^ I was, turned out to be a lemon that's been in a wreck.

What a shame, I'll still wait for a nice 360 spider and then get the Novitec front bumper. I rather have stock engine andways, those F cars spontaneously combust enough as it is, no need to lower the reliability any further.

The G37 Vert is is replacing another vehicle in the garage.

I saw one @ the Autoshow here in Chicago.Nice car too. Blue silvery color. I'll upload my pics and share them here shortly if you're interested. The car's very nice.

It has smaller revised tail lamps vs the current G37 coupe

Only thing I didnt like was the antenna. The rest is nice, I love the headrests. If I had a coupe, I would swap headrests. Taillights look nice, better than the coupe imo. But the overall appearance of the coupes rear looks better imo... almost a toss up though.

That would be great tiguy99, I've been waiting to see what the new light blue looks like. I think they are calling it Pacific Sky.

True. I felt the same way when I saw it. The interior is nice. Taillamps were interesting refreshment. However it looks kinda lean vs the round behind of the G37 coupe.

I felt the same way about the new IS Lexus Convertible coming out soon too

Interesting photos. I set up the Infiniti/Benz/Volvo floor at our auto show today, which opens tomorrow, and the G37 vert had an antenna on it. I'll take some pics tom.

Thanks for the photos, the car looks great. I feel like an idiot because I saw the exact same car at LA Autoshow earlier this year. I had no idea that was the light blue color haha. (I thought it was the new silver) I didn't notice the antenna when I saw the car in person though. The Vert looks alittle funny with the top up, but as with any 4 seater convertibles, that's a trade off because otherwise rear passengers would have zero headroom.

Also someone at the autoshow told me the Vert was focused more on female drivers and that's why they beefed up the rear bumper for more cusion zone - lol I thought that was a low blow to women drivers everywhere.

Interesting observation! I wonder what the female lib movement are going to say about that now haha

Everyone on the G37 forums are waiting for it to come out just for that reason. The headrests are pimp and have the speakers built in.
