400+ hp, might be a cheaper alternative to the IS-F and M3.
I'm not a fan of cars that big though.

it looks like a new maxima with a huge premium ... still better than the acura cars though

I'll pass

It's a luxury car with a huge engine. I like it. But I'd rather have something sporty. All these cars (like the m3 and IS-F) are moving towards luxury with big engine.... I don't like it. I'd rather have an early 2000's M3. They still had the sporty appeal.

Nice looking car... I can't any real faults in the styling.

The profile reminds me of the old Lexus GS series and the Jag XF. I agree that the taillights are Jaguar-esque.
I guess the new thing to have a very gradual slope from the end of the roof to the trunk... not as pronounced as the Porsche Panamera, but it's there.

New Infiniti M for comparison

If you think the new M3 or IS-F aren't sporty, then you obiviously have not driven them yet. Because they are very sporty.

Looks good, but very similar to previous gen. However, I don't think it can be put in the same category as the M3 or IS-F.

It has a 5.6 liter v8 with only 400 bhp. Pretty sad compared to BMW with a 4.0 liter v8 with 420 bhp. Nissan never gets their motors to rev very high, so it's not surprising.



Also it won't offer a manual transmission. So I guess if you want a big lazy motor with an auto tranny and a huge, heavy frame, then you wouldn't want this anyway cuz why not just get an Acura or a lexus, not an infiniti which is obviously a step down from the two. (especially in interior design.)

Also the rear three quarter view they show looks quite similar to a Camry.

Ugggggh! Infiniti...don't ruin the letter M! Get your own letter! LOL

^ seriously ... their cars are excuses and really close to the nissan counterparts minus the g cars as they have a winner there ... but otherwise why would u buy an infinity ...

i am not sure if your joking or being serious. i am very confused atm. but if your saying both those cars are sporty, then i agree. but if your saying they are not, then i all i can say is :dunno:

yeah, seriously! would think that the m3 is a sports car? psshh i wouldnt! its just some sedan with more horsepower. sports car?! yeah right.

Infiniti makes some nice cars. I like the M45, the older Q45s and the old/current G series cars. Also I really like the FX45. I like the M as well :)

Yeah that's true. I like the G37 coupe though :)

The tailights remind me of a jag. Not digging it really. Only a subtle difference (other than size) between the G and the M

It is more interesting than the outgoing model. Nicer looking than the awkward new E-Class. 5-Series needs a redo and the TL is butt ugly. Lexus GS getting old.

Reviewers like the current M, but it has never caught on like it deserved to. I do hope they tilt the awkward horizontal nav controls.

Ehh, I would take an M3 or IS-F in a heartbeat over that, and I'm generally a Nissan fan. It just isn't aggressive enough and far too large.
