Nope, they're just teasing at this point. It's due to be unveiled at the Detroit show on Jan 14th.

Also, get ready for new naming (which has nothing to do with engine sizing):

... and it looks like you can kiss your steering feeling goodbye:

Read that article on "steer by wire" wow, sounds like its one step away from getting in the car, saying your destination, and sitting back mindless while your vehicle takes you to your destination. (Kill me now)

I know, but the average driver has no clue how anything works on their cars, and it's cheaper for manufacturers to use electronic over hydraulic, plus no power loss. It's a win win for car manufacturers, a lose lose for those of us who actually enjoy driving and know the ins and outs of what we buy.

It's already here.

Google actually has that in testing right now. They recently passed legislation in CA for them to be able to 'drive' driver-less cars out on our public roads along with everybody else.

Just like the Nissan line has taken it's design cues from the Maxima, I think the Infiniti line will resemble the current M with LE Concept touches. I actually don't like it and think my G35 will be my last Infiniti.

That rendering looks terrible. It almost looks like they tried throwing a widebody on it from the get go.
