Might Say Bye To My Solara.

that g35 looks amaaazing. other pics i have seen make it look too much like the current generation. i like the lower profile in the front, it's almost bmw-like.

i would go for the is350 as well, but remember the backseat doesn't fit me and i'm 5'3

They're sideview cams, there are monitors on the dash.

Silly me...shoulda read the linked page...

OK...digital camera's for sideview mirrors?? That sounds cool, but also sounds like an accident waiting to happen. People are already too lazy to turn their heads to look behind them, what do they think will happen if you put these on a car. I dunno...hopefully they would at least put a wide angle lese on the cameras.

from what i read, the 07 g35 wont have those camera mirrors. it also wont have the led headlights or speakers in the head rests. the muscular fenders and body lines are a good representation of how it should look.

That car will definatley be the replacement for my Solara- hopefully my Solara lasts until 09, so that I dont have to buy a first model year vehicle. Looks HOT. I hope the production vehicle has the full glass roof that is shown on the concept vehicle.

There was some short talk about it in the Road and Track mag for March. I dont see it coming out for at least another 3 or 4 years if Toyota is thinking about it. Although if they do its gonna rock the 3.5L for the base model which is the same engine as the IS350. I hear that there are gonna be a bunch of aftermarket mods for both the 3.5L and the 2.5L. Id look into the IS350 if you want something kindof like a supra. Also nissan is coming out with a V8 for the Z and that should be out in a year or so. Im not sure if the G35 will also get that option or not. As far as the mustang goes, get on that waiting list now if you ever hope to own one.
