20k-ish but that engine did have a serious issue with oil, I'm hopeful they fixed that in '08.

I really like the styling of this coupe, but my only issue is that if the fully loaded is around 30k, i'd rather buy a base model Z. I say this because my guess is that even though this ride looks sweet and has the VQ35DE plant in it, it's probably still front wheel drive, and won't take much more power added on compared to it's Z and G35 brethren.

the top two pics - do they have the stock rims or is there an upgrade from that? I think they take away from the car because the other parts of the car are flashier.

I really don't know, the dealer production car hasn't arrived yet. So no way to see what the equipment specs are for either car.

a base 350Z goes for about 26k and is the best trim model if you plan on modding it from what I've heard. My friend is kicking himself, because apparently when he was looking at them at a dealership here, they offered him a 2006 for 23k (due to them clearing the lot for 2007s)

That's a nice price, but still a little bit high for me right now.

I drove a Z and i loved it. Just get used to using your mirrors ... there is no/little turning around to look for traffic.

FamilyCar's review is up!: http://familycar.com/RoadTests/NissanAltimaCoupe/

"...For the base price of $20,490 ... For that price, you get a 6 speed manual transmission. If you want an automatic, kick in another $500 for a total of $20,990. The base model has plenty of value without the need to add options to make the car more useable.

Keyless entry and start is one of those systems where you never have to take the key out of your pocket or purse. As long as the key is on your person, you can unlock the car by pressing the small black button on the door handle. Once behind the wheel, you step on the brake (or the clutch on manual transmission cars) and press the Start-Stop button on the dash. This system is standard even on the base model ..."



If it has the same type of exhaust sound as the stock Infiniti G35/FX or Nissan 350z...Droool

soros, i'm confused, how did you go from selling your tc to go to school and planning on slumming it with some econobox like a yaris to pondering buying a nissan altima coupe concept? your story is falling to pieces.

also, at those prices you have a choice. front wheel drive v6 altima coupe, or rwd v6 nissan 350 z. sorry, but the z has my vote. let the posers drive the front wheel drive v6 altima coupe.
