If this gets any worse I'm gonna have the fever as bad as Shane .
But you Ian, your ride is set up soooo sweet, it's a beautiful car. They keep waving that apple in front of us and it keeps getting redder and sweeter . So tempting.

LOL Wayne, I think you're hooked. It sure sounds great and that review was extremely complimentary.

I just keep telling myself.....only 75 days to go!

Yes I am surprised how nicely tuned it sounds. Mind you that was one of the objectives in the design process to have pleasing exhaust note.

I wonder if the production version of the Sport model will have the "S" on the trunk like in this video?

0-60 for the 6MT is different in every review ive seen. Some claim 5.2 or 5.3, but from the test settings, im positive 5.2 is more accurate.

Awesome video! I'm a little disappointed that the sport front bumper is the frowning version. IMO, the regular version looks more sporty. I sure hope pricing info gets released soon.

Looks like we now know for sure which bumper is on the sport models.

Thanks for posting the review! It seems as if every single time anyone mentions the G35, they are include the obligatory "BMW's handle better but cost a lot more" comment--guess that won't go away soon.

well the problem with the intelligent steer will probaly be fix for 08, just wished that they had the paddle shifters move with the steering wheel, nissan also said that they got 10% better fuel economy but this one is rated at the same

Is it November yet? I am sold on the 07; But then chances are that by delivery time we will know a little more on the 08 coupe. Damn, this sucks....
