I don't want an IS coupe just to look like an IS sedan with only 2 doors. They should differentiate them more, like the Infiniti sedan & coupe.

granted these are photoshopped images but this is not exactly a rational response. for instance, take the E43 BMWs for instance the coupe and convertible as well as the B6 Audi coupe and convertible...both very closely resemble their sedan counter parts. whereas your example of the G35 and G37...think about it, they are 2 completely different models built on a similar frame...they no longer even share motors. simply because one japanese company does things a certain way doesnt mean another will follow suit.

on another note, hopefully when lexus does decide to make a new coupe and/or convertible it wont be a complete aesthetic and performance disappointment like the SC.

Althought its photoshop, it looks very nice in my opinion, especially the coupe. If they were to make this for real, I would imagine it to look a little different then the sedan like others have mentioned.

HAHA....I couldn't resist!

Thanks for asking...yes it's in the shop getting fixed - probably at least 3 weeks before I get it back? In the meantime I'm driving the hell out of the Maxima. It's a pretty nice car.
