Is there anyway to add a package with the MusicBox
okay so this has been making me wonder since I got my 2013 G37S 6MT in May of this year, seems like unfortunately my car didn't come with Premium or Technology package (whichever one it is that includes the MusicBox option with the 9.3GB hard drive) and my question is , if there is any way to add that package to my car , is that even possible ? I mean I was really disappointed when I found out , that my car didn't come with that, then I just found out that it does come with a certain package.... anybody can chime in on this?
Thanks a lot, Mike

I used to have 09 and now have a 13. I don't miss music box or SD card option at all. I almost never used it when I had it, I just had a ton of content on my 160 GB iPod or XM.
SD card support was done very poorly - it supported up to 4GB media only, so good riddance.
I am glad that Infiniti is giving us ability to plug USB devices for playback and went away from proprietary Apple connector.

My 2012 does not have a music box. It was dropped midyear in 2012. I don't miss it or need it

The music box sucks anyway, only way to get files into it was by burning them from a disc in the car. Can't transfer digital files through the USB. IMO not missing out on anything at all. I've got about 5 cd's saved to mine only because I occasionally buy the hard copy of an album because the quality is higher. I still wind up just using my iphone to stream through bluetooth instead.

Seems you have your answers, Mike. The 6MT is (was) a separate model G37, and has (had) the Premium Package features by default. However, Infiniti deleted the Music Box.
I loaded about 120 music CD's into my Music Box after buying the car. And it took bloody forever, too. Overall, it's a nice feature, but kind of buggy. I have about a dozen albums that overlap somehow, and keep skipping through one another whenever I play any one of them.
But as people have said here, it's not relevant anymore with today's external devices and USB or bluetooth connectivity. And the only way to "load" music is through a Music CD, which itself is becoming archaic.
All things considered, I don't think you're missing anything terribly valuable.

yeah I got my answers... yeah just like you said it doesn't really matter anymore hence the external devices and USB or bluetooth connectivity, and yes you are right loading music through a music CD is indeed becoming a bit archaic and not too useful anymore since it only takes 1 CD at a time unlike some cars can keep up to 6 of those CDs in there and therefore I don't wanna have a bunch of CDs lying aloud in the car haha that was the only reason why MusicBox seemed like a cool feature to me

Technology Package - G37 - Includes... Advanced Climate Control System (ACCS), Intelligent Cruise Control with Preview Braking, Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers, and Front-Seat Pre-Crash Seat Belts.

Pretty sure this is wrong. ACCS and the Rain-Sensing Wipers are included without the Technology Package (at least in Canada).
