Default feedback...from a G35x

In about 3 months my lease will be up on my 2008 G35xS Sedan and I'm looking to purchase a car instead of continue to lease. I have been shopping around for an IS350 certified preowned 07-08 around the my area (NJ) but very little inventory availiable.

Anyway, my question is anyone here came from the Infiniti G35x and now drives a IS350. Any regrets? I know I'll missed the all-wheel drive on the G35X for the nj winter weather but the all-wheel drive also makes the car a little sluggish. I test drove the IS350 few years back, I love how the cabin feel (fits like a glove) but the rear seat is a little tight. I also love the fit and finish of a lexus that I know will last me for awhile. Also, the IS350 is a rear-wheel drive so winter will be a pain if snow falls but a set of all-season tires will do the trick. At last, I will hear my friends saying (is a glorified toyota corrolla) but hey, I like it. I hear this on my G35 too (is a glorified nissan).

I get around fine in MD with our light(er) snow with all-seasons, but dedicated snow tires should do the trick for you, if thats an issue. Just make sure you're not on summers.
