Leasing a G37X Which options are worth going for?

Basically what the topic says. Which ones would you say are worth investing into? Which ones do you find most useful, etc.

Which package(s) do you have to get to have the rearbumper display?

Thanks

I think the biggest argument you are going to hear is for/against the NAV.

I got the 6mt so I all the packages were standard but I like the NAV. It's my 1st car with it and I think it will be something I look for again even though it ain't perfect.

i have a 6mt w/ navigation as well^. at the end of the day, the navigation isn't something i use all the time. very rarely. but i appreciate the small gadgets that come along with it. this may sound shallow (for lack of a better term), but thinking about the low-resolution non-navi screen that would've come with my sedan, everyday...would've been a no-no.

ps all the loaners G37X's are bases without navigation. another shallow point; i don't appreciate driving an expensive car that's out being used for loaner beats. does that make sense? barely computes in my mind...lol

just get it fully loaded ...despite it being a lease! g37xS

I guess fully loaded seems like the way to go Thanks guys
I feel like there are a lot of features that are not shown on the manufacturers website (infinityusa.com)
I watched this vid: ‪Infiniti G37 Review‬‏ - YouTube
Features like lane guidance, rear bumper camera etc. I did not see any of that on the website.

It's infinitiusa.com and you didn't see the around view monitor or lane departure warning on the website becuase it doesn't have it. I have no idea where the reviewer got that information from. Other Infiniti models have those options but not the G.

Sorry spelling police

What about backup cam? Does the technology package include that? I did not see that feature listed either.

The back up camera (rearview monitor) is standard on the G37.

At a minimum, get Premium and NAV. 18" wheels/tires are an option on the sedan, included with either the MT, Sports Appearance Package, or the Wheel/Tire Package (which also requires interier accents package), but the 18" are a must in my opinion.

I myself found the navi package to be a waste of money. I dont see how they can justify that price these days with everyone knowing the true costs of navigation systems. i only got the premium package in mine. its just like getting the sport package on the g37x's.... you pay a ridiculous premium for a different front bumper and wheels but dont get the upgraded brakes(the only thing I saw that would have been worth it if the AWD models got them). You can do a front end swap for the sport for less than 600.

If your not going awd then go for prm/nav/sport Your leasing to get a lower price, why not make it count? Like one of the posters said, the nav is not used always, but I do love streaming Pandora.

I'd go Prem/Spt. The nav system is not worth the price. Period. Just totally overblown.

Journey/Premium pkg here, don't have the nav, I do have a TomTom,, which is $200, and
works just as good. Sport package? I will say this.... Most people I see with the sport
package are replacing their suspensions to lower the car, and buying aftermarket rims.

If you plan on Modding the car, I say don't go sport... Nav is pricey IMHO, not worth
the money. Ultimately, it's your money, and I think you should get what you want.

Opinions (including mine) are like @ss holes, everyone has 'em, and most of 'em stink.

Good luck in your decision.
