French variation on 350Z/Infinity coupe?

Quite pretty, I hope not much changes. And it’s not the french version of the 350Z or the G37, it’s more related to the Altima coupe, which is front wheel drive and is only related to the 350Z by the engine. Only the interior wouldn’t make it, but if it did, I’ll be quite interested to see how it will drive.

Nothing particularly new or interesting about it. It looks boring and cheap to be honest. Normally the french come up with far out designs that are in some way cool. Renault should shelve this one.

wow renault really tone down their concept vehicles…seems almost production ready(exterior)

One other thing - it reminds me of a Mitsu Ecclipse more than anything.

Looks mostly like the late, completely un-lamented Mercury Cougar.

Racy. Obviously the production version won’t look anything like that.

I really think it looks good, and usually, I’m not a big fan of Reanult’s styling. As for the engines, I don’t believe about the smaller gas engine. I’tll p+robably have a 2.0l turbo, low pressure blower@ around 180hp, then a 2l turbodiesel, around the same power, and a couple of V6’s, one variant of the Nissan 3.5l engine and a new diiesel V6, on which there aren’t many details floating around.

Not bad, but nothing special. They should keep the interior. Nothing there that can’t be produced.

Definately seein a lot of Nissan 300ZX in there.

The back looks like that Acura concept car from a few months back

well i just hope that the coupe ends up looking MUCH MUCH better than the 4 door version

I like it

You guys sure can b*tch about everything.

I think the cars pretty beautiful. Nothing that’s extremely radical, but if put into production without any major changes, it would be very handsome and sleek looking. What they do need to do though is add more detail to the body, because albeit being a sleek car, it doesn’t have any major distinctive features aside from the front grill. As you look toward the back, it seems to become very plain.

The interiors well finished too, although the floorpan is very flat, and that would probably create a seating problem for the front passenger.

I don’t see how it looks cheap. What I believe your pointing at is the slight change in angle right before most body panels fit together- like in the front, and bottom doorsill. This highlights the gaps, and most cars that have that slight flux in angle are associated with being cheap, when you walk up to them. I can’t assure you, but I think the body panels fit together very well. Unfortunately that may not be projected through the end concept though.
But there’s too more things; the gap in between the front hood and windshield, and the plastic window sill line. That’s probably what makes it look cheap to you, Ricardohead.

As for the design, it’s personal taste, I wouldn’t buy it because coupes aren’t very versatile (generally speaking), but I think it looks good.

Renault 350Z…cool though

A (10 year old) Mitsubishi Eclipse with a (12 year old) Fiat Coupe front end…

I’ll Pass!

Don’t like the overhangs, would be a great update to the Peugeot 407 coupe.

Why do they make these things? i guarantee there wont be anything off that on the production car.

I’m with most of you—it somehow manages to look old, despite the fact that it’s a brand new design. As Deanster said—”nothing special”.

Looks racy, yeah…

I’m just wondering:
Wow! The 1.6 version must be hot!!

im sorry, but i see the new 3 series coupe in the back end of this car which in retrospect ain’t all that bad, but thats just me

BRING IT TO PRODUCTION.

THE BACK PART OF IT SHAPE LIKE A AUSTIN MARTIN.
