That's like the FX50 grill.

 

2010 fascia changes
New Base model front fascia with new headlight design and separated (from headlights) fog lights
New Sport model front fascia with integrated fog lights and “blacked out” sport headlights


That picture looks like the current model w/a different grille.

 

Link, I think your friend is messing with you... it is too ugly.
That, or I should start considering the 09 again

 

hey buddy, didn't mean to offend at all. When I bought my '06 G35 sedan, I was pretty upset when the '07 release fixed a number of the complaints I had with my ‘06. Since the ’07 release, I watched and waited for the improvements and redesigns and pounced on the '09 G37 b/c it actually has everything i wanted. If the 2010 comes out, that's fine - I waited four years for my '09 G37. My friend who picked up the '08 G35 was pissed but more so b/c he didn't do his do diligence to research what would be new for the next year. I did read up on the rumored 2010 updates, but when you factor in the government kick back on sales tax and the awesome trade in I got for my ’06 … my '09 has more deals than the 2010 will ever have to offer (unless uncle sam gives more freebies - which is awesome for everyone!)

Anyway, thx for reading if you read all the way through - and no offense to any 08 G35 driver, a Gdriver is a GdriveR!

 

That looks like pretzel sticks stuck in there. Horrible.

 

RJ: How do U find the performance of the 7 speed Auto?? I've read here that there are some quirks with the tranny? True?

 

Could Not AGREE More. Man that's ugly. I think I've seen that type grille on the new FX or a was it a 2009 Nissan Murano. Please Infiniti DON'T Do That !!!! Take a hint from FORD of all places, Look at the New Taurus. That is a going to be a new "Bully" on the Block.....

 

No offense take. Enjoy your G. I'll be waitng for the price to come down(more bargining), before I even think of getting the 2010.

 

On Friday, we will see what the 2010 M looks like, if it has the FX50 grill, then for sure the 2010 G will have the same. I am very skeptical about the pic link posted

 

My major complaint is when I am slowing down to a stop light, there is a weird down-shift (while in any mode D,DS,M) between 2 to 1. I know there is a TSB for this. I find that the car is smoother when I am controlling the shifting in M mode, in D there are too many gears and in DS it will hold the gear until it bounces off of the redline! Also between 4 to 3, the down-shift is hard if 3rd gear will enter above 3500rpm.

Quirks, yep... might be TSB time at the next oil change, not sure why I am concerned with losing a few MPG (hearsay from other forum members)

 

I like the new additions to the Journey package, but that might also hike the price. I don't need a car now but I would like one by the end of spring in 2010 so it'll be interesting to see if Infiniti will offer great incentives to buyers choosing a leftover '09 over a '10 model.

 

with acura and lexus getting uglier with every refresh, i wouldn't be surprised to see Infiniti follow suit and mangle the G sedan

 

they wouldn't release any pictures to let corporate give out. trust me i would know

 

if i knew my way around photoshop i would have already posted this lol...

 

What happened to the signature katana grill? that Infiniti's are known for. Very disappointing
