nissan: funky / sporty / sexy (z)
infiniti: weird (except G) / who?

I just ran a devil advocate, and you got so worked up about this.
Look, I explained everything on my previous post already. Design might be similar from one car maker to another. You don't have to love the car because it's a Ford, and hate it because it's a Toyota.
Tell me what's conservative about Lexus's design? I only see ES and LS being conservative designs. You probably think those people who gave Lexus number 1 luxury brand for 11 year straight are wrong.

Edit: I personally think that this car looks fine. Not really great. You don't really want to make the front goes up that high when you use that grill. The rest of the car is a bit boring. Headlight looks very generic and dated. What I like the most about this car is interior. It looks pretty and creative compares to other car in the same class.
