Default Infiniti unveils the 2005 M45 on April 8th?

Is Infiniti going to unveil the 2005 M45 at the NY autoshow on April 8th? The Infiniti website says they will unveil a new sedan on April 8th. Does anyone know of any infiniti chat room?

If that Fuga concept they've been showing is indeed the next M45, it should be a pretty nice car.

Well, it's a lot nicer than anything the big L has come out with in about 7 years

If that car comes out.. you'll see me seriously looking into converting over because I think it's stunning compared to what else is being offered at this moment.

Egads dude. People still can't spell Infinity correct. Give it a rest. I'll buy a 2005 M45 in 2007 when it will be worth 10k b/c of it's resale.

Just heard Lexus will be showing a concept of their IS 330 replacement.

That may not be the case at all. People said that about the G35 when it came out, but is now predicted to be among the best in holding it's value by different sources. If the car is a hit in the market, it's resale value will be solid. Resale values do vary for different models within the same brand depending on how well each model is received. Not all Infiniti cars will be a dud like the current Q45.

I remember people arguing on this board a year ago how MB resale values were the best (based on the past) & are now eating their words.

I agree, I would love to see that.

Especially if they stick with the current 4.5 liter V-8, 340HP and 333ft-lb of torque. Imagine that behind a close ratio 6spd.


Damn, I might jump ship too, but still wouldn't sell the SC..

Looks like the 2005 M45, the new Acura RL(300hp rumored), and the new IS330 will be at the NY autoshow. I can't wait!! Here is a Nissan/Infiniti website from freshalloy. http://forums.freshalloy.com/ubbthre...reads.php?Cat=
