Not much. Same chassis. Even the 4 door sedan is pretty much identical to a same-year 350Z or 370Z. Suspension parts are interchangeable, drivetrain parts will swap (other than the AWD drivetrain) and for the most part the G37 just has a few more luxury features and extra insulation to quiet the cabin.
And considerably different (and better) styling in and out.
Loved my 2012 Maxima but I found it was just too much power going through the front wheels.
Might be a good enough reason for some to look at the Infiniti's or elsewhere.
I have a 2009 Infiniti G37 Sx... the "x" being AWD. it's a great car, with a lot of power, and decent handling for it's weight.
The AWD with winter tires, is unbetable!!
Last Maxima I owned and loved was a 1995, after that they went downhill.
I also had a 2008 G35X (better response than terrible Maxima of same year) which was ok, but not in same class as a BMW 3 class for handling. Traded it for a 335 and never looked back of ever buying a Nissan again.
Nissan used to be my go to brand (had: 2 Maxima, Quest, Infinity).
However since Renault has taken control of the Nissan, what was once best engineered Japanese cars, have been failing in quality and performance every year for past 20 or so years.
True especialy with the transmissions because they suck because they are CVTs and are unreliable because CVTs are always unreliable
