Sell Well, as people will think it's a Lexus, like the Maxima and Altima.

Depends. Since the current M45 has sold maybe 4 cars in a year, selling 8 cars is DOUBLING SALES!

Poorly, as people will they it's the new BMW M 4.5, between the awesome M3 and M5 and not an Infinity.

How many VQ engines do they make? Heck, how many stretched 350Z platforms do they make?

I hate the taillight design on the M45, but I think the front-end is very nice.

.Even with the added hp Infiniti will be up against Lexus proven track record and great resale values. With hybrid motor to follow in the GS performance and mpg will tilt towards Lexus
Competition is a good thing, BMW will feel the pinch.

I won't vote on this poll until all the details and specs are out and after I've seen both cars in person.
I thought they botched the design of the new GS & I don't like the changes made from the Fuga concept for the M45 neither, but still the M45 looks better inside & out, but the GS will probably be technologically superior with the hybrid option.

hmm, why was my poll altered ?? What does seeing specs have to do with visual attractiveness ?? My question was which car is MORE attractive-looking from the pics we have seen ? I did not ask which one would you buy, which would then raise the question of specs and details. I think pretty much everyone could make up their mind on which car they think is better looking from the pictures, unless of course they are blind.

wow, in only 20 minutes all of a sudden 26 people just happened to decide to vote for the new GS instead of the M45... hmmmm, seems like some vote tampering going on if you ask me
I guess those who though there should be a 3rd option on my poll, also thought that the M45 was competing too closely with the GS4. Sad that people can't express themselves freely on this board without the ClubLexus Police tampering with everything

WOW, now suddenly Infiniti is now spelled "Infinity" and the 11 posted votes for the M45 magically went down to 6. You moderators are SICK. What's the matter, can't stand the competition ? I've lost all faith in this board !

FYI people, the moderators on this board manipulate the votes to look a certain way.

As far as vote tampering.... I'm not sure that's whats going on here. Why is it so suspicious that in 20 minutes 26 people viewed this thread and voted for the GS? This is Lexus board, you should expect a little bit of bias for a Lexus car. I cannot speak for the amount of votes for the M45 going from 11 to 6 as this is the first time I have seen the poll, but my guess is that 5 people that voted for the M45 sent a message to a moderator asking to change their vote to the 3rd option. And why is the 3rd option a bad thing?

I did NOT change the spelling of Infiniti.
I did NOT tamper with the votes, there have been over 200 views of this thread and this IS a Lexus forum (if you haven't noticed) so there might just be a teeny bit of bias to our membership. You can

How can somebody decide to buy a car when they havent even seen a review. Ridicoulous.
Nissan was "special" when they had the 3.5L VQ, now Acura has a 3.5L. IMO the 3.2L TL is better than the 3.5L in stock form at least.
Lexus needs a 3.5L and a super handling AWD unit too. Cant get behind the competition now.

I didn't think your question on this poll is all that clear to begin with, being "attractive" doesn't necessary mean good looking alone, but can be used to describe the total package as a whole.
I've said on my above post very clearly that I thought the new M45 looks better than the new GS inside & out, so at no time did I feel I'm not totally free to express my opinions in this forum.
