Not yet, should be pretty similar to the 4 dr, just more agile.

The more I look at the pics... that tunnel the exhaust is in would suit a driveshaft very well. I didnt pay much attention to how wide it opens up towards the front towards the engine bay though.

Makes me think this could be a predecessor of a RWD Sport Compact or at least could be converted fairly easily by putting another drivetrain in. Hmmmm.

The reviews for this car are not very flattering.

They speak of a heavy car with a very bad front-end weight bias (something like 67% for the V6) and a soft suspension.

I hope it can sell on it's looks alone.

Well I've only read positive reviews so far. This is nissan's master plan. Nissan is putting out the Altima Coupe so people who own the current generation G35 coupe get offended and go out and buy a G37.

Underside look like any other 02+ altima along with the mid pipe and resonator section. The SE without the resonator and g35/z style exhaust should sound pretty damn good, I had a similar setup on my 02 3.5SE back in the day (mossy exhaust) and it definatly sounded awesome. Looks like an good buy for someone that wants some sport and a rear seat. Thumbs up for torque steer.
