Read before being a smarta$$
I am taking orders, but Infiniti will not accept an order from me for the time being. When I have an order, I am doing my best to snag a car from the port. Otherwise, I have to wait until my ordering system is back open.
Fortunately, most of the guys that ordered from me ordered between July and September, while I was still able to put in orders as soon as I received it

Who's being the smarta$$ in this thread - if you want to nitpick and say that dealers are still technically taking orders even though Infiniti isn't accepting them, I guess you're right.
I don't mind waiting for the exact car I want, and even though one dealer I spoke with is confident he could grab that car within a month, I'm just trying to figure out when the best time to actually order is. I could put a deposit down now with no incentives (and not get a good deal, at least locally) and possibly wait until April, or wait until the 09's are at the dealers in numbers and buy something close to what I want and put the kick plates, spoiler etc on myself. The dealers local to me aren't too helpful regarding the 09 sedan details like which spoilers are which. I point to the ones I want in the catalog but they can't tell me if it's the $520 or $550 one or part of an Aero package...
I'd love to do a cross-country adventure to SoCal and pickup the exact car I want, but I don't think they see too many AWD's on the left coast.
