What I'm looking for is a daily driver. I probably won't mod it but am curious. (I have another car for "spirited" weekend driving). I like AWD and good gas mileage. I need reliability. I did drive the 2.0t and 3.2 back to back. The 2.0t has enough power but I'm a little concerned about reliability. I loved the torque curve and handling. The seats were awesome...much better than the Sub IMO. Driving impression is very important to me.
P.S. I did drive the G35 and my reaction is ho hum. I don't doubt the G35 is a more reliable car than something from Europe but so is a Corrolla.
What are the performance numbers for 2.0 vs 3.2?
0-60, 1/4 mile, breaking any links?
Thanks guys.

Hmm if you are concerned about 1/4 mile times (well, not even concerned... but interested!) Then i'd go for the 2.0T... install an exhaust, and a chip. APR offers exhaust software I believe, and that car would be an absolute blast! The 3.2 is going to be smoother, and quieter... but I doubt that the 2.0T is harsh or that noisy.
As far as reliability is concerned... The car's going to be under warranty... so you're covered! But I haven't heard of any real issues with either engine. So yes... I'd be leaning 2.0T if I were you.

I know the S line has larger tires/wheels but what are the actual suspention components? What about the 1BE Sport suspension option?
I asked the salesman but he couldn't answer.
