Hopefully they put some balls under the hood of that thing. It looks awesome..but if it's like the current G35 Couple in terms of performance :(. Time will tell!

that is so sexy.

Assuming it'll look that nice in 2009, I'll be getting one of them when I have to return my Altima.

Remember - it's not a skyline, it's simply the "GT-R".

:confused:. I have no first hand experience but I always thought that g35 had plenty power and good performance numbers. Well thats what ppl always said, even the ones who had 350z.

God damn. That is the grill that the current G35 needs. Really good update in my opinion. I think the sharper tail in the current G35 looks a bit better though.

agreed. i like it...but why does infinity insist on making the tail lights so damn big? the taillights on the current M take up more than half the backspace. fugly

Well they are ok..nothing stellar. I mean it'll beat your average Taurus but much else and it's done for.

^^ That has to be the worst list ever mostly because of this:
2006 Chrysler 300C
?The 340-horsepower Hemi has to carry 4046 pounds, so it won't run with a Corvette, but it is plenty fast, with a 0-60 time of 6.3 seconds, according to Chrysler.? ? New Car Test Drive

But yet they quote the 0-60 as 4.7 :confused:

Either way the new concept looks pretty hot.

It's quoting NCTD "6.3 seconds according to chrysler" : http://www.nctd.com/review-intro.cfm?Vehicle=2005_Chrysler_300&ReviewID=1557 The 4.7 time they get is from http://www.caranddriver.com/article.asp?section_id=3&article_id=9479 (Car & Driver). Each has a quote from various sources with different times (ie: Lexus claiming certain 0-60 time for IS350 while tests from a certain magazine say otherwise, etc).
