How much will current G35 prices drop after G37 release?

Prices won't drop at all. Our vehicles are highly sought after and will be for some time to come. If anything...there will be people more interested in the first generation coupes because of their reputation for low-dollar high-performance, reliability, and value-retention. It doesnt hurt that some favor the styling of the Gen1 coupe over the Gen2 G37. Good deals on Gen1 coupes will remain rare! Especially the six speed manuals which accounted for a little over 5% of overall production.

just my 2 cents.
in my experience, with a good looking car like ours that is reliable and amazing...the prices won't necessarily even go down, because dealers will pull the: if you're 'lucky enough to find one on a lot, from a reputable dealer' BS, and charge top dollar. Even the first few months when the g37's are out, they will probably be short on those, so they'll be like, 'well, if you have the $$, we'll sell you one of our LAAAAST g35's, if you're lucky...and have enough cash...Cuz now they're out of production and in 'demand.'
(For example: Try getting a Lexus IS300 in good shape from a dealer now that the IS250/350 is out, for a good deal at all! They usually are charging more than they did 4 years ago when they were in production! )
BUT!!
If you try to buy one used off of craigslist or something, you now have the 'well, the g37's are out, so you'll be lucky to sell this car to ME...' card that average people will play int, cuz they're not dealers.

Don't fool yourself. Their are plenty of people out their that still like the 1st generation Coupes. However, there will always be a deal here or there with the right timing for a G35 Coupe just as there will be for the G37 once it cools next year.
