just a few facts...

G35 is rear wheel drive
altima coupe is front wheel

engine in the g35 is more powerful 298 vs 270 hp.. torque i dunno.

looks yes it does resemble the g35 *sigh* and if the g looks great i understand why nissan would mimic it in the altima (their best selling car)

the new g35 sedan has a more powerful engine then the altima coupe
the new g37 has a much more powerful engine then the altima coupe.

now all that being said... the altima coupe may weigh less (which is a plus)
but it'll still be FWD. me personally i prefer FWD... i cant drive RWD to save my life... but im learning.

will it steal sales from the G coupe line... maybe 1 or 2... but not many. its a different beast... just like the 1 series is to bimmers.

ppp
