There's no point in caring until there's something official.

I really hope they keep the size that it is now, and really think about bringing their Q back.  No point making the M the flagship, I think they'll lose a lot of buyers considering as a flagship its only comparable to the likes of the Lexus GS, BMW 5 Series, etc....

I see your point but I don't think they will ever bring the Q back.

I think a car like the Q is necessary for the evolution on Infiniti as a brand.  A new Q is in orner, if it wants to challenge Lexus, BMW and Mercedes, or else it will stagnate like Acura.

One of the comments compared that photo to an Altima with different lights.  I disagree.  It looks more like a late model Camry.  Pretty plain.

New Q should be a luxo saloon version of the GT-R.

And if they put the VK50VHR in it like they're talking about, it'll be a waste. Sad
