Those pipes are huge for stock exhaust! I am not an import fan, but I totally respect this car. Too bad the price will be stratospheric (expect dealer ADM's in the $50,000 range).

Thinking "G35 coupe on steroids" but, not at all bad looking based on what can be seen. Like it better now that they "softened" the looks a bit compared to the GT-R concept.

Nice basic shape, but I think it needs a little more design work.
Something looks odd with the "green-house" shape.

I agree. Either the 1/4 window rear slope not matching the roofline is throwing off my eye, or there's a kink of some sort in the roofline itself...
