Why is it that the G35 doesn't come as a Roadster? Thats would be slick as hell, in my books. And don't say because it has four seats the Boxster has 4 and the M3 converible has four, Jaguar makes a 4 seats soft top. So thats not a factor. Most people love em!

Another non-factor is that the 350ZR exist why have the same vehicle under a different name, a writer stated the same about the 350Z touring and the G35C, we all know thats not true they are two different animals with different purposes.

I'm just saying why not? I think it would sale!!

The market is not large enough and BMW owns the current market share.

I'm having the absolute worst week at work... This just made me smile during a sea of being entirely and completely pissed off.

Thank you.

They are making it to get in the BMW 3 Series Roadster / M Roadster market.

I havent seen any official pix or the actual car... but it will be out in 09 along with a new Q and a new QX based on the NISSAN PATROL platform.
