'08 g35xs to '13 g37 Journey?
Hey everyone! I've lurked for a while and finally decided to join. I have a '08 G35xs sedan, no mods. I've had it for 4 years, it's the first car I bought on my own and loved every second of it! I'm considering upgrading to a '13 G37 Journey sedan.
I live in Louisville, KY so while the AWD is nice, I only need it maybe a couple of days a year. I don't use the paddle shifters all that much, and if I'm not mistaken all the other sport features are really cosmetic.
Is it that noticeable going from AWD to RWD and will it feel like a step down going from the Sport to the Journey?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Welcome to the site!
We had an 07 RWD G35 Journey and went to a 09 G37 RWD Journey, both cars were very similar vs. coming from an AWD to a RWD. The RWD Sport package is much more of an upgrade w/ the RWDs. You get the Big Akebono brakes, limited slip differential, quick ratio steering, extra bolstered seats, larger wheels, etc.
If you can find a G37 RWD w/ Sport package that's in your budget I'd look there first.
