I wasn't a fan of the old one but this new one is just a mess.

I had a delightful lunch the other day, then saw one of these and left it all on the side of the road...

The first one was ugly but it grew onto me a bit.

The second one makes me want to punch a baby.

Why a baby? Punch an X6 instead

The whole front end is a buck-tooth mutant catfish

Old one is much better looking.

Pretty ugly car. Looks like Nissan designers took evolution in the wrong direction and drew inspiration from an old Hyundai Tiburon.

Cargo rooms looks even smaller. Has anyone every seen how little room there is in such a big car? It's pretty shameful.

I think Infiniti could have made the new car look angry and aggressive without getting so cartoony with the front. The interior is a slam-dunk over the old car.
