"The 24-bit Burr-Brown Digital-to-Analog Converter is deleted."
This is incredibly worrisome to me. This component was the key to making the audio system "audiophile" as Infiniti tries to claim. How can we find out what is replacing it instead? Of course it is of little value to non-audiophiles and their compressed crap-sounding MP3's, etc., but for properly recorded CD's, it makes a big difference. Bose systems are typically mediocre, but as I said, this component helped the one in the G immensely.
I am sure it will be on off-the-shelf Bose DAC that replaces it...but how do we find out?

The other thing that worries me (besides leaving the same fugly 18" sport wheels on the car) is whether the larger brakes can be ordered on an AWD car. I am in Canada and I am not sure if the G37XS model here is different from whatever is in the US (we don't have "Journey" for example), but I don't think even if you order the sport package do you get the better brakes? In other words, sport and AWD = cosmetic only. This sucks big time as I would absolutely want the bigger/better brakes and absolutely need and want AWD. Any intelligence on this from '09 or '10?

it's about saving weight here and there to compensate for the AWD unit.
the brakes work fine... the 14" akebonos just work better. Look at it this way, you pay $2000 for the G37 Akebono BBK's and install them into your sport package on the G37xS, it's just a few dollars more.

Hi - I'm a new member who has been in contact with my local dealer about a new 2010 G37 sedan. For what it's worth, he sent me this today from his internal I dealer site. I've been talking with him about "pre-ordering" a G37, so i thought i would pass this along - sorry for any repeats.

No, you'll have to buy them and have them installed. Your bestbet is probably ordering them from Riverside Infiniti. I called around to a few Canadaian dealers and none of them could touch their pricing. I was thinking of doing this for a while, but I realized that it would be basically a cosmetic upgrade. The stock brakes work fine and if you're seriously thinking about tracking the car you can get "professional" brakes for less.
