Free XM Satellite Radio Trial?

When the 07 Sedan was introduced last year, everyone that bought one got a free 3 month trial of XM Satellite Radio. To the guys that are getting their G37, are you getting a free trial also? I figured it might be worth mentioning to you guys so you can check into it. Hopefully you guys will be offered the free trial as well.

from what i've read.. yes.. all g37s should come with that 3 month trial since all g's will have xm hardware built in. It definately makes sense from a marketing stand point

Infiniti's site has a "Complimentary XM Service" link on the bottom, but it redirects you to the QX page. lol

I personally would not care about the XM Satellite Radio as there is the iPod integration. It's nice of them to add in a free trial though. I might as well try it out.

Just a little FYI, in case some don't know about it - if you're interested in getting an XM subscription, search around for the 77 dollars/year deal. There's a car forum that has a good script that if you follow, you'll get XM radio for a year at 77 dollars. If you need more info, PM me. I've done it two years in a row now.

Thanks for the information. I'm interested in how well the XM Nav Traffic works.

To further the discussion, XM is letting me transfer the time left on my TL's radio to my G37 after the 3 month trial.

When it comes time to "officially" sign up, check out the discussions on the G35 forum to save some serious bucks.

I tested out the XM NavTraffic today a little. It's pretty nice honestly. Gave me updated for highways and roads from 5 miles away to 50 miles away. There were 26+ (iirc) listings and I didn't go through them all since I was driving. Impressive.

Listings? so they list the accidents? or slow downs?
That is better than I thought, which was they just color coded the lines for how the speed was. (green-nl, yellow-slower, red -problem)
