I owned a G37S coupe before my Z and it's hard to believe they are the same car. Apologies to all G37 owners; this just my opinion - it's a Japanese Monte Carlo.

Nissan did a horrible job with the styling proportions, especially the rear quarter of the car. The G35 coupe is one of Nissan's most beautiful cars. The G37 one of it's dorkiest.

To me, the Z is so much more of an honest car - much more primitive. It's louder, has less sound deadening, no sunroof, etc. It's a sports car.

It will be interesting to see what the Q60 really looks like. The different sketches floating around show a much more aggressive car than the G37S. Let's see what the final car ends-up like.

I have to agree on the styling. The G35 was once in a lifetime sweeeeeeettt styling queues. Incredible body lines, especially in the rear quarters. The G37 is a MILF at a teen prom. The "restyle" ruined what was a real classic.

That G35 will be a classic calendar car. The G37...... not sure.
