Design of the coupé

[DAAN.]

I know the hood is taken from the Altima sedan. The tailights, headlamps have been modified from the same sedan.

What about the rest ? G35 ? G37 perhaps ? (am thinking the poor man's G, as it is locally called)

[psi101101]

some parts look like the pontiac G6 i believe

Id say it looks similar to the G6 but i sure hope they didnt pull a kia and copy their coupe.

Im more inclined to think the a/c looks like the g35/37. Some may not like it, but it is definitely is the poor mans g. People ask me all the time if thats an infinity.

..... Some may not like it, but it is definitely is the poor mans g. People ask me all the time if thats an infinity.

I get that all the time, people asking me if that's a G.. The AC def. has a G style influence that's for sure!

When I was shopping for a car I looked and compared three cars, the 350Z, G35, and the Alti Coupe.

350 was out - no back seats; I need to transport kidsG35 - fully equipped was $45K Reasonable and swaying towards that.3.5 AC - fully equipped with everything the G had and $15K less...

So you guys do the math.... If you ask me, I say the AC is not the poor man's G but rather the smart man's G... other than the G being rear wheel drive, it shares all the same electronics so why pay more than you have to...

I think the altima coupe looks like the altima coupe.

Yup.

Yup.

and I for one love it

[JDRosenberg07]

Anyone notice when they G37 came out it looks almost identical to the A/C from the side profile??

So is the A/C a poor mans G37? Or is the G37 an overcompensating mans A/C?

I guess that depends on your pen15 size now huh...

[Curtieson]

I guess that depends on your pen15 size now huh...

Cut right to the chase,don't ya, haha

Ok, I think that is it...the A/C is the poor mans G35 (2008) and the G37 is the Small pen15 Man's A/C (2009)

Someone right that in stone somewhere...I only speak the truth.

Why do you think i have the 2.5?

[DAAN.]

haha ... funny ^

Shouldve been NISSAN C25 and C35; I have no idea why they went with the name Altima, as it seems only shares hood tail / headlamps and the common VQ engine

[Kanard]

so cuz i have a altima coupe? it means i cant afford a g? "poor mans g" i get a neg vibe when i hear it, even if its supposed true. I wanted the A.C not the g35.. now if the 7 was out at the time.. lol But it looks like a alti, i dont think it looks like a G6, or a Tc.. and can Nissan not have a coupe based altima? *cough accord* or is it cause there are so many in lineup at the moment? ... alticoupe, z coupe, thats the only nissans right now. . Civic coupe, and accord coupe.. Am i going in the right direction? lol You follow me?

[Chuck2417]

I originally wanted the G35, rear wheel drive and a little bit faster than the A/C. However once pricing comes into the picture... Whole different ball game, so I made the obvious choice of the Altima coupe over the G. Also looked at the 350z, but that car is too low for winter driving in Saskatchewan...

Erm, the entire powertrain is the same, the interior styling is the same...

And the headlamps are not.

Im with you man.. I just purchased the Coupe coming from 3rd gen sedan. I was looking at the same cars. Too bad the G would prob lose to its brother the altima coupe..

[6SpdAltima_Coupe]

Too bad the G would prob lose to its brother the altima coupe..

it has..ive checked out numerous videos on youtube and it all has the same result-A/C over the G35 cuz the G's pretty heavy..i could be wrong tho..? but regardless if im right or not about it..dont mess with a 37 lol

[rich2342]

Yeah,

G37's are badass.. I tested one when i was looking for the altima. I drove the automatic and man was it fast and powerfull.
