Just purchased a CPO 2013 M37 in flawless condition with 13K miles a few months ago...... The biggest disappointment has been the cheap feel of the steering wheel and the comfort of the seats (hard) . One of my legs tends to get numb after driving the car for more than 30 minutes........ I had 2010 G37 with no such issues. Leased a 2013 Acura TL after than, and I am now back to Infiniti with the more premium car....... But so far, I just cant seem to get comfortable.... I think the wheel can be easily corrected by purchasing a leather wrap or cover. As far as the seat, not sure what I could do here. Maybe a softer cushion? Maybe with time I will get used to it... I would hate to give up on the car so soon. I really like how it drives and how it looks and pretty much everything about.... I did not pay to much attention to these details at the time of purchase. But now its becoming an issue. Anyone have similar experiences or know where these items can be purchased? Can these wheel covers be easily install? Thank you again.

I think this car is rather comfortable. Sorry to hear that you aren't able to get comfortable in it. You might want to call around your local upholstery places...but keep in mind our seats are heated and cooled with vents...

Also, welcome to the forum.

Welcome, my seats are comfortable to me, don't have any issues at all and I have a 11M37s. Just curious, have you tried to adjust the lumbar support? I really don't know what else to tell ya, hope you can get it corrected.

Yes, I have tried everything..... Trial and error I guess. But still trying. Anyone know about a leather wrap steering cover?

To get the steering wheel wrapped you're going to have to take it to a upholstey guy or get a cheap cover from pepboys/amazon. I can only see those being your options.

Any pictures of this, Vini? It would be nice to know they can do an exact match if necessary.

Carbon creations and euro boutique make those wheels as well. I think they are roughly $600
