I guess an Acura is just another honda, a Lexus is just another toyota...please do explain how an Infiniti, Acura or Lexus isnt a luxury car? Is it the lack of features and higher price tag?

If you owned an I35 then it would be just like driving a Maxima. I wouldn't buy a FWD car ever again

So, if I bought the car over in Japan and then brought it over here, I would have to call it an Infiniti G35?

What's the difference between the 2 cars? Huh? Right hand drive vs. Left hand drive? and badging? Right? ITS STILL THE SAME FREAKING CAR MADE IN THE SAME FREAKING PLANT that the Skyline is made right? They brought it to the U.S. but they had to make it left hand drive because of the driving laws in America. Like someone else stated, is it not stamped Nissan all over our cars? So, is it truly an Infiniti? or is it a Nissan that has been incorrectly badged an Infiniti? If it REALLY was an Infiniti, then all the parts would be stamped out with little Infiniti marks instead of Nissan marks.

You go ahead and believe what you want, believe that you got a more luxiorious car than what the Skyline is. Believe that because you paid more for the Infiniti name that it is an Infiniti.

What about RUF? Isn't that still a Porsche. Isn't it true that the RUF family buys Porsche and "RENAMES" them a RUF. In reality, who the hell made the car? Porsche? If RUF "RENAMES or REBADGES" those cars, is that like Infiniti? So would the car buyer be in the wrong or be stupid if he put the "Porsche" emblems back on his car? or is it now a "RUF" for time indefinite?

Go ahead and deny it.

So what if they are luxury cars. In Japan they are still luxury cars, just badged for what they really are... Honda, Toyota, Nissan.

If you brought the skyline over to here, then it would be called a Skyline simple because it was built to skyline specifications. Whether it be RHD or LHD or even down to the nuts and bolts. The specifications for a Skyline call for LHD and Skyline badging. The G35 specs called for RHD and G35 badges, now if the G35 specs called for RHD and Skyline badging, then there is not doubt in my mind it should be called a Skyline. No one has denied the car as a nissan nor has anyone aurged it was a better car except you and hybrid.

As for the RUF Porsche thing, who does the rebadging? Is it the buyer that change the Porsche to RUF or is it RUF that sells the Porsche under their name? It's the same thing with Nissan and Infiniti, even though they are the same company. And agian as you heard from my above arugements, RUF calls for their badging before it hits the market.

Sorry, I have to disagree.
I know that Honda Motors does make nicer cars, called acura. I know Toyota does make nicer cars, called Lexus. Just like i know nissan makes nicer cars, called infiniti.

Owning a nicer item(even if made by the same people) does have prestiege.
There are different levels or perstiege and quality made by the same company all the time. Cigars, Cars, the lists are endless.

I know i didnt fall for a gimmick, i.e. an M35 is defenitly more prestigious then a maxima, etc.

What do you care what others think? It`s your car, and the only one you have to please is..Ta Daa! yourself!
I think it devalues the Infiniti name, and I won`t do it to my car, but I would not presume to tell you what to do to your car.

Leave the infiniti logo and make it an Infiniti Skyline. That's a much better name than G35.
