I still would have taken the $3000 off msrp for my 05 G35S. If there is an increase on the msrp of 06s, then it will be that increase plus $3000 more expensive than the 05s. None of these changes beats the 298 hp jump from 04 to 05. I take my cheaper 05 gladly.

Bluetooth, memory seats/steering, and projectors would be awesome. Well.. I bought a bluetooth kit for my car and I guess I can live w/out the memory seats/steering, but I want those projectors!

1) The Intelligent Key
2) Rear Active Steer will be available as options.
3) Bluetooth®
4) Driver’s seat and steering wheel memory, and automatic entry/exit assist.
5) Sport-Tuned Suspension Package will have a unique front fascia, side sills and newly designed optional rear spoiler (standard on 6MT models).
6) Project-beam bi-xenon headlights
7) Vehicle-speed-sensitive power steering
8) 15.1:1 steering gear ratio
9) Redesigned taillights

That really stinks for us new 2005 coupe owners!!

I'd speculate that they are trying to acheive similar results to Nissan's HICAS systems. Like with HICAS, changes to suspension geometry would likely be minor. I tended to describe the HICAS system and an active rear toe system. It worked by optimizing rear toe for sharp turn-in when initially starting a turn(toe-out), then added stability during the rest of the turn by adding toe-in. For most drivers it will be virtually transparent. Many die-hard drivers tend to feel the system makes the car rather unpredictable. It will be interesting to hear exactly what this new system does though.

1. How does the intelligent key work to start the car? Do you just hold the key closely to the car and it auto starts?

3. What does the 15.1:1 steering gear ratio mean?

4. What is the Vehicle-speed-sensitive power steering?

Most importantly
5. What does bulbs would the new bi xenon lights use? They definitely won't use the D2R bulbs right? lol...I'm almost definite they don't, but I want to ask because of some group buy.

Please answer anyone you can.
1. The intelligent key can be used to start your car if you have the key within a certain range of you car. Let's say you have your key in your giriflriend's/wife's purse. When the purse is within a certain range of the car, you can just turn on the car like you normally would. But how do you turn the ignition if no key is inserted? Have a look...

and here is the picture of the intelligent key
