Whoa! kudos to this dude.

So I was walking this morning in busy Tokyo, when I saw a dude driving this:

They don't sell verts in Japan so he imported an Infiniti vert to Japan. That can't be cheap.

I give him more kudos than to other dude who was driving a convertible Gallardo. There are probably more of those in Japan than the Infinitis...

Maybe he's from Nissan Corp? Nevertheless, it's one sweet ride.

Looks like it. They look sweet. I hate the fact that a 2.5 Altima has those but we don't.

Wow, if he did import this back to japan. Shipped probably to us then back to japan. Seem like he would just buy it off the line in japan.

They do make G's in japan but they make verts for us and hard tops for japan. Same way a 03 G sedan is a G here but in japan its a skyline. Its pretty stupid but that's how they work.

Guys.. you guys not seeing which side steering wheel is located.

This car is obviously not made to be driven in Tokyo. Unless you get used to driving on left side, this car might pose safety hazard for some driver.

Nope the 2010 2.5SLs now have them available. BOO for us 3.5s that thought we were special to have them exclusively. All good things come to an end.

But I am BOGGLED in the mind why EVERY Infiniti but the QX do not come with Mirror turn signals. Yet the Altima and Maxima have them available. Every Infiniti should have them standard.
