Default Infiniti Q60

So, what do you guys think of this? Any thoughts of trading your A5/S5 for one down the road since we've now seen what the next gen A5/S5 will look like? Just curious.

Not a chance to trade my RS5 for one. Nearest dealer is 450 miles away. I am waiting for next RS5...

I wouldn't expect anyone with an RS5 to trade for a Q60... even the Red Sport... but considering the design of the new A5/S5 I wouldn't be surprised to see some defectors.

It might look nice but I won't touch Infinity until reliability is proven.

Wife's sister had a G35x, nothing but troubles. Finally, transmission blew on year 4. She got rid of it and swore never again Infinity.

Every relative or friend of mine with an Infinity G car has loved them with no problems. Even my friends with 90 and 91 Qs had nothing but help from the Infinity dealer. Both of them got new alternators at 50K plus miles and new transmissions. The Q was awesome...run all day at 150+ mph (ok, for ten minutes or so up I81 in NY to Binghampton...35 miles between exits!)

We've had 3 G37's... one coupe and two verts. No issues with any of them.

They do look nice but no manual tranny is a deal breaker for me....for either this car or the new 5.

The grill on that new Q is fugly. And looks like they totally copied Audi w/ the lights. I wouldn't get rid of my A5 for one. Still rather have a German car than a Japanese one.

To my eye it looks like a weird combination of angles and curves.
