New Nissan Altima coupe.....
 
Have you guys seen this thing yet? Not a big fan of foreign cars but I think this is arguably one of the best I've ever seen!

shane27 07-17-2007 06:05 PM

i saw a commerical for it and thought it looked great inside and out

I like it.

I think they pulled the styling off very well.

cheap version of the G35 coupe. Looks pretty good for what it is. I have yet to drive a car with a cvt so should be interesting. Def needs a bit more power.

I dunno, 270HP is probably pretty fast, the thing barely weighs 3200LBS. Thats 100+ pounds less then the 350Z. That gives it a better power to weight ratio then an LT1 camaro. Not bad for a front drive econo coupe

I always liked the way it looked on the commercials. And I saw a black one at night at a local mall this weekend and thought it looked great. I wouldn't mind having one as a daily driver :nod:

i don't really like the way it looks actually. i think honda hit the nail on teh head with teh upcoming accord coupe though. anyone see it yet?

i'm still saving my money for a new camaro. i won't have to question the styling, horsepower or where it was built (and where the money goes after the sale).

Skyline GT-R what???

I have a friend with a Civic Si and he was considering trading it in for the Altima coupe 3.5 and when he test drove it he said it was not impressive and pretty much was a dog.

Idk ymmv, I do like the styling tho.

qwikz28 07-19-2007 10:50 PM

the old g35s are very unimpressive as well. felt no nicer than my gf's accord.

thats because Japan over estimates with Hp ratings where as American companies are more conservative about it. so the real dyno numbers are probably around 200hp

CJDZ24_Z28 07-23-2007 08:52 AM

I don't like the styling at all. If I had to like a jap car it would be the Nissan/Infiniti G35 coupe.

didn't they make a new standard so that there wouldn;t be any company over estimating of hp?
