Are features and parts identical b/w G35C auto/leather & 6spd model aside from trans?
Just curious if there are any differences... does the auto still come with the Brembos and does it have the same suspension, etc?
I ask because a lot of car makers like to jack the auto customers and reward the manual trans customers with some extra or better features such as sportier suspension, bigger brakes, or better leather, etc.

Nope.
The auto doesn't come with Brembos.
You'd have to get the following to get the 18"s...
Performance Tire and Wheel Package - $900
• 18-inch 7-spoke aluminum-alloy wheels
• 225/45R18 (front)and 245/45R18 (rear) W-rated performance tires
• Limited-slip rear differential
• Additional titanium-tinted interior trim
Leather is the same. Other packages are the same.

OEM Brembos are insanely expensive.
$462 was the cheapest I could find for a ONE rotor cost.
Calipers were about $800 a piece!
No, I'm not joking!!!
However, head over to stillen.com or other brake websites... You can find some sweet slotted, drilled or both rotors for about $350 a pair. MUCH cheaper.

yah maybe, but for that price i think u can buy 2 SETs of aftermarket brembos...just for 4 OEM brembo calipers would cost u around 3G.

Hmm, that would be hot. Man the car is just too much money though for me right now to reasonably afford, plus I'm sure they don't sell at invoice, plus it's RWD, plus the interior is kinda hit-or-miss. =\
Still an awesome car though.

i agree the G35C interior is not world class interior... but i came from CLS/navi interior and i could live with it. the orange light is defintely better than CLS greenish shit and the steer wheel has more than just volumn control... yes it is RWD and that is the main factor i bought G35C. for those of u who say G35C is not as refined as CLS.... it might appear that way. But if you take off the door panels and etc to install stuff, you WILL notice the difference between MADE IN JAPAN and MADE IN USA.. the fit and finish is just much better than CLS..
bottom line is... you will not regret getting a G35C especially the 6speed.
