Do you guys happen to know a few minor details regarding the G37? When I was at the dealership, I failed to see what the 07 G35S Sedan had with regards to:
1. Alarm chirp or honk the horn
2. Nav can be adjusted while in motion
3. Confirm that the upgraded stereo plays MP3 format burned to a CD-R
4. Shark fin antenna on the roof?
5. Fog or driving lights on the sport model?
6. Confirm that the instrument display is blue (violet)?

Details, details...oh, how I like details... Thanks...

 

Not an 07 owner but...

2. No. kptechnologies makes a module that lets you do that for a 03-06 G though :-)
4. Sirius/XM

 

On the 07 Sedan.......

1. If you press the lock button on the intelligent key, the car horn will honk the horn. If you press the button on the door handle to lock the doors, it will give two fairly quiet beeps.

2. There are a few things that are blocked on the Nav while driving, however most Nav functions are accessible via voice commands.

3. If have the SOW, the in-dash CD player will not play MP3 CDs, however the trunk mounted 6 CD Changer will play MP3 CDs.

4. Yes, the shark fin satellite radio antenna is on the roof.

5. Yes, the Sport model has fog lights integrated into the headlight assembly.

6. Yes, the instrument panel is blue, white and violet.


I hope this helps.

 

5. '07 G35 Coupe Sports/Premium I drove had Fogs incorporated within the headlight housing. The G37 will no doubt follow tradition here.
6. Yes. Saw a pic of this posted somewhere; if it turns up I'll stick it in here.

 

Thanks guys. To bad Infiniti honks and doesn't beep. The beep is refined / classy. Oh well.

Fogs in the headlights, that is rather odd.

 

it does the Lexus beep, but only if you use the soft buttons on the doors, not the fob.

 

Doesn't give an even different sound (beep) when you open the trunk? When I had a loaner I thought I experienced it, but, I wasn't sure if it was the G or another car near me.

 

DropTopGal, you will have three choices....

1. Use the intelligent key to lock your car and your horn will honk once.
2. Use the button on the door handle to lock your car and it will quietly beep twice.
3. You can turn off the horn so that if you want to use the Intelligent key to lock your car, the horn will not honk, only your hazard lights will flash.

 

Yep, you're exactly right Alex. It does give a different beep when the trunk is opened.

 

there should be no "technical" limitation to configuring these chirps/beeps/honks. i would expect any new car in this class to give the driver complete control over things like that. I agree.. dont' think the "honk" is refined.. and i'll almost always use the fob to lock/unlock.

That's probably a good idea to have a lot of different options.

Just me but any chirp/honk/beep noise made when locking isn't "refined" to me. I prefer to simply hear the lock mechanism and/or watch the hazzards flash.

 

zactly.. sounds like you can turn it all off to just what you're asking for. a while back i checked out the 07 sedans nav man. and it allowed all kinds of setting changes.... i expect the new g to get all of those as well.

Too bad about the navigation- My LR3 does that- I can use most functions while driving. therefor I don't use the damn thing. My ADHD won't let me sit in the car without moving. My acura is fully functional while moving and I'll enter stuff at stop lights, etc. It also has voice activation which I never use- it gets it wrong too often.

 

OK, that's it... the darn thing can't even "beep" with the fob! Screw the G37, I'm not getting one!




Just kidding...

 

That's a huge pet peeve of mine, I HATE car alarms that use the horn (to activate)! I like the high tech "beep" sound - hell even my mom's new camry has that!
