Buz vs First
Collecting opinions, do you think the difference between CX First and CX Buz worth the extra 40K for the USA-Australia award? (100k vs 140k)

Without a doubt! I'd spend 40k miles for an upgrade on CX much faster than I would on AA.

Especially on such long flights!!

You'll be on a plane for ~20 hours, and 40k miles for a fully-flat bed is well worth it.

Absolutely! Once you've tried Cx First, you would never want to go back to J (well, maybe the new one's OK...)

Be Pampered.........

Make it unanimous.

I might add that having very recently flown both F and new J on CX-- the new J product looks a little more comfortable than it actually is IMHO.
