At the end of the day, our cars are just that cars. Transportation, a tool. Our culture has a tendency to judge and perceive people by what cars they drive, which I think is ridiculous. People who do this are too self-conscious and insecure of themselves.
a car is not just a car, it is a living piece of art. i am by no means a car fanatic like most of you guys here, but people get attached personally because there is something beyond just the machine, the sheet metal tells a story.

my 2 cents is that at the end of the day, if you are happy driving your G, good for you ! and if you get insulted by the hyundai fanbois, take them to the track and prove who is king.

why are so many people hating on this car so much? You should be praising any car company trying to design a rear wheel gt or sports car instead of the fwd blunders they so often come up with. And who cares if they "copy" infiniti's design, isn't copying the highest form of flattery. And it's not like infinity is the originator of the "coupe" bodystyle.

I give cudos to them and hope it becomes refined as much as they can make it. I'm all for car companies making grate cars. How awsome would that be - a world full of great cars.

Wow didn't realize there was this many haters on the forum. People only hate things they wish they had or what they see as a threat. You do realize that this is basically you saying you are worried this Gen Coupe will take away from the status you think you have achieved. Why are BMW owners worried about Infiniti? Because you get just about everything they have + some unique features for less $$. Why are you all hating? because the Gen coupe offer G37 styling, potentially comparable quality and performance for less $$. All these cars are in the same segment and in order to compete effectively, will offer comparable or identical features and sometimes styling. Do you see Audi R8 owners or Maserati Grandturismo owners worried about what the Gen Coupe, 335i or G37 have in store next? No. Hate on though, it provides entertainment for the rest of us

i was going to take a genesis coupe or new camaro when it will be presented to states, but had a good deal on '08 g37s fully loaded so i just bought infiniti. in no way can i regret, but still gen coupe will be a very nice car. it already looks more sporty, it responds to bolt-ons as g37 does not, less luxury in interior (and i absolutely adore g37 interior), but performance wise, gen coupe will be comparable or even better. at least it's not as heavy stock-to-stock. also i would give away my 4was system if anyone could swap that
ps> and yes, 380gt (it's korean name) sounds similar and sweet.
