G37x Coupe Confirmed

Nissan confirms G37 Sedan, G37 Convertible and G37x Coupe

Nissan has finally confirmed in writing what many of us had known all along... the 2009 model year will bring the new G37 Sedan, G37 Convertible, and the G37x Coupe to Infiniti showrooms. The G35 sedan gets a bump from 3.5-liters (306 hp) to 3.7-liters (328 hp) as it now shares its engine with the coupe. Rebadged the G37, an optional brake package adds 4-piston front/2-piston rear brakes and larger rotors to the sedan. A new 18-inch wheel design and standard Scratch Shield paint (self-healing) round out the upgrades. The all-new G37 convertible marks Infiniti's first drop-top since the 1992 M30 was discontinued, and the first open-air G. Based on the G37 Coupe, it features a three-piece automatic retracting hardtop. Finally, the new G37x is a G37 coupe fitted with Nissan's ATESSA E-TSÔ all-wheel drive system. While the G37 Sedan and G37x will go on sale in September and debut in less than two weeks at the 2008 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, we'll have to wait until the LA Auto Show in November for the debut of the G37 Convertible. Of course, Autoblog will be at both events to cover it for you.

Probably only the X models come with auto. I'm sure they'll offer a 6 speed manual on other models.

Nissan no longer does AWD manuals for whatever reason.
The new G's will be offered with a 7spd Auto tranny. 6spd offered only for RWD most likely.

Because Nissan is getting gayer by the day. Thank God BMW and the rest of the Euro-croo still believe in making drivers' cars....Nissan is more interested in tech stuff than driving experience...

If you think the AWD will be a pig wait till the convertible hard top comes out, which should be around the same time...
