2009 G37x AWD with 7AT?

I got this from another forum so I can't really say if it's accurate.

"Infiniti just released the 2009 G37 Coupe Ordering Guide. It includes the following:

Models
G37x AWD Coupe
Mechanical
Intelligent All-Wheel Drive Electronically controlled 7-speed automatic transmission with Adaptive Shift Control and manual shift mode with Downshift Rev Matching
Exterior
Scratch Shield paint
Interior
Dial-type seat heater switches
Color and Trim
Add Moonlight White (QAA) Delete Ivory Pearl (QX1) Washi-finish trim replaces aluminum trim for driver and passenger interior door pull handles (does not apply for vehicles with African rosewood interior trim)
Convenience
Power door locks with automatic locking"

From what the Euro versions have and the '09 sedan, this makes sense but it's still rumor until Infiniti releases the details.

THis looks pretty accurate. I heard they are waiting till late 09 or 10 to release the G37 convertible....These updates sound accurate to me. I am surprised they are replacing the easy scratch aluminum door handles with the washi. THey were so stupid to put the easily scratching aluminum there in the 1st place...

Looks like the 09 poses the most advantage to th AT buyers because the 7AT will be more refined and maybe get better mileage than the 5AT. As a 6mt owner personally the main thing I am pissed about is not having the scratch shield resin paint.....I hear that swirls sill show in it but it's the slightly deeper scratches that "fix" themselves......At least that's what a saleman told me today at Infiniti....

No regrets! Most of the time I use the manual mode on my AT. I rather have 5 gears to shift through than 7! Plus a new transmission calls for unresolved issues for the first couple of years! So beware! As long as there is no exterior change, I am happy!

Only exterior changes are the mirrors and the self-healing paint that the new Infiniti vehicles are using. No confirmation yet though, still rumors......

Surely the 08 owners can get the doorlocks automated through a software update; this is one feature I truely want. Driving an MT, the other changes do not concern me too much. They are all improvements, such as the handles or heat switches, but no big deal.
