So it would make sense for them to offer it with the 09s I hope (since they seem to be producing them anyway). One can only hope. If they do make the 09s here 7AT then I don't need to think about which trans i am going to get anymore.

I'm guessing it would compare pretty well....and would guess the mileage should increase...

I have the 6mT and enjoy stirring it myself but the gearing is definitely too short...

as has been discussed around here before...2750 rpms at 70 is way higher than it needs to be...this car should cruise at around 2k at 70....it's got plenty of torque...

It is pribably an old article.....if you go to infiniti.ca, canadians have a 3 Coat Pearl Paint as a 285.00 dollar option. So may be it is SH paint!!! I live in Canada but I have G from the US, it is identical to the one that sell in Canada. So IMO it is just a marketing tool/thing to sell more cars in different markets.

the paint is old news. Just that they finally put on cars...will come standard on the new EX. If it's a resin. It can be sprayed. But maybe Nissan will hold out and see how the market goes. Start selling it for paint dealers. Oh and it only has a 3 year life span on its elasticity.
