great pix.. but i still do not like the back of the G37. it looks so much like a Toyota solora.. the front is nice except the bumper... i think the none sport bumper is alot hotter! the rear..not sure what it is.. either too high, too round, .. or just too ugly :/ maybe it will grow on me. who knows, but nothing is as sexy as the rear of a g35.. the interior is great, just like the sedan. hopefully the car in another coloar would be look better.. do i hear .. IP? man, i can't wait.

The new Altima Coupe looks better than the G37 Coupe. No it doesn't look more expensive or graceful, but it's a sharper design. The Altima Coupe rear end looks killer, it's purposeful, sporty, and the rear under diffuser and the 350Z-like exhaust look great all together. The character line cuts across the low belt of the Altima Coupe giving it a sporty low stance similar to the 350Z. The front end is also a design success when it comes to conveying the sportiness of the Altima Coupe. The Altima Coupe looks a lot shorter and lower than its sedan counter part. Unlike the G, the coupe version of Altima actually looks better and more complete than the sedan. (No thanks to the strange Altezza tail lamps on the Altima Sedan) I wish the new G37 Coupe looked more like the Altima Coupe. Oh yeah, the new Altima Coupe also looks better than the 350Z they had on the lot.
The 3.5L V6 Altima Coupe starts around $25,000. It has more backseat headroom and shoulder room than the G37 Coupe. The trunk has a 33/66 split fold down seats to the passenger cabinet. The rear glass is higher than the G37 Coupe and I can actually sit back there without my head breaking the rear glass. If Nissan decides to make a 4 seater Altima Coupe Convertible - I'll buy one.
Enough Rant, if you guys don't believe me go check it out in person. The new Altima Coupe's got killer looks. I really like it. (Not enough to trade in my RWD G35 Coupe...... fortunately the Altima Coupe is FWD)

The G37 is a beautiful car. All the complaining is starting to really get on my nerves, especially the ones about how people are going to keep their G35s and not get the G37s and then talk about all the bad things about the G37. You can keep your G35... like I care... I'm off getting what the "masterworkers" at Infiniti have been sculpting for years (deposited $500 for black/black fully loaded). Infiniti has done very well with the new generation and I like the more luxurious, yet still sporty, look both inside and out. I praise the people at Infiniti for working so hard on making this next generation G coupe look so great compared to already beautiful current G coupe. Great job Infiniti! You deserve praise.

Everycar that has one, including the Nissan Armada, has some black lense and 4 sensors on the bumper. i dont see any sensors on this G. Sensors aid in reversing and lets u know when ur way too close. all OEM cars with reverse camera has them.

I autoX my car, go to Malibu and track once awhile, so I definitely appreciate RWD performance. I didn't even bother test driving the Altima Coupe because I already know what it's going to do when I brake into the first turn. It's quite a looker, but I will never replace my G35 Coupe with anything FWD. I'll keep my G35, mod it, and perhaps buy an Altima Convertible Coupe for weekend PCH cruise.
On a side note, I think all these debates on the forum are running in circles. Both the G35 and G37 look very very good. I think when people prefer one over another it's like comparing Jessica Alba and Jessica Biel, it's all a matter of preference, but undoubtedly both are way above average..

Its already available in the current 2007 G35 Sedan. Whats new for 2008 (according to spec sheets) is supposedly an integrated IPOD interface~

I'll stick to my G before moving on. IMO the G37 missed it. I think a M45 would be my next purchase for infiniti. Maybe a GT-R when the fury stops on those and the price isn't a high when it first comes out. Might be time also to get the Porsche 911 after my G..
If a car has to grow on me it's not worth it. Like a woman I want her to be like blam I want it, not she has to grow on me WTF is that? The reason I bought my G because I was like "I want that car". I wasn't like "I'll come back sir when it grows on me..IMO..
