WOW close to 70k for M56x! Thats pretty insane... You can buy 2010 LS460awd for this price... This "pseudo flagship" is going to be massive FAIL is you ask me (even though I like the car)...

I love the M. I love Infiniti. I skipped on the current M because the GS had more hp at the time, looked nicer imho, and had better mpg (5 speed vs 6 speed). Now I would say Lexus is clearly on the lower end right now with the current GS. The current top of the line GS v8 can not match the new V8 motor in the M, the interior is nicer on the M, and it has some newer features like AC system that allows you to control the humidity as well as the temp ( amongst a good number of new cool features ).

I know Lexus will respond in a couple of years with a very strong 4GS that will make the new M look and seem dated. And the back and fourth of the competitive auto market will forever continue. In the end the consumer wins

looks very nice and should be a beast with the V8. Exterior redesign looks sharp except the front 3/4 at bumper level. That shot looks very odd/awkward in the press photos I've seen. Has to look better in person from that angle.

IMO ... the GS is MUCH better looking than the M ... the M has an ugly front end.
