Wow it really looks nice. This could be a fast car. Does it not have the same engine and I would guess that it has to weight alot less than the feature packed G35.

i like it...they finally fixed the butt of the altima. It does look like a poor mans g35.

I hope the accord coupe will see similar style improvements for the 8th gen.

I'd get an Altima but Nissan seems to be approving loans for anyone with a pulse...there are wayyyyyyy too many Altimas in SoCal and sometimes you think the Altima was stolen because the driver behind the wheel doesn't look like they can afford the car.
Nissan might be overloaded with a bunch of defaulted loans soon.

Darn, from the subject I thought nissan was going to put out a nice smaller rear drive car. But after reading I see it is still front wheel drive.

Later

It looks decent. Not really a fan of the altimas. There are way too many altimas here in L.A.

That looks pretty nice..and I would consider one if I was looking for a new car. However, the tail lights look a little strange and would take some getting used to.

I like the back but not the front for some reason. The grill makes it look cheap.

no it's because a) torque steer sucks.
b) traction is sweet
c) if i am going to spend 25k on a g35 clone, i will buy a base 350 with more power and rwd. fwd is something i will not buy again

Overall it looks nice, not feelin the front though (too Altima-ish) but the rear is fine with me. The 3.5 VQ engine would kick *** but then again it's a FWD. I'd love to see the SE-R version of this thing, photoshop anyone?? IMO, I would still go with the G35 coupes, even used ones over a brand new Altima coupe. They still turn me on when I see them on the road.
