And even darker headlights.
The sport model does come with darker headlights. Although the difference is almost negligible even when looking at them side by side.

Some more research (specific to the 19's I'm looking for)
  • The Conti has a 10/32" tread depth out of the box, whereas the PS4 only has 9/32".
  • The PS4 is 1/10" wider contact patch than the Conti.
  • The Conti has a higher tread wear rating than the PS4.
  • They both weigh 27 lbs.

I'm feeling a positive vibe about the Conti. Certainly like the idea of spending $150 less.

You forgot, Michelin says MICHELIN on the sidewall.

Good catch Coltrane^^^^

Some super sharp pics coming in today.

That black trim on Zahy's G looks perfect w/ the rest of his pieces.

Every G on today's menu looks superb!

This particular selection is just plain "balla"

Yes. I know this. That's why I said even darker headlights. The difference is so slight that it hard to tell to tell unless they are side by side.

Sport trim should have been no chorome.

IDK why Infiniti was so subtle with their Sport Package. It would have been so easy for them to do the following:
  • A no-chrome option.
  • A Sport Exhaust option.
  • Darker headlight housings.
  • More prominent side-sills extensions.
  • Sport 19's from the Coupe

Minimal configuration options... heck, they could have called it an IPL Sedan. Oh well. Today's Infiniti is not a car company I'll be looking at for next car.

Wait... this is a show-your-sedan thread. My bad. Let's see... here's an old pic:

Funny you should mention this... there are press photos that Infiniti used quite heavily for the 2013 sedan that clearly make the headlights look like they have a black/dark housing from several angles that always annoyed me cause people spend so much to get this done but its not actually offered by infiniti as far as I know .... /rant
