Great reviews Mike.....I actually felt like I was sitting beside you in those cars. Quite detailed as you painted us a vivid picture, but hey what else should we expect. As for the M6, I've been a fan of that car in any variant and the M just makes it even more amazing. Not quite sure what Infiniti is doing over there but I wish them well. I'd be more inclined to buy one of Hyundai's new offerings than these new cars that Infiniti is giving us.

Not enough straight lines and way too curvy.
A center stack design more like that in the new Sonata would have been better.
.....so I go inside and there is a 3.8 Genesis coupe with NAV (didn't even know they had it) inside. I was STUNNED at how I fit inside this car, just PERFECT. The seats were great with a cheap bit. The power seat moved front/rear and there is a manual control for the seat back. Cheap....the interior center console looks like the same awful crap in the old G35. What were they thinking? That is when copying goes back, when you copy stuff not realizing NO ONE LIKED IT. Surprisingly the dash had good plastics and honestly it was a great place to sit in.
Despite the cheaper materials, prefer how the center stack design looks in the coupe than the center stack in the Genesis sedan.

i love curvy stack design of genesis. it gives me a peaceful, serene vibe. it suits the car IMO. wish they didn't use the silver plastic though. brushed aluminum would've been great. but that silver plastic is used on every hyundais except equus. i'm just not a big fan of a silver. i guess i got sick of it. maybe they should've gone with more darker plastic like lexus or honda.

Excellent reviews! I especially liked the ones about the BMW M6 and the Audi S6, but the dreams of S6 were immediately crushed about point two seconds after looking at the RS6...
As pointed out earlier, for the price of an S6 you can get an AMG E63. I like the V10 lambo engine and AWD of the S6, but for the same price as an E63! Please, I'll pass that up everyday and twice on Sunday and walk away with the E63 everytime.
Note to Audi: Please bring the RS6 and the RS6 Avant to our shores immediately, please (priced right off course)!
