"Nissan dudes" (meaning guys in charge) said 90% of it will translate to the production car. I'd guess the interior will be entirely different (obv) and it'll lose the panoramic moonroof, otherwise I'd say you're lookin at the '08 coupe.

I've also heard that the production version will look "more square" than the concept coupe .....

Yeah! Thats pretty awesome.. My '06 G35 Coupe will be out of lease on May
'08 - Just in time for a new one, But by then there be plenty of choices - Skyline GTR, New G35 Coupe, New Supra, and hopefully an IS350 Coupe... I guess we've have to wait to see what they'll look like..

I'd guess the interior will be similar to the '07 sedan, just like the last gen was - Nissan/Infiniti may be trying to go more upscale, but lord knows they still love parts sharing. 
On the exhaust, I'd have to guess that won't be in production. I may be wrong, who knows, but I doubt somehow I don't see them making such a proprietary system. We'll see. (I like it too, btw).

You have to get the sport to get the paddle shift and a few other features that are standard on the IS350. Also th base price is lower but the IS has more standard features. Keyless access and start are standard, leather seats are standard and moonroof, plus the paddleshifters are standard and last time i checked HID are optional on G35. So comparably equipped the IS may be the better value.

"Value" is relative.
The Acura owner will say his car is the best value b/c it is loaded for say 35k but his car is FWD and Accord based with some areas not top quality and is best for the snow.
The Infiniti owner will say his car is the best value b/c for 35k you can get some options and its RWD but shares platforms with 4 or 5 other vehicles and its cheaper than the IS.
The Lexus owner will say his car is the best value b/c compared to the 3 series its cheaper and it has Lexus build quality and tons of standard features and dealer service/quality is the best but it handles not the best.
The BMW owner will say his car is the best value b/c its the standard in the class and compared to the outgoing model you get more features and more power for about the same money.
Bottom line, no one should have to really PROVE why they bought the car to anyone else. Buy it and enjoy it.

I agree. How come I can not say something as intelligent as you, when we think the same way?

We aren't even offered the PCS & Radar cruise options for the IS350 in Canada I think . . .

So when does the new coupe go on sale. Coupe concept looks better than the ugly sedan.

MSM, how many more rude comments are you going to make? I think people are sick of you in this thread already.

This is a picture i found on the net. It does appear to be badged as a nissan. Plus from how it looks, it does look sculpted a little more fluently like the new coupe concept and has very similar headlights like the coupe concept. Whats your take on this?

Not liking that coupe concept drawing. The coupe is supposed to come out next Spring as an 08 model. I think around April.
