Wouldn't this cheapen our cars since this is pretty much identical to the G35 from the front bumper back. The only thing that says altima is the front bumper, the rest is all G35.

When/If this comes out time to sell the G and upgrade. This would kill any value it has.

It looks like a G. Nice way to undervalue my current car...Nissan should scrap this and make another Silvia. Bring back the S Chassis!

Resale value? Worse thing to do is to buy a car as an investment. Remember why you bought your car and remind yourself that if this ALTIMA does go into production, it will still be FRONT WHEEL DRIVE!!!!

If this Altima Coupe does in fact make it into production, I don't think it will impact the resale value of the current G35c at all. IMO, if anything that will impact the resale value of the current Coupe it will be the release of the 08 Coupe.

I think this would be more comparable to the accord coupe than the g35

Oh Wow, FWD G35 Coupe with a lower price tag! If you don't need any rear wheel driver performance (which is appx. 85% of the population) then the Altima coupe is the way to go. It looks great, but I think the front bumper needs some work - I say just dump the G35C front bumper on it and call it a day.

agreed that it will be comparable to the accord and plus if this altima makes it to the market for sale i the us it'll be a front wheel drive car of course! looks pretty good though!

Imagine the Altima Coupe with a convertible top woohoo~~

Maybe finally there will be a good looking 4 seater coupe on the market at reasonable price and gobs of power. (I'd buy one........ if they built a RWD or AWD version.)

That's the kicker, if it FWD, I don't think it will make a dent in the G's value or sales.
