I still like my 04 better for it's boldness, I think the 08 exterior will grow on us, once people start modding them. Specifically, body kits, springs, wheels. You know how we do it

The 08 Coupe has lost its uniqueness and looks like something Lexus would make. The Coupe and Sedan look too much alike now, and the new Coupe headlights are no longer unique.

A 350Z would be the best buy- more agressive than either. I wonder how the redesigned 350Z will turn out.

Everyone needs to chill out. First of all, this is a pre-production model. Who knows what tweeks they'll make before August or whenever it's supposed to show up. Second of all, I'll bet that more than half of you will say they really like it after they see it in person. It is almost always that way. Even AutomobileMag stated that the car seems more muscular in person than it looks in photos. Third, this car is very close to the concept save for a different front bumper, 19''s instead of 20''s, and the higher ride height. That should have been expected.

I think that the 55 hp increase over the '07 is awesome. Was not expecting that much!

It's less than 30HP for the 6MT, but weighs 200+ lbs more, so it may not be so noticeable... Can't wait to test drive one tho'

It's 55, The new SAE ratings gave the current 07 G35 275HP(Autos) 293HP for 6MT or so, so if the 330HP is to the new SAE ratings its a 55HP increase.
