Message "The big question with the performance package do I get the brembo kit with the performance upgrade (on the 6 speed you do) but on auto they don't have a clue. Also is there any changes in the spring rates or shocks on the performance package. "

First off... you can only get the Brembos on the 6spd, they can't be added to the 5spd auto, before or after you buy it... I've heard the braking system is different (what I've been told). To me I would "think" they would bolt on... but I've been told otherwise by the Master Tech at my dealership...

Performance Package (Wheel and Tire as its actually called, or Sport Package internally) is simply a wheel and tire package. If you get it on the Auto, you only get the 18 inch rims and tires, the limited slip on the rear, and the titanium tinted center console, no more no less... If you buy the 6spd (which is only $600 more expensive, which is the price of the Wheel/Tire package) you get the wheels, tires, limited slip, the 6spd transmission, the ebrake handle, drilled pedals, the tinted console, AND the Brembo brakes. Great deal for $600 more. If you want a good car, get the 6spd. You're looking at the following numbers:

6spd G35 Coupe: $32,050.00
Aero Package: $550.00 (or there abouts)
Premium: $2,250.00
Navigation: $2000.00 (trinket, but if you want it more power to you)
Performance: Included (you can get it on the auto for $600, but you don't get the brakes!)
Destination: $545.00

Grand total: $37,395.00 plus taxes/fees, etc. Basically, if you knock the nav, you're paying $35,395.00 for a Track Model 350Z WITH a Sunroof, Backseat, Leather, NICER interior, seats, etc, and a FAR better looking car WITH a 4yr/60k warranty, 24hr road side for 4 years, and the loaner car at Infiniti Dealerships (for customers who bought their car from us, we give a free loaner even for oil changes if customer calls in advance and we have a car available!). That's a LOT of extra stuff for only $1000 over the price of a 350Z Track Model. Granted you don't get the Rays 18s, but hey, the Gs 18s are damn nice looking! I sat in a 350Z tonight at the local Auto Show. Its still a nice car, but the G35c blows it out of the water by comparison. Yeah its slower 0-60 and 1/4 (by a little) but it will whoop a 350Z on the race track!!!
