If you want touring and automatic you should get a G37 its bad *** too 4,500 is not worth it for me.

No I don't want an automatic. And the G37 is too heavy. I already have a luxury sports sedan as my daily driver. While I like the idea of a pure all out sports car, there's a side of me that likes the added luxury of the touring too. The leather/suede almost makes the interior look as good as the GT-R's interior IMHO.

I really think it's the added weight that bugs me the most. Porsche can have leather in their cars and still make 'em light. The power seats are useless to me. I'm going to be the only driver. I live in Hawaii, so heated seats are useless as well. Bose is nice, but I don't really need it, I drive to drive. OK, bluetooth can be useful, but again I drive to drive - not yack on the phone.

I am had the same debate between Base vs Touring. All I really wanted out of the Touring pack was the leather seat. BOSE stereo upgrade is no upgrade and I plan to rip the stock audio as soon as a dash kit is available. $4000.00 for leather seats, I dont think so.
I went base and upgraded to Sports package which has much more value.
If they included the Nav package in the Touring package, it might have swayed me. I think the touring package is a way too pricy for what you get.
