For certain it'l have split outlets. I would be quite surprised if they stuck with the current look, especially since the coupe has the better exhaust look already.

agranado

my god. If infiniti keeps these looks for the G its going to be very, very sick.

Auto engineers seldom do what's best... they do what the bean counters tell 'em to do to get the car built within the price range the marketing people have told the bean counters to tell the engineers they have to work with

MaximaPower

but we all know nissan/infiniti are good at listening to the consumers.

i also believe that the sedan went with the single exhaust so that it's not as loud as the duals on the coupe

looks a lot like m35/45

The other pic didn't look believable... this one above, does. If this is what it looks like, I'm a happy camper. That shit is hot.

fast-tl

Thankfully it doesn't seem night and day from teh current one. I'll only be able to afford a used 05 or 06. When can we expect this new design on the street?

picus

Late '06 as an '07 model.

Still has the same overall body look as the current G35 sedan, but I'm hoping on Apr 12th it looks a little bit aggressive looking different than that pic. Let's really hope seriously they made the rear more aggressive like I said before. Come on, they really need dual exhausts like the coupe and the M! Even my 4 cyl TSX has a fake dual exhaust

kurt_bradley

Anyone notice the more interesting part in the middle of the cover? That gets my attention.

Mokos23

Yeah that Acura sketch reminds me a bit of the Cadillac XLR

I think this old news from Autospies...Spies indicate the front end will look like the coupe concept.

i hope you're right, because although that design looks good on the M Series, I think the G should stand sportier and younger in appearance.

Mokos23

1 more day correct until they unveil the next gen G35 sedan?! Woo-hoo!
I predict that it maybe a 50/50 thrilled or disappointed at how it will look

titan

Thanks for the link. I got excited when the article mentioned the sedan would be as good looking as the Coupe Concept. I really hope the Coupe Concept's front is just grafted to the sedan. I love the way it looks. It'd be nice if the Concept's rims made it to production too.

titan

I thought they were doing it Friday. Will it be tomorrow (Wed)? I hope so.

Mokos23

You know taking a look at that G coupe concept again, it reminds me a bit of an Aston Martin DB7 just only a little.

MaximaPower

i dont see any Aston in the coupe concept

but man I can't wait!!!! i think this is the most anticipated car

^^ that almost didn't even change... is that just a refresh???

picus

No, it's a re-design. Not sure how legit those pics are, but I don't see why not.

mrdeeno

the profile is very similar, but then again can you really change a profile of ANY car these days?

It tail lights look really good, especially comapred to the current model, and the front looks like the M...and a little like the saturn sky from the other thread with the projector.

i'm totally pissed about the gauges though...i'm stuck with orange "eclipse" gauging which is a gimmick, while this g35 gets cool bluish/whitish gauges.

fast-tl

Where has this thing been that it already had 73 miles on it?

phile

Wow. It's a better interpretation of the M35/45 headlights. Glad to see the orange gauges gone.

But I think it might've been better to retain the double air dams in the lower bumper rather than go with this three dams design.

MaximaPower

ughh...i'm still not impressed with that interior...what happened to the concept's interior ?

the a/c controls look like it came from GM or Ford...exterior looks good tho

mrdeeno

the concepts interior was TITS, but it would probably add $10k to the price of each car.

Remember, this car is still trying to sell at the $35-40k range, so they still have to keep costs down somewhere. I'm willing to bet that the interior material quality will only take one step up and be just on par with the class. It's quality isn't going to be at the levels of the M.

gavriil

7500 rpm redline?

03TL-S

Heres a better view. I personally think its a really good improvement compared to the current one

mr5parkle

improvement on the exterior, but not overly impressed

any info. on the motor packages?

Are these real or just a photoshop?

They basically made it look more upscale

gavriil

You can see a glimpse of the engine above...

tuan209

doesnt it seem long for a g35? i personally think its a photoshop.

fast-tl

The badge still says G35; I wonder what that means for engine choices?

mrdeeno

if the redline is true, I doubt the engine is much larger than 3.5L...as this engine is not know for high rpm refinement at such large displacements.

But it may have been improved to handle higher RPMs without sacrificing displacement or refinement while tuned for higher hp rather than more torque. At least 310hp?

But then again, that's if the redline is really as indicated on these pics. Or maybe this is the optional "smaller" displacement engine?

titan

I'm very, very pleased. This car is beautiful, and is the faithfull interpretation of the Coupe Concept plus two doors I was hoping it'd be. The profile shape is different, sure. But the door cuts and greehouse glass are different, and you know just by looking it's a brand new car. The rear lower bumper treatment, with the small taillamp lips above the dual chrome pipes are nice done. The taillamps are similar, but you can see they actually protrude a little, like Lexus is doing on there car's rear lamps. I love the aggressive front. The way the hood caves in a little from the haunchin' fenders is nice. The lastest interpretation of the Infiniti grill is the best to date. I love the look of the M headlamps, while not being a total ripoff of them. Having just one projector affords the M the space to still claim it's spot as the big brother. I with the wheels from the Coupe Concept made it to this car. As for the interior, the layout is exactly like the concept! What's wrong with it. The look and feel from the pic isn't one of "cheapening out," IMHO. I guessing that the center stack will also be available in Rosewood, which would make it really sharp. The single best thing about this car is the new guages. No more amber lighting! I'm surprised there isn't a G37 badge on the back of that car... I guess they keeping it G35. You could call it Dolly Pardon for all I care... this'll be my next car.

titan

It's real.

Mokos23

Does anyone think Acura needs to step it up even further now? I think so, cause the next gen G35 coupe and sedan look badass to me now than any Acuras. The only thing wrong in the past with Infiniti was the interior. Now, they've improved that and Acura better make the next gen TL and TSX soon.
