In the future when IPL offers TTs and SCs and the Essence youll take that back haha

 

Drop and spacers ASAP!!

 

Let's just hope.

 

Very nice! Can't wait to see it dropped w rims.

 

I like the wheels. the end

 

Correct... But until then... Still not impressed. When that time comes, I may say "Okay. I'm impressed now."

 

I guess those special IPL badges must have been expensive to produce.

 

I was driving on the road at :38 yesterday, fun drive

 

"We really really think that this [the exhaust tips] is one of the features that is going to distinguish our IPL."

Really? You know what distinguishes a performance vehicle to me? Its performance.

 

Well said!

 

At least Infiniti is offering an alternative to the aftermarket and putting a factory warranty on it. This first IPL may not be the M3 killer everyone wants but the ipl design concept is not even intended to be anything like that anyway at this point. A fully loaded stock G is 45k msrp, with the ipl g coming in for 49k it is actually not a bad alternative. Aftermarket rims, body kit, exhaust etc would be around the same 4-5k at least. So those who want to mod themselves can get a base G and be happy, and others who want a factory "aftermarket" feel can spend the premium and get it straight from Infiniti.

I of course would love a 60k true performance G but looks like that is not happening at least in this models cycle! Maybe 2013?

 

Infiniti G37 News: 2011 Infiniti IPL G Coupe Debut – Car and Driver

 

Infiniti has to start somewhere I guess. I'm sure people would say the same about BMW's "M" name if it were to debut in modern times. I can see it now, "M? What the hell is that? Just M?"

I would have liked to see more than an 18+ HP bump that can be achieved with an ECU reflash. G50 would have been great at $49k and 400+ HP from a N/A engine.

 

i still want one but it's so fiscally unsound

 

Exactly. But currently, the IPL is not worth its name or money.
