so Infiniti simply is able to charge a higher price......supply/demand.

It really is your location, in so-cal I see about 5 coupes for every sedan. But if you check infiniti sales, the last numbers I remember were like 10,000 sedans sold and 5,000 coupes sold. I don't remember how long of a time period that was, but there are twice as many sedans out there than coupes.

If that responce bothered you, you appearently havent seen some of the flaming I have seen on this site...Just having some fun, you will notice I also responded to the actuality of the variation in material costs, and production. And since the sedan outsells the coupue 2/1 your take seems to be inacurate as well.

This is not just an infiniti thing. Look at a 335 coupe price versus a sedan. Then look at a convertable versus a coupe. as the buying pool decreases the price pushes. There are also some typical coupe/conv only adds to put a special touch to the lower production vehicle which also adds to the cost(such as the afore mentioned coupe seats).

Lighten up...have a laugh and dont take yourself or me that serious!

I started a thread asking this same question last year. There is only one right answer. Infiniti asks more for the sedan because people will pay it.

The coupe has a different exhaust system no? I mean, stock it pushes more power, so there is some cost, and coupes just seem to always cost more, (look at audi and others)
