In all honesty, I don't see what the issue is. Once the car has been released and for sale sitting on the lots, you'll be able to test drive all you want. I understand why Infiniti wouldn't allow test drives on the new G considering that they are not the dealer's cars and it has not been officially released. Just my opinion though.Originally Posted by John105
Is that just yet another minus for Infiniti? You can't know the price, and you also can't test drive the car? Sorry for this language, but what the ****? With those two factors, you know what they can do with their car. What kind of geniuses are they to cover it up? What poor marketing imho. I had originally been interested in a G35S 6MT. When you were a college kid, did you ever really want to go out with a gal, and once you found out more about her, decide that no matter how good she looks, she's not worth the effort? That's what I'm feeling about the G35 now, it's just plain weird the way the car's being handled.

It was stated Loooong ago that November was the release date.
IMO, anything before that is gravey.

That is what I was hearing also that dealers had no choice. Like I mention before ask 10 dealers the same question and you'll get 10 different answers.Originally Posted by GoofyG28
Weird. Several dealerships have told me otherwise. That's why you see so many Journeys in their first batches.
I had to tell the salesman that these unveiling cars were production cars that the dealers had the option to buy. He said that was incorrect that these cars had to go back to infiniti. I had to explain to him that it didn't make sense to send back hundreds of cars back to Japan. Then he finally asked his Sales manager who confirmed I was right.

I don't know why you think this is a bid deal .... the car is not yet "officially" released - it will be released in the US in November.
That you are getting to see the car now (and in some cases even test drive) is just a bonus - you are not entitled to anything right now.
And btw, the comparison to some college girl is totally absurd - you "BUY" a car - you NEVER EVER buy a girl
