I love my G37X, it's a life saver
 
So I had to slam on my brakes for the first time in this car, and I'm quite impressed. I was cruising with about 25 other cars down the left lane (which was clear for the next mile) when a semi trailer decided to cut in from the middle lane (no signal either). I slammed my brakes and I felt the seat belts tighten, seat seemed to move back a little and it felt like I went from 80 - 40 in half a second. It's a blur, but car slowed down in time (faster than I thought it would), and luckily, the truck swerved back into the middle lane while I was braking (it would've been pretty close if he stayed in the left lane).

Also, earlier this month it was pouring rain and I had my trunk full of luggage and while I saw a few cars slip on sharp turns, my car handled it like a champ.

Stock brakes, stock wheels/tires, and 1 very happy owner.

Just wait until you have to quickly swerve around something to avoid it. Then you really feel like the car just saved ur azz
Oh and in the snow...when you start to drift sideways and then hit the gas a little the car will straighten out and pull you straight as the power shifts to the front wheels.

Funny thing is, I had my GoPro on, but file didn't save due to SoS error, that would've been an interesting clip.

I got to test the Hotchkis sways that day on the twisties by the mountain/valley, and with DS mode the power is right there for the exit. I love this car, it also kept up with the S4's and 335's and all I have are HFC and SRI.
