looks pretty nice. i like the front end. i will get ostricised for saying this on this forum, but the front end has similarities to the new mazda front end. aggressive headlights and large grill with emblem. the infiniti one, of course, is much more refined and has nice accents... nice refresh, i wanna see the coupe! the inside is nice as hell too.

^^^ i agree with it having two very similarities with the grille and headlights. I think everyone is a little dissapointed hearing no turbo and the same 3.7 in it. But when the 2nd gen G came out in 2007 it was with the same 3.5 liter, and then they released the coupe a year later with the updated 3.7. There is still hope for the coupe and sedan! I think it looks MUCH better in person than the renderings... That interior looks awesome with some sweet tech upgrades

You guys havent even SEEN it in person yet and you think it looks good! I was having a crisis every time i saw the damned thing. I was ready to go find the keys and take it for a spin haha. It has such a presence in person. You just know this car is special when you see it.

i'm sure it will come. this is a good way to show the new styling.

Janik, any pics? Press shots always bore me, i like more candid shots. Kinda like how the new fully loaded Maxima stands out, this looks bold.

Emad_ Agreed on the similarities with the Mazda.

I just finished watching the recording of official unveiling and they did say Turbo 4 is coming. my guess is the coupe will get a brand new turbo 6 engine come next year I still can't get over how good it looks and all the outstanding tech in it.

This is a VERY good call Dan! Didn't think about it this way...

From 2006 to 2007...yes, the 3.5L was upgraded 8 horsepower and 8 lbs of tq. The major upgrade didn't happen until the transition from 2008 to 2009 where they introduced the 3.7L(comparible to the coupes that were introduced in 2008) into the sedans, another 22HP.

That ELR looks pretty good. Appears to be somewhat small though
