Question:
I want to have some road feel but I don't want the ride to be too rough. I also live in L.A. where the road has a lot of cracks and pud-holes. I am kind of in favor of the sport, but I am worry that after a few years the suspension will become more stiff and the ride will be too uncomfortable.

I want to cut the springs on my car temporarily until i get a lowering kit...?
When I came in for my 1st oil change, the loaner car was a 2006 G35. I am so glad I brought the 2007, even though it costed me almost $8,000 more. Completely different car and you can't even compare the two.
After 8000 miles, last week I came in for my second service. This time Infiniti loaned me 2007 G35 Journey and I am glad I brought the Sport package. The loaner car only had 200 miles on it. I thought to myself that if I had test driven the Journey instead of the Sport, I probably wouldn't have buy the infiniti. The Sport has a heavier feel to the steering that I love. And the paddle shifter is nice. I actually use it quite a bit, lowering the shifting point when the engine is at a cold start and holding the 5th gear during highway driving.
Volvo cars are of which country?
Maybe my back has gotten used to the sportier ride. I put about 3500 miles on it per month and I had taken (without resting) two 6 hour trips. All I know is that the more I drive it, the more I love it.

I have two complaint. One complaint is gas. I wished Infiniti made a six gear (auto) to save a bit more on gas. It cost me about $40 to fill up and I'm at the pump about 5 times per week. I drive a lot. I would not have minded to pay a little more for a six gear.
I have a 91 chrysler newyork and the speedometer stays at zero?
My second complaint is the cost of replacing the tires. I already had one replace when the puncture cannot be fix. Cost is $340 plus tax. I was told there is a shortage of the size I needed. I had a second puncture but was lucky that it can be plugged. I'll probably go through 2 sets of tires per year. With the Sport, the tires are different sizes for the front and back. And with directional tires, it cannot be rotated side to side either. But the tires really sticks and it's not too noisy. It only squelled once when I took a 20 mph curve at over 65 mph. But it never lose grip. Good tires, but costly.
Other small differences I noticed between the Journey (loaner car I drove for one hour) and the Sport (my car) is:
1. The Journey had only front window auto feature, but all four windows in the Sport has that feature.
2. The Sport has heated seats. The Journey has a coin holder where the heated seats buttons are located.
How to tell '98 Corvette from 2004 corvette?
My advice? If you like a sporty ride, go with the Sport. You probably can live with the rougher ride. It don't even bother me anymore and I take a lot of longer trips and where I'm from the road sucks. And also, I did not like (really hate) the lighter Wheat interior of the loaner car. And I almost brought it with that color, but lucky they didn't have it on hand. I have the darker Stone interior. I LOVE my choice: Serengeti Sand Metallic 2007 G35s without the navigation and with the Stone interior. So many people, most strangers, commented me on the car so far. Much more than all the other cars I've driven (combined), which includes 2003 BMW 325, 2004 Volvo S40, 2005 BMW X5, 2006 Mercedes ML350.
I am 30 yrs old male and I drive pretty aggressively. I cruise about 80-90 mph on the hwy regularly. I have seen testing showing top speed to be 158, but the most I ever hit was about 146 or so. I did that 3 times so far. I love the fast acceleration from a dead stop. The strong acceleration helped me get out of trouble a few times. A lot of people seems to rave about the strong brakes, but I wished it could be better. Maybe I'm spoiled, but I've driven car that can "stop on a dime" (it was a Honda Civic SI with upgraded brakes, suspension, wheels and tires). But that's a little scary, because I was always afraid those crazy people tailgating me will hit me when I step on my brakes. (Happened once)
Where can I find a short bed for 1978 ford f 100?
Hope my experience and perspective will help you decide. Good luck...whispering softly, "go with the Sport."
Can i drive a ferrari 430 with paddle shift gears on my automatic driving licence?
I live in LA too. I probably would go with the Journey since it has a little softer suspension and I think smaller wheels (17" vs 18", I think). Both of these factors will make the ride softer. The trade off is that it may not handle as well. But in a G35, it's still going to drive great. The sport is tuned for handling, so you will feel every pothole and crack- especially on LA's roads. And, it doesnt matter since you only go about 10mph on the freeway, anyways!I want to buy a second hand VW Bora, anyone got an idea how reliable they are?
Sport!How can i repair a pin sive hole on a aluminum pipe that goes to my cooling system on my car?
Get the Journey model. It has more luxury.I would suggest taking both on a test drive and see if you can live with the Sport model. If not, then go with the Journey. Typically after sometime, the suspension will get looser and not stiffer.

The last guy said it right.ultimately it's your choice! It's going to depend on how you drive the car and where you drive it. As suggested, I would take one of each on a good drive and make the determination yourself. Best of luck with your search...and hope you get what your looking for!
