Thanks infinitimichell for stopping by and posting the video.
Overall, I like the car's interior very much (especially the steering wheel). Overall, a very modern, driver's cockpit that easily beats the one in the BMW 3 series.
Exterior looks are a mixed bag. I like the evolutionary design implemented here, but the front end doesn't remind me of the previous G35. Rather, it looks like it's taken on shapes and cues from the M35/45 (another great looking car) and perhaps even the Altima/Maxima...
Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to seeing the car in person and checking out the specs. I'm certain that the car's performance will be phenomenal. I also hope that Infinti is rating their horsepower figures under the new SAE-certified regulations (to my knowledge, all of their refreshed/redesigned cars are.)
Overall, good things from Infiniti. It's just too bad that the GT-R won't get Infiniti designation here. The brand could have really used a halo car.

Raheel,
One of my friends has TL, and the voice system is really a gimick.
He uses it, but he usually has to repeat things....especially the bluetooth phone functions!!!

Also I am already surprised this car has so many features and more than the M35, and your wanting it to have even more things than the M, maybe the M will get the features first and than pass on in a couple years, but I dont see it happening anytime soon

I understand that many of you think that these features are a bit excessive. That's why they are usually options. It's up to the buyer to decide how they want to equip the car. To each is own.
