2015 q60?

So I've thinking about what the new Infiniti Q60 would look like, I've managed to snag a couple of pics I found on the internet of what it might look like. I'm interested in what everyone thinks of these, do you like any of these three?

The first one I found looks just like a Q50 with just 2 doors, it's just a rendering of it. I like the front grill of it and design, its different from the G35 and G37, but I absolutely hate the back of it! I love the taillight curvy design of the G37, its absolutely gorgeous.

The second one I found off of MotorTend's website. Its a rendering of a Super G, 530hp Twin-Turbo V6. Out of all the three here, this is the one I'd love to see go into production! 530hp!!!

This final one looks like a concept.

What else do you guys want to see in the new Q/G coupe? I would love to see a twin turbo added as a preformance option and a lot more torque! I also really want to see Blind Spot detection, heated steering wheel and heated and cooled seats. Anyone want to brainstorm more ideas?

Just me or does it just look like a Genesis coupe?



Also, no way in hell it will have a V6TT 530hp model.

To be honest, I think it's the other way around because the Genesis coupe looks like a G37, and didn't the G come out before the Genesis? Infiniti is just designing it the way it styles every car. Maybe 530hp is a bit too far, but if Infiniti really wants the G to compete with the BMW M and other models, they should at least be pushing 400hp on their IPL model. I feel like the IPL was a huge fail because it just had 18 extra ponies, am I right?

And red seats, and special this, and that.


They should turbo the IPL models and not turbo the stock:sport models. Seem sensible?

G37 and Genesis coupe were released 1 year apart. Typically a car design take 4-5 years. So no the Genesis was not based off the G37.

The Q60 is going to have the same tired-ass engine as the G coupe. It will not be boosted or anything to compete with real performance cars.

Of course they could, but it would never sell and it would take shine away from the GT-R. Base IPL sells for 51k. Make it 500hp, going to add atleast another 15k. MSRP for 66k? That is M3 and C63 AMG money. No one would ever buy that. Bascially Nissan screwed themselves by making a budget friendly supercar.

Infiniti's best bet would be to partner up with a major performance company like Stillen or GTM, like Ford does with Roush. Have Stillen/GTM sell the car with FI kit installed but retain factory warranty. 400-420hp Q60. Still around 60k-65k sadly.

Whys the coupes get worse every year? I think the sedans having been getting progressively better designs. The coupes went downhill after the g35.

gtrs go for over $100k and limited. even at $60k for a turbo ipl the range is far enough that it shouldn't affect those that are interested in a gtr. jus keep the hp at like 400hp or something
