Infiniti should just bow out gracefully. With so many discontinued models such as the G20, I35, M30, J30 and QX4 why are they still in the luxury market? With the latest discontinued model the Q45 they have no chance at all. Lexus has released the LS 460 and soon to be LS 600h L. Infiniti is lefted far behind...

I was thinking the same thing. The brush stroke looks like a pretty nice looking coupe or sports car if you ask me. At first I was going to say G35 Coupe, but maybe it could be the M Coupe, or maybe a new sports car all together. I definitely don't see 4-doors or SUV from that brush stroke image. The B Pillar definitely looks like a coupe too me.

That means that you get easily excited.
UberNoob that brought a smile to my face at 7:45AM at work, hard to do when I can barely move.
I honestly can't see SUV from the brush stroke. I wonder if I can hire the Infiniti guy who came up with these brush stroke deals to mock up my next tattoo. I've been searching for someone who knows how to write in Chinese calligraphy very well. It'd probably be no bigger than 3in x 4in. But than again, I don't want them end up giving my design to some other guy.

With Lexus coming with the LS 600h L, the LF-A actual concept, the IS-F is coming, etc etc, this is a laughable press release. Possibly one of the 10 worst I've seen. NAIAS, THE BIGGEST AUTO SHOW IN AMERICA is going on now, and they release, in their biggest market
1. A Sketch of a car
2. A brushstroke
Hell even Acura dropped the next NSX concept.
At this point, this brand will have 2 cars, the G35 and M35/45 and 3 SUVs, FX 35/45, QX56 and this thing. The GT-R will be a Nissan.
They said pretty much all top Infiniti mgt left the company instead of moving to Tennessee. I really believe that now.

because the Gs combined tend to outsell the ISs combined? because if at first you dont succeed you should give up?
their using their company philosophies in marketing...

i did not comment on lexus/is sales expectations or what lexus tried to do. nor was i even implying that the is was a failure. i think the IS is a great car, as well as a success, which i assume most here would agree with me on.
what i did say was that the G35s outsold the ISs, even though the G was in its last year and the IS was in its first. that happened to the tune of 61k vs 55k cars sold.
the fact is, infiniti is on to something. thats all im saying. lexus is great, so is infiniti. i think the comments that Trexus made, on that basis, are ignorant.
