G37xS - Question about Brakes

Does the 2013 G37xs come with the akabono big brakes. I'm currently looking at a 37xs sedan has everything but the big brakes. Also does it have the stiffer suspension?

The XS sedan is mostly an appearance package. If you want the real sport bits either get the XS coupe or the S sedan (not XS).

I'm wondering if it's worth it to spend the extra money around 2500-3000 for the xs over the x then.

Not on the Sedan. The Sport Package on the Sedan was appearance only (seats, wheels, side sills, headlights, flappy paddles).

Depending on the dealer you might be able to get the price pretty comparable between XS and a Journey X. Either way you can add the sport bumper (if you go regular X) or the Akebonos (I did this, just had to trim dust shields)

For me the price difference was worth it to get the sport front and seats- even though I ended up changing both lol.

What are the headlight differences?

The chrome surround inside the Sport Package headlight lenses are slightly darker than the non-sport. You can only tell the difference when two G's are side by side. Really lame feature, IMO. Should have been more pronounced.
