Looks terrible. Soft, femminine, weak shoulder lines, and boutique. They brought back the droopy-butt J30 look that already died a timely death.

and that's not a good thing.
this front quarter angle is an angle Infiniti needs to work on.
the G35 sedan also looks like its *** is cut off from the front quarter angle.
Same with the Lexus GS.
Fastback-style cars don't look good at this angle.

Here's the problem with the shoulderline: Car starts off low, then gets high above the front wheel. Then gets low below the windows. Then gets high above the rear wheel. Then gets low again at the trunk. Something swoopy and performance oriented should start off low and snug up front and gradually rise higher to the rear without a bunch of peaks and valleys. FAIL.
So much for that theory.

First thing I thought again is the Hyundai Azera. Which is not a BAD thing, I actually like the Azera design and think it has good proportions. The Infiniti adds more curves and bulges which kind of work and don't work. Overall I don't find it ugly, which is good and I find it nicer than the current model.

Damn, the M looks good in those pics. The M56 with 429 HP is going to be crazy fast! The FX50S is already quick and weighs 4,575 lbs. I hope they have kept the weight in check though, under 4,000 lbs would be nice.
