No concept I have seen thus far is worthy of the marque. Americans are so rabid for anything with the R badge they would take any bone Nissan tossed them.
Man, I don't think you'll have to worry. I'm sure the production car will look nothing like the concept version. Think about what the concept 350Z looked like. It looked like my butt, only not as hot. But look at the end result, I think the Z is pretty sexy.
Also, that latest concept pic floating around the net taken at nurburgring...I am SURE that Nissan is not stupid enough to be driving around a car in near-production finish for your average joe schmo to see at a public racetrack. They probably did what every other manufacturer does and put V35 skin on a completely different car, just to fool with you. Manufacturers will go to some crazy extremes to cover up their testing. I recently went to an interview with Toyota at their proving grounds, and they wouldn't let me outside, and they covered up EVERYTHING in their garage except the X-runner.
