Im looking at buying a 37xs here soon, just wanting to know what the real differences are between the two other than the obvious, wheels and aero package? or is that it????

 

That's it. You are correct. The xS came with

• flappy paddles (practically useless)
• front sport seats (truly excellent)
• sport side sills (nearly indistinguishable)
• 18x7.5" sport rims (fugly duckfeet)

It's a fine looking car, but there is zero "sport" in that package.

If you're looking for something more akin to an actual Sport Sedan, you need to find a RWD G37S... which is either the Journey with the Sport Package, or the Sedan 6MT. Or, if you don't mind modding your new car, put a set of aftermarket swaybars on that xS, with some high-performance summer tires. That's really all you need, IMO.

 

I do need the awd trim as it will be my daily and snows here in the winter.....I def like the 18s as opposed to the 17s and find the front bumper on the s model more aesthetic than the base model

 

You need snow tires. You want AWD. Semantics.

And the sport front bumper... good point. Much, much better design than the non-sport.

 

I am also in the market for 2013 G37x sedan or preferrably G37xS sedan.

I can get a 23K miles 2013 G37x sedan for $22,700 CPO. (w/ Premium package)

There is also a G37xS sedan with Navigation package for $ 26,899 with 18K miles.

I already have an aftermarket wheels in my garage and I will use the stock rims for winter use. My questions is does the G37x sports sedan has backup camera? The sales guy says the Navigation package incudes that or does it automatically includes premium package when you get navigation package?

Is it worth $4,000 more for the G37xS? I noticed that for the AWD Sedan G37Xs, the brakes aren't Akebono/Brembo? like the RWD sports.

Should I just get the regular G37x sedan with premium?

 

The sedan should have backup camera. I wouldn't say the extra 4k is worth it personally, especially if you're just going to be using the stock wheels for winter (17" vs 18" will also mean cheaper tires), you'd be paying 4k for nav, paddle shifters and some seats basically.

 

Thanks for the input there Epiphany. I remember when I test drove the G37xS AWD sedan 2 months ago, it does not have a DS mode. Am I missing something? or I just move the shifter **** from D to the left? and to use manual mode while the shifter is on the left side then use the paddle.

 

xS has a DS mode

 

Not sure if xS has the BBK kit but imho I think the xS is totally worth it when you cost out converting all your stuff to the Sport look in the long run.

I bought a 2011x with CPO and 100K warranty for about 22,000. Thats with remote starter and stillen catback installed (made a sweet deal)

long story short things I have added and want now.

-Sport front Bumper and lip - $700 not including cost of painting yet..
-Akebono brakes - $1200 (also need new rotors that fit them and wheels)
-Paddle Shifters - $400

Those alone make me want the sport edition. I did however have fun modding and making my car what I want it to be. Just some things to consider. GLWPurchase!

 

The xS sedan does NOT have BBK but do love the sport package. The only bothersome issue is the adjustable thigh area is not adjustable enough unless you are an Olsen twin.

 

HAHAHA, unless you are an olsen twin lol. Bummer that the BBK doesn't come with sport.. Probably it's own package I guess. Good to know I didn't miss out TOO hard on not getting a sport. I am thinking of getting some sport front seats and dying them red.

 

Stay away from white pants.
