HP Loss?

This may sound weird but I think my G has lost some horses, it seems to choke when I gun it after around the 65 mph mark, and as in choke I mean its much slower as before and kind of feels slower than the homies 4 door

And it was at the dealer for air bags and headlights so they did do a all around check, $%*!'s annoying.

Time to take it back and get it serviced.

Lol, maybe heavier muscle wise

At first I thought I was just getting to the power that the G has, but it was the reprograming issue. Because when I dropped it off for the service, the 4 door G35 loaner seemed to have more power than my G37. So when I got my car back, the G ran like when I first got it. So try to bring it for that service bulletin.
