Some Q's I have for owners

First off thanks for the feedback as I am out of the country and unable to go to my dealership to find these things out for myself. I've searched, but with this 56k connection here in Argentina I quickly gave my search up.
I'd like to know the following since I shall be purchasing a g37 when I return home:
-can the doors be opened from the after you lock them? For example without unlocking them you go and reach for the door handle and pull. My jeep cherokee does it, my wrangler does it, but my DD acura rsx type-s doesn't. And my wife and I always darn near break that interior door handle off every single time. lol

-Does the remote trunk also power it all the way up? or just slightly like the honda accords? Also does it have a power close feature as found on the new tahoes and yukons?

-I know that the driver side is auto up/down feature but does the passenger side do it as well?

-How many saved presets(aka memory) can the driver seat have? I've found out that the steering wheel doesn't retract out of the way which stinks.

-I'm assuming that the sunroof retracts back into the actual car and not outside like on my type-s?

-anyone have pics of that "mood lighting" interior option? I'll probably get flamed for that one, but a link will sufice as I am stuck in 56k 3rd world over here.
Thanks again

Can't you have presets per key fob? So would this mean 4 presets total?

For th eauto, this could be because Infiniti changed this option mid production without telling everyone. It was only after I complained that my featrues were not working that I was informed that they did this.

^^This is only for the sedan. The owner's manual has material for both the coupe and sedan.

What a rip off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I read the other thread and Infiniti claims they removed these for simplicity. Let's face it manufactures don't do anything to make your life simpler otherwise we would all be riding bicycles!!!. They are just there to sell you cars (by any means) and make money. If there is no hardware removed as a result to "simplify" our lives then it may be possible to somehow get these features working by modifying the software.

Does the tilting of the side mirrors part of this simplification?

You can have presets tied to the fob, but they correspond to the ones in the car, so only two presets total.

My car doesn't tilt the side mirrors either so I guess so. I could see Infiniti getting sued over this.

So the side mirrors do not tilt when reversing nor does the steering wheel retract... Well that stinks.
Does the radio continue to play even after you turn car off? For example my radio in my escalade keeps going until I open the door.

Nope. I use one of the presets for tilting the mirror down.
