I know.....but I think more people would be ok if we heard that it was getting a DCG as the only option apposed to the old 7 speed.

Comments?

If they can pull this off for the same price as the current version or a slight bump this will be murderous! I love the idea for sure

Welcome to 2 hours ago and a few posts above you?

Hmm... Seems somebody knew someone that knew someone after all. Guess we now know who the anonymous source is!

Hoping they at least offer a DCT or improve the 7AT. Either way, as long as it looks close to the concept, this will be my next car. Better start saving now!

Yep. The all new engine with a couple of turbos and more power (and torque obviously) and luxury and more everything won't cost any more. In fact, I heard they were actually cutting the price to be able sell more units. About the same cost as a Corolla is what I heard! I can't find the link...

HP increase is an excellent start. Even better the twin turbo should have a much higher and flatter torque curve than our 3.7L.

I also hope it has that signature exhaust note! That would suck if it looked this good and sounded like crap

On the exhaust not, do you guys remeber the G35 coups sound? And how it sounded toned down in the G37 in stock form?

I wonder how the Turbo aspect will affect the sound.

The coupe usually has a good exhaust tone, so I have no doubt that when this comes out it will have a good tone as well. Interested to see how the turbo will affect the sound as well.

I just hope the turbos are silent. I mean I know turbo technology has come a long way but I am not one for blow off valves and loud spool ups any more. If that makes any sense. Idk, maybe my thinking is different.

dunno:
