Automobile Magazine

Anyone get the new Automobile magazine? I just got it today and there is the G37 in a sharp blue color (Athens Blue?) on the cover. Inside, the article is similar to the one we all have read already, although not word for word. They mention that the 6-speed is a revised version of that in the sedan. That stuck out for me as I was starting to think that the 6-speed was a straight carryover from the sedan. The pics inside are a bunch from the infamous early test drive as well as some other shots we haven't seen before (at least I don't think so). I checked the web site but the cover isn't up yet.


Hope this isn't a repost.

They also have pictures of the interior. While I thought the interior of the coupe was identical to the sedan, I noticed a double stitch that runs across the door.

You're killin' me! I want to see that Athens Blue again. I don't subscribe to Automobile, so I'll have to wait 'til it hits the newstand I guess.

What month is the G37 in? The latest one I received was May and it has an M3 on the cover. I hope I get it soon.

I'll try when I get into work (can't guarantee I can), but someone will have to tell me how to post the pics.

Another tid-bit: They say that the 3.7 is exclusive to the 08 coupe and that the revised transmission (6-speed) will be used in the sedan as well in '08.

I have that issue. The color of the G37 on the cover appears to be photoshopped to a bright light blue color- it's neither Athens Blue or Lakeshore Slate.

Sorry, fellas. Each page still works out to 160kb, which is more than I am allowed to upload. I tried "reducing file size" but it was still greater than 100 kb. If you let me know you email address I can email it to you. It's not a great scan, but it's a scan....
