new owner - have some questions

Last Friday I bought a 2010 G37 convertible (with just under 30,000 miles!). I'm trying to sort through what option packages it has. I believe I have the "base" convertible with -

Premium (it has the "memorized adjustment" buttons, speakers on the headrests, heated/cooled seats, etc.)

Navigation (obvious by the somewhat outdated maps)

Performance wheels/tires (19 inch wheels, different sized tires)

Interior Accent? (it has woodgrain on the dash)

No paddle shifters, rain sensing wipers. Color I believe is called midnight garnet.

One question - both the air compressor and tube to put the sealant are missing. Should I get the spare, or the tube and compressor?

I love the rumble when I hit the starter button...

I'm no expert to help with the options. But to answer your question, I did both. Bought a spare and a few parts to hold it, and can also fit the compressor kit in the trunk "space" while the roof is open.

I have the compressor kit in my car and always wonder if it'll be enough to limp the car to a dealer/station. Replacement tire and jack kit run 400-600 bucks. Good piece of mind but the jacks are an accident waiting to happen. Some posters like the AAA option but there's an annual cost to that. So in a nut shell, it depends.

A junk yard in Miami. They sell on eBay also. I'll look for the info. Search for the spare tire thread.
