I know it's early, but any rumors about 2011?

There was a thread here about that back in January

It is apparently going to be the non-turbo 2.5L.

So is it not worth it to wait for the 2011 model G to come out if I'm in the market for a car now since it won't have any significant upgrades (better paint, 7AT fixes)? Just jump on the 2010?

The paint on the 2010 was already changed from the "self-healing" crap back to conventional. I'm guessing that will stay the same for 2011. The self-healing paint still gets swirls, and it's a PIA to correct. The paint on my 2010 corrected beautifully and is swirl free (for now!).

I'm sure there will be minor appearance and option changes, but if you wait until 2011, then you'll probably lament the changes on the 2012, and so on. If you need a new car now, I'd go ahead and pull the trigger.

search around.... just like the Lexus has their IS250 and IS350 and are both V6 engines... the G will have the same variance.

just some FYI... the G37x sedan has a EPA of 18/25 while the IS250 is 19/26...just say the G25 will probably be better figures for fuel efficiency

Why? The torque from electric motors is instantly available. The Tesla has a 3.7 second 0-60 time. Having a hybrid so you still get the cool exhaust sound and the added power of the electric motor(s) would be best of both.

I doubt there will be a G Hybrid as a M Hybrid is coming out with a 3.5L V6. That would put the output in the same league and robs the M of novelty.

The G25 is coming out without turbo to compete with the likes of 323/328, IS250, TSX, etc. It looks the same except for the badge.

I think in the new generation, Nissan will do D.I. on the engine if they haven't already started using Mercedes engines :P
