Those wheels are Fuggly! I sure am glad I got my 08 when they were giving the leases away. 30 extra horsepower does not make up for those hideous wheels! And I certainly wouldn't pay an extra $1700 for it.

look closer and you can see the coupe's BBK inside those ugly wheels.
Damn Nissan could have saved engineering $$$ by slap the coupe's wheels on it.

Ugh, I think I see my first set of aftermarket wheels in my future. Perhaps I can find some coupe 18 or 19's or even the current sedan 18's on the cheap at a salvage yard.

PERFECT. I can really give a care about the wheels, once I get the car the Volks are coming on anyways. I wasn't sure if they were going to make it a G37 have been looking for info on it so I don't get a G35 and then they make a G37. I can't wait until next year for it to come out.

Funny, I remember when the 07' G came out, everyone was saying how ugly the wheels looked.

Now everyone likes them, LOL. Myself included!

Actually you would think they would do less. If they would have just badged it as a G35 99.9% of the public would never notice it as anything out of the ordinary.

New pics of a garnet ember: Motive Mag. New spoiler. Looks good. More detail of interior switches as well.

It looks like the side and rear bumper indentations are a bit more pronounced.

I looked at some of those new pictures and I wanted to be able to say. You know those wheels aren't that bad. They are just different.

Then I took a good look at them and I can't help but think that they look flimsy because they are so thin and flat. They just look like they are plastic.

When the 07 came out some people(including me) didn't like the wheels. However, I wasn't totally against them. I was just used to my 05's wheels. With these 09 wheels I can tell you "I hate them". I would never buy a car with those wheels on it.

Something isn't right about that rear spoiler:



The previous "spy pic" at Pebble Beach shows the more attractive 07-08 spoiler:



As previously mentioned, the chrome finisher on the top of the trunk is missing. If the first photo is the actual spoiler, I'm not getting that option.
