$60k wouldn't be bad given the only real competition would be the Cayman S which stickers for at least $70k with some options.

That looks great. With the M3 engine it will be pretty fast. Sign me up.

Too heavy, the front is still messed up, and the wheels could be better. I do like the tail though.


VERDICT: I'll Pass.

The way I see that car is: An even more luxurious G35 Coupe. Tweaked with HP and a new styling curve.


Bottom line: getting overweight, questionable but popular styling (i don't dig), all about the badge in front, and why not just get a Cayman?

Mixed emotions but i still like the old convertable better. That front end sucks!
