Must say.. I'm still kind of torn on the design. Not loving it....

Agreed.. it's kind of sad to see them almost taking steps backwards and making the cars overlap as they used to (infiniti just being rebranded nissans); except now it's a wholly different car (infiniti), that LOOKS the same as the car that costs 2/3rds (nissan)..

I am not seeing any buttons for suspension control much to my dismay, but hopefully they are in there somewhere...
I'm wondering if the M56 shown is a sport model; I am guessing so. It has a different front lower air-dam configuration along w/ foglight changes. I wonder if it's specific to the sport package or the M56 itself. I am also disappointed to see the loss of the old quad exhaust. I would have like to seen that as part of the sport package or at least standard equipment on the M56...

Also, no more fender mounted side marker/turn signal lights.. kind of disappointing. Assuming they are replaced with some sort of mirror-signal. The car is looking less and less sporty as I analyze it. The only 'sporty' trait is the one I'm not fond of.. it looks like the car is 90% hood (before the A pillar) and 10% car. No more signature dual ring LED tails either. I loved those.. mesmerizing.

I'm not sure what Infiniti's doing. I'm not so sure they know, either. Lets hope this is "what the masses want" because it appears they are losing their enthusiast following and going for a more toned-down look.... ala Lexus.

* PS: I know it's pre-production, but I hope they finish up those ugly speaker covers. I can't imagine they are going to production like that. Both front and rear covers look AWFUL.

Yup...I didn't care for the 370z when pics surfaced but now I'm in love with them. If I didn't need a backseat, that would be my next purchase.

This thing has gotten my attention. The V-8 will have 420hp and the V-6 327hp. Seven-speed tranny. Maybe ... just maybe ... they'll have the good sense to use those cogs to make it cruise at something below 3,000rpm at 60. I mean, calm that thing down, Infiniti! Maybe it'll even get decent mileage on the road if they do.

Unlike Oz, I'm glad to see the loss of things like the quad pipes (boy racer!) and hokey stuff like side markers (Euro wannabes). And thank God, the tail lights aren't comically huge things crawling up the trunklid like on my old '06. The car is actually beginning to look classy and grown up and maybe even worth the big price tag.

Just wish it wasn't going to be April before they debut. I'd consider trading the Lex for one if I could give it a drive today (it's been 2 years and the itch has set in). And I actually think I'd give the V-6 a serious look this time. 327hp and direct injection, coupled with a 7-spd might just make it a pretty quick car.

Bring it on!

Was it the boy racer or the Eurowannabe in you that made you say that?

I'm not feeling it in the looks department to be honest.  The engine sounds great though.
