Those doors are like 3 feet long...that is really weird. I trust you TK...but...it REALLY looks like the sedan.

Does anyone think anything from the front will be transferable to our car?

If not..they just kicked Stillen in the balls...they went threw all the R&D for the coupe Fascia and it lasted 2 years?

That's not an Altima Coupe. Want to know why? Look in the middle of the car at the rear seat. There is a rear head rest there. Now go look at the back of your coupe - is there a rear head rest for the middle seat? Nope.

In fact, the car looks almost smaller than the 370Z in the photo, which is also a miss for me. The hood has the wrong lines to it in the front as well. Even the tires look too thin.

It's not a Coupe.

Agreed

Here is something too...

This has no lights in the rear view mirrors. Why are they filming a comercial with a 2.5S? They always take photos of the 3.5SE (or SR) say it starts at 20,500$ and add "As shown 26,000$"

AND

To fight my own point...it is a coupe because there are no side trims on the doors. The sedan has a piece about 1/3 of the way up and the coupe doesn't. They could have removed it for 2010, but...which ever.

looks like a tsx. if the new headlights dont fit in the 08-09 model, does that mean we will never see aftermarket headlights?

i was reading and looking like "thats some rsx-like headlights" and someone says it.. lol Its not a convert, cause u see "roof" unless its a hardtop! o man.. lol and yea, the 3.5 lights on the mirrors. Maybe their doing another shoot where you see only a glimpse, so it would not matter if it was a higher trim, your just going to see the new side profile and then "coming soon" or something. lol

The more I look at it, the more Sentra sized it looks. Maybe they're making the Sentra resemble the Coupe more closely?

Sentra Coupe, chance of that is Zero % for 2010. Its the 3rd year cosmetic refresh for the Alti Coupe we should expect a major redesign 2012-13....oh and headrest, bwahahha, look at your coupe, its the break light.

Whys that? You have some insider information? But really...who said it was 2010? Maybe this is a 2011 Sentra Coupe?

I think that is a darn good idea of what this actually is!!!

The Sentra would have shorter Coupe doors...it would explain the mirrors (The Sentra doesn't have blinker mirrors on any trim) and it would explain why we ALL think it looks so small...

Nissan IS making a sentra coupe! they have pics of it on the Nissan USA site... its under the future car list... they dont call it a sentra coupe but its obviously a 2 door sentra. they've been working on it for a while so a sentra coupe is POSSIBLE but idk if that is really what this is.

change the grill and you have a sentra coupe.... those are pics of the concept so there is a chance that the pic of the red car could be the production version.... i dont think it is all that likely but we cant say for that it is not a sentra coupe.

hussain, that concept car has been a concept for a while now, and i dont think it will make it to production.

as for the red car in the picture, i believe it is definitely an altima coupe.

we will all know for sure when nissan announces the 2010MY altima.

not to brag or anything, but im probably gonna see the new ones in person and drive them before anyone of yall. i work at a storage facility for 3 big nissan dealerships on long island, so my job basically is to drive around, and park cars all day.

I can see what appears to be turn signals on the mirrors

Again the chance of a Sentra Coupe for 2010 is ZERO %. Thanks for that website, I've never been there before.... important safety tip thanks Egon.

The anticipation of this is killing me.

I really dislike the look of the red car, and in all honestly, I don't think it's a Altima Coupe, or an Altima for that matter. I know the guy who posted the photos also took them said it was the new A/C, but unless he saw ALTIMA on the trunk, it's just speculation. I also for the sake of the A/C owners hope this isn't the car because I think it looks fugly!

If Nissan read these forums and listened to us NICO Members, they'd know exactly what the people want.

There's no way it's an Altima in any sort. The hood is way to short, the body lines are wrong, there's no turn signals on the mirrors, and there'd be no reason to do a complete redesign on a vehicle that's only been out for 3 years. Everything about that picture is too small.

Seriously, it's not the Altima.

Well, looks like we're gonna have a lot of Pizzed off Alti drivers, I have to agree, I like the 08-09 better, but thats the 3rd year cosmetic "refresh" Hood, lights and front bumper...I actually am not happy that I am right...that is no where near a redesign, but it ain't good.

And seriously it is the Altima.

Not trying to be an a**... but technically it's only been out for 2 years...

How do you know that for certain? Nissan hasn't confirmed it directly, the photographer never said he saw the back side of the car where the badge for the model is. He took a photo of a new "Nissan Coupe" which he confirmed by seeing only 2 doors and we can see clearly on the front grille is a Nissan Burger from the photo.

but it looks like an altima. im not sure why nissan would change the way it looks already because the coupe has only been out for 2 years, if anything it should have been the sedan, but it's not.

its stupid but Nissan is looking at it as an altima, not an altima coupe. the altima came out in 07. 07 to 08 to 09 is 3 years. the older altimas 02 to 03 to 04 got a redesign in 05 so 3 years later. it makes sense, its just that the COUPE has only been out for 2 years so it threw me off.
