The G35 oozes sex appeal...the M45 requires you to drink a lot of beer and get beer goggles to find it sexy.

Given it's officially a 2+2 coupe, calling it a "seat" is an overstatement. Chances are it's just a small storage space (as in the MR-2 Spyder). Check out the Z350 and you'll notice it hardly has space in the back. Given they both come from the same platform and is similar mechanically the Z would be a good gauge of what space you have to deal with.


From the official anouncment:

The G35 Sport Coupe shares the sedan’s long 112.2-inch wheelbase but is slightly shorter in overall length (182.2 inches versus 186.5) and height (54.9 inches versus 57.9). With its performance-oriented chassis, wider wheel openings and fenders, the G35 Sport Coupe is also several inches wider than the sedan (71.5 inches versus 68.9).

So...it ain't a luxo-cruiser but you probably do have decent room in the back.

I'm already head over heels for the G35 coupe

With NISMO coming to America, and the fact that the G35 is the Nissan Skyline in Japan, can you imagine what the aftermarket is going to do to that coupe

Don't forget the GT-R concept. Though how it looks right now just doesn't go well with my taste.

The G35C is awesome!

I am sorry but that M45 is hideous, it looks like the old Q45 (95-00) with a few styling "enhancements". We all know how well that car went over here in the states.

Sorry, but I don't like the M45's look...it's a bit too square for my taste. On the other hand, the G35 is like eye-candy...and to get a taste of it would be even better!...
