  This work is dedicated to the study of the noncommutative Gross-Neveu model.
As it is known, in the canonical Weyl-Moyal approach the model is inconsistent,
basically due to the separation of the amplitudes into planar and nonplanar
parts. We prove that if instead a coherent basis representation is used, the
model becomes renormalizable and free of the aforementioned difficulty. We also
show that, although the coherent states procedure breaks Lorentz symmetry in
odd dimensions, in the Gross-Neveu model this breaking can be kept under
control by assuming the noncommutativity parameters to be small enough. We also
make some remarks on some ordering prescriptions used in the literature.
