To each their own. I just don't like it.

A looooooooooong time ago, we parted ways. I see my name still rings bells over there , to think grown men fuss about me on another forum.

haha Actually, I havent heard anything about you, although I should ask around now...lol j/k What forums were you on over there?

The reason I asked is that someone posted a very similar ("new g35 rendering") thread as you did here and I saw the same pics.

Thumbs down Pretty lame

Nobody ever asked Nissan for a smaller, cheaper M. But that's, apparently, what we're going to get.

Even though the design is showing its age, Infiniti just recently "got it right" when it comes to the G35. The interior, while not outstanding, is competitive. The VQ could probably stand an overhaul or replacement - especially due to the relatively poor fuel economy when compared to the competetion - but is still a respectable powerplant. And the sedan finally got LEDs.

Now we have to start all over again with the cost-cutting appointments and further-Nissanized interior?

It's clear, if these renderings do represent the next G, that Infinti doesn't want my business.

I don't see pictures of the interior? Also - when you say LEDs do you mean taillights? If so, the G35 sedan had always had LED taillights.

Regardless - the fact that these renderings are still using OEM '05 wheels leads me to believe they're probably inacurate shops.

Those are not OEM 05 wheels, take a closer look. There are not interior pics because Infiniti/Nissan has not relesaed anything official (pics, car shows, press conff. etc) for the sedan. Everything we see and hear is more or less speculation until proved otherwise imo.
