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!

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

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.

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

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