Re: Infiniti's new M45 = future G35c design direction!

Nice interior - this car reflects a little bit of what I dreamed a car would look like in 1980 when the drawings in car and driver started looking pretty wild. Remember the concepts of the trans am or corvette? The interior is deco almost and the black chrome white thing is odd but with a better leather color could be awesome.

And it looks like a G with a different but not better front end.

I love it

Overall, I like it. But it does not look as good as the original FUGA (especially the rear).

Interior = A+
Front 3/4 = A
Side profile = A-
Rear 3/4 = C+

Overall = borderline B+/A-

I dont really like the style of wheel they chose, for some reason the split spoke design doesnt do it for me.

The rear of the FUGA looked WAY better, especially with the integrated exhaust tips into the bumper. Also, it seems like this car sits higher, and has a more narrow stance. Not as aggressive as the concept FUGA.

Overall though, its still probably going to be the tops in its class.

I dunno, lux. First off, those are the sharpest/clearest pics I've seen in a posting---how'd you do that?

Second, I kinda think it's a nice interior but with that flat-ish dash, it does look either a little truck-y or SUV-ish to me.

Finally, I do think there's an awful lot good to say about the current G interior---it does have a forward lunge and modern look to it. There are, however, quite a few things that could be made better and I'm certain that Nissan/Infiniti was listening when they asked the questions and got the answers from their owner surveys and group sessions.

Product cycles being what they are, we'll see what the "new" interior looks like whenever it finally comes out.

As far as I'm concerned, for a first effort in a sport coupe and sport sedan with rear wheel drive, I think Infiniti scored a mega-touchdown. All I gotta do is look at the sales figures to prove that one.

If you think about it...the G35 is more a sport sedan and sports coupe. That interior doesn't seem sporty.

Sporty cars kind of make it so that the driver is separated from the passenger...like somethings in the middle...but smoothly.

That interior is that of a pretty big size luxury (not sport) sedan. In my opinion.

I personally like it but not for a G35 sports coupe. I'll stick with the current interior

The front bumper and hood look a lot like the G
