Not many sedans can pull off the sports car look. This one looks pretty nice, although I think the grill needs some tweaking. It looks far better than the G37.

Looks nice, the question is does the sedan cost more or less than the coupe? One would think the sedan would have more luxury but (potentially) less power and more weight... If its more $ than the coupe, I see a very limited market for these....

Historically, sedans are always cheaper then their 2 door counterpart.

How about some recent sedan/coupe costs.... Hyundai Genesis (coupe and sedan), Porsche Panamera / 911 (close enough), Tesla Roadster and new sedan... just a couple but it does happen and I brought this up because one is called Nissan and the other Infinity.....

Looks really good actually. However i doubt it would ever end up looking like this, and is this actually being released, when?

the front reminds me of a hybrid between the nissan gtr and the infiniti fx, the rear looks like an x6. however it does look production ready so this might really be what it'll come out looking like or at least very close

This is by far one of the best concepts I've seen within the past year.

Unfortunately, I don't think the production model would actually look that good.

It's a third party rendering. This is about as useful as silly string.

This thread isn't complete w/o an anti-Japanese/GTR comment...

Other than that... that looks really good. The GTR should really have looked something like that instead of the pug-like blackened front.
