Hi guys im a long time reader but a first time poster. Heres my story. During thanksgiving holidays i got a new black G37 journey with navigation, sports tires, technology package, illuminated kickplates. Everything. Then i got into a wreck trying to avoid a deer and i hit a telephone pole. Sounds stupid but it could happen to anyone. Now the insurance company declared my car totaled so i have to pick out a new one. This car had everything i wanted but would anyone recommend me to get a G37s instead?? I know the differences are slight but i want someone thats driven both to give me their opinion.

 

I was told that the sports suspension is 5% stiffer than the non sports suspension. I have not test driven the non-"S", but I have the "S" and I love it. Both suspensions are set up to be great and sporty. The sports package has the following:
- Viscous Limited-Slip Differential (VLSD)
- 10-spoke 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheels with W-rated summer performance tires
- Sport-tuned suspension
- 4-piston front and 2-piston rear calipers, with 14.0-inch front and 13.8-inch rear brake discs
- Unique front fascia and side sills
- Front sport seats with thigh extension and driver’s power torso and thigh support
- Solid magnesium paddle shifters mounted on steering column
- Unique sport steering wheel stitching
- Aluminum pedals

You already have the tire package (in bold), so if the other features seem appealing to you, get the G37s.

 

Thanks for the quick response man i really appreciate it. Ohh yea i forgot to say this but IF ANYONE NEEDS PARTS OUT OF MY OLD G37 JOURNEY LET ME KNOW IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS The car only had 1500 miles when i totaled it so everything inside is still very new. The navigation system works perfect speakers are good. Illuminated kickplates etc.

 

suggest you take it all out and auction it

 

they're letting you part out the car? cool. Post a list of parts FS.

 

Take everything you can and yes, post it. I'm sure a lot of people will be interested.

Then get the 6MT if you enjoy driving a stick shift.

any pics..

good think ur ok

 

Be sure to check if you can actually part it out. When my Jeep was totaled they just let me get my personal effect out and nothing more. They (insurance company) were counting on parting it out.

 

I also would definitely recommend the sports package. The suspension feels "just right" and not at all harsh. I just got back from a 2000 mile road trip and my G didn't beat me up.

Tech pack is hit or miss. I have mixed feelings on the adaptive cruise (works very well in the right situations), but it's hard to complain about the added safety features.
