Great photo, Chris :thumbup: Is that from the New York Auto Show? Because the Cleveland show had it on an angled turntable that made it difficult to see sitting flat, you know, how you would normaly look at a car. I'm glad to see that they dumped the standard mast antenna (yeah, in some other prototype photos there was a black antenna on the passenger rear quater pannel). That's the first real good shot of the car that I've seen. If you have others, please post.

No, I did a search on the web for a quick photo and found it. But I'll post my GTO pics in a second...lemme resize them.

Holy school bus colors!! The pics are pretty good, but I wish they used red or silver. Car looks good, though.

Yeah, no kidding. My camera was having a hell of a time trying to find the perfect white balance.

The display in Cleveland was like pic # 2, only about three feet off the ground. I had a great shot of the chasis, though. . I was rather dissapointed with the display when it was here. I really want to see some good pics of the production model. I guess I'll just have to wait.

I wonder how much it weighs...because all that power and a 0-60 time equal to that of an e36 m3 isn't so great. it will probably handle like most american cars(although I hope different). the car has a sweet design though

Mark this day in history! The crew at HAN News&Rumors actually all agree on one car! PLUS, the car they rave about is by none other than General Motors (australian or not)!

This format of car is basically what I had in mind for Infiniti to bring out with and "M-style" G35 Coupe, possibly dubbed G45. That would be sweet!
