Infinit Performance Line

Infiniti is planning on launching a line of performance parts like Benz AMG or BMW's M line. Read this in several mags recently thought I'd share this information. To me it just another way for the dealerships to jack up the price of our cars. Haven't seen anything offered that you can't buy aftermarket. A NISMO exhaust thru the stealership might cost you $5K....

5k is a little bit absurd if you ask me.

For that much, I'd rather go ahead and start piecing together a Vortech Tuner kit or something. How much will they offer for better suspension? 4k for some stances? Give me a break. Good idea... just poorly executed.

Well fine, I apologize for not trying a SEARCH or assuming the information hadn't been posted yet....sorry.
Back to the statement about what Infiniti would like to get for an exhaust system when they can throw it on the window sticker. When I bought my coupe they wanted $1800 for chromed OE wheels, their cost was $50 each and they retail at most wheel shops for $100 each. Considering the retail of a HKS system at $1400 why does $5K sound high? We know it's unreasonable but many buyers don't have a clue what anything costs or how bad dealerships screw them.

A lot of speculation. Will wait to see what is displayed at Pebble beach.

Pretty sure I saw one of these on the road a couple days ago. The body kit looks flattened, like u dropped the car without wheels from 10ft then slapped the wheels on it. Doesn't look too hot..
