Thanks.

Yeah, I got mine on the 14th of December, so almost as new as yours.

How much is the extra weight? I think AWD on my G37x adds about 200 pounds compared to a G37s if I recall right, so I have the "weight issue" on mine I suppose if it's about the same.

My baby is 8 days older than your baby!! Be interesting to post back a year from now and compare notes on how things have worked out. I had my first problem on my first full day (window leaking) but was fixed quickly.
