I don't think so. A person going to buy an Infinity G35 won't be hindered at all by the introduction of the Altima. You should remember the person buying a G35 vs an Altima coupe equate to, two completley different people. One being a person looking for a luxury car while the other is looking for an affordable stylish coupe. Just my .02 cents.

For those that have seen it in person:

How does it compare in size to the 350z/g35? People mention it as a tC compeditor, but that would make me think it would be pretty small.

I think that it looks nice, and will def. be a good seller for Nissan. I don't think that it will be a competitor to the TC, since the TC is priced well under what I expect this car to start at. Also the TC does no offer a v6. I'll bet that this is aimed strait at the Pontiac G6 coupe, Accord, and Solara coupe. I also do not think that this car will canibalize sales of the G35 coupe... 2 different types of buyers.

Really, the final MSRP is going to determine the while market segment for this thing. Its almost nice enough to compete along side the Z and G35, Which would put it in the $30K (loaded) range. To be a TC Competitor, it needs to start well south of $20K and below the well Altima Sedan in pace. It would dominate that market segment.

The Whole 2+2 Thing makes it Super attractive to those of us with a small family.

does it get the new HR 3.5?

yes I know, I sold Nissans for a while What I'm saying is the Alti coupe is getting the new gauges from new redesigned sedan.

So nothing for you to gripe about

I'm almost 100% positive it won't. The new Altima sedan doesn't have it.

Nissan will not be dumb enough to do that. Not everyone will be able to afford the GTR. The Z is an affordable entry 2 seater sports car.

I was checking the Nissanusa.com website and they have the Altima Coupe headlining.

I checked out the interior pics and wonder oh why don't they update the Z's ineterior?

Not to say the Z and Altima are direct competitors but don't they know it might hurt the Z's sales in regards to the casual consumer? I know I know, the 4cyl will be the biggest seller but still...

(thanks for playing along and humoring the thread)

Uh, it looks just like the Z's interior.

Uh, looks a bit nicer. Esp the wheel. And the gauges. And the starter button.

Looks nice, but I wouldn't really say its an upgrade from the Z aside from some steering wheel buttons I wouldn't care about.

Especially without the nav, and most of them won't have it.

personally, i like the z interior, it is everything i would expect from a sportscar. and starter buttons are useless IMO

because the Z is a sports car. you don't like the interior go buy a G35C, or that Altima

just because its a sports car is no excuse for lack luster interior craftmanship.

Z04

iTrader: (15)

ever see a ferarri or lambo interior? those are really lack luster but i never heard anyone complain about them. all i said was you want luxury, get a luxury car. with the Z, you get what you get, a sports car with out all the bells and whistles.

Obviously the interior has been created so why not update the Z's? I mean give me a reason why they shouldn't? Not to say the Coupe's interior is the best in the world but at least make the Z's inviting.
