Not many here are older than me, and I don't like it. Maybe it's so we forget there's no Android Auto.

You would think a salesman doing a video review would get his facts right before putting it out there....and this guy wasn't nearly as bad as the ones I have talked to in person at the dealerships. I am usually telling them about the features and options on these cars usually accompanied by a "oh really? I didn't know that!". But good catch on the 20s - which btw ironically one of the salespersons DID mention.

I know that the red sports that the trainers got ( pre production) had the 20s. A lot of the trainers where cool with the reps doing videos on those cars. And those cars are getting crushed.

As far as what I was told, no 20s in the us and none of information I've seen shows otherwise.

I just assumed that was a very recent video, but I guess if it was shot when the trainers were going around then we still don't know what the final RS wheel size/design is for sure. The Q50 RS rims look okay in the commercials, but the standard 19s look very undersized on the coupe.

Agreed, but I'm afraid that is the official wheel design and size for us. You didn't see the Q60 with Q50RS wheel until that first commercial and it appears Infiniti has shamed themselves by going back on their word when they stated in a official press release that the Q60 would have 20in wheels. As ElJoker mentioned my store also stated they have no option or indication of 20in wheels. Seems like a last minute cost reduction by Infiniti.

Performance and comfort wise, 19's is the perfect size.

20's looks like 4x4's anyways.

Besides, if you want 20's and if you're going for that showy look, you can always get Volsens lol

I also preferred the staggered look of the G35. I'm guessing too many complained about price and what not so they got rid of the staggered wheels?

RWD RS is staggered. I believe it's 9in up front and 9.5 in the rear.

Hate, hate hate the rear side windows... shape, and the thick. phony chrome.

And as I feared, the new coupe now has the same iPad-style touch screen as the Q50 (which are loaners at my dealership) and I'm not a fan. Eyes off the road.

I was saving up for a g37 preferably IPL, but then I found out this monster was coming out, factory twin turbo, attesa AWD (INFINITI Intelligent AWD). I ended up really liking the design as well, let's see what else the aftermarket can offer (traditional skyline GTR style tail lights please).

Basically this car has had me cancel my IPL which I was really looking forward to get, I was going to buy it used, but I might get this car brand new. I just have to save up more.

The black version is growing on me since it hides some of the ugliness. But I'm not sold in it yet.

The double screen infotainment system is horrible. Besides the bugs and the lag, the interface isn't as good as the physical buttons.

For example, in the G37, to turn the A/C on or off, all we have to do is press the A/C button.

On the double screen version, there is a 2-step process.
