Default Clutch difference?

After driving my 2010 GS coupe for several months I hadn't driven my wife's 07 since. I had to add air to the tires and top off her fuel before winter and I noticed that her clutch seemed much lighter than mine. In fact I had to get used to the difference before I could get on it a little. Is there a different clutch in the GS? Hers only has 2,000 mi. more on it than mine so wear shouldn't be a factor.

There might be.......or not. They switched to the LS7 clutch in all cars in (I think) sometime in 2007. Maybe post when your '07 was built, might help someone who knows for sure.

I also noticed that her steering seemed stiffer than mine. I liked the feel of the GS better though.
