So I just a read an article about the Lexus F-line http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/12/...o-rival-amg-m/.
So BMW has the M
Audi has the S
Mercedes has AMG
Cadillac has the V
Lexus will have the F
Infiniti will have _______?

I think its time we have a performance series!

 

Gtr

 

+1 gtr

 

Incorrect. The GT-R is a single model, not a line. Nissan/Infiniti don't have anything comparable.

 

lexus call it the F line? um.. i dont know, but doesnt sound all that great.. i mean, BMW M & Merc AMG sounds so sexy and obviously has the history. nontheless, Lexus F-line or whatever they call it will be have some beasts!!
IS500 or IS-F with 400+ hp, now THAT sounds sexy. however, lexus need to come out with a manual trans.. when they do, it may be time to upgrade!

 

Gtr Hello.

 

Are you guys serious?

Nismo.

 

but nismo is for Nissan. what about Infiniti? Toyota has TRD as its high performance dep.
GT-R is just a model..
also, when i was reading through leftlane news, couple things intrigued me (sorry a lil off topic).

1. 07 Z gets the new engine (same as the 07 G35 sedan). according to the news, by 09 they will have a redesigned Z with "considerably" more performance than today's model. i wonder how that will turn out and if the 08G35 will get that "considerably" more power/performance since that will be the all new redsigned model. however, i would think the 08 prob will just get the same engine as the 07 sedan with 306hp.
2. they have a honda coupe concept, looks kinda interesting and should give the "new" altima coupe a run for its money!! of course, not the class i'll be considering but still kinda interesting to look at!

 

they should start a new line, all cars 50K and up.

At least 350 HP, suv or car.

Something related to the history on infiniti.

 

I dont get why so many people here are claiming GT-R...

It will carry a Nissan badge after all, so it isnt like its representing an Infiniti.

I would like to see a infinity g3 maybe like the amg 55 opposed to a 500

 

They should come out with an 'R' line

G35R
M45R

I think that sounds good

 

It will be interesting to see if Nissan's decision to badge the GTR as a Nissan is a mistake. To a large percentage of car buyers the badge is almost as important as the car. The Porsche brand for example carries at least a $10K premium. I wonder how many people will be willing to pay $80K for ths GTR with the Nissan badge. The $80K price comes from the January issue of C&D.

 

I know....the Datsun line!
