Interesting how they say "performance oriented".

exactly. and I promise you there are no other "performance oriented" cars other than the gtr scheduled for release. atleast not in an "untapped customer segment"

Nissan Azeal Concept - RSportsCars.com

The Nissan Azael looks a lot like the 07 Sentra. I'm betting the new Sentra SE-R will draw a lot of influence from that model. Hopefully they implement the turbo, and aim it at the dodge SR-T 4.

I don't know if the altima can really be considered a high performance car, even in a coupe form. I also don't think that a model derived from a current model can be labelled as 'uniquiely designed'. But hey, I reserve the right to be wrong.

Nissan didnt call it a high performance car. they called it a "performance oriented car" big difference there.

i promise the car they are talking about is an Altima coupe

I was at the dealership yesterday, and they are all talking about the new Altima coupe coming out, and they are all really excited about it. It's just nice to hear it from the Dealer's mouth!

dbthump · #13 (**permalink**) 11-09-2006, 02:57 PM

I can't believe you've got an '07. Super nice looking photo album. You need some wheels though; that'd look sick! Anytime soon?

gtcompscientist · #14 (**permalink**) 11-09-2006, 03:08 PM

Thanks for the compliment! I'll probably get some new wheels (and nicer rubber!) within the next few months. Just depends on when I find something that I like. Lucky for me my brother is the manager at an NTB, so I can probably get a really nice deal! The pictures don't do the car justice now though. Just got it back last night from the dealership with some nice new tint on the windows!
I'll post some more pictures sometime soon to show off the tint, and I still have to remember to take a dang picture of the rear-view camera in use!

What is NTB?
