^ Yes I always look for the coupe to introduce new performance technologies to the market on behalf of Infiniti... Like upgraded engine/ engine output performance, brake technologies etc...
2003- G35 coupe had 280 HP vs 260 from the Sedan, Also Brembo Brakes
2008- New 3.7 liter engine introduced via the coupe as well as Akebono Brakes

Which is what you'd be lead to believe by all the quotes from Nysschen. then before the ink was even dry on this final design, he bailed. I'm hoping its more than a shorter Q50, but its not going to be a baby GT-R.

I think it looks great! My only hope (probably won't happen) is that the trunk is an actual hatch, not just a tiny, hinged, trunk lid.

Overall I really like the lines and stance of the car which is critical. If the front or rear bumper isnt exactly what people like, they can easily swap them out like many have done with the Aero or other aftermarket bumpers.

As far as Infiniti concepts go, when they say "Very, very, very close...", I'd take it to mean something like the G37 concept:

I agree with this guy. Infiniti does 2 kinds of concepts. Emerge, Essence, ect and then they do like above and Eau Rouge (drive-able "ready" aka very very very very close)

Any chance in hell that these headlights make it into production? Sure is a creative design. Some kind of angry bird thing going on.

I am hoping they do, because they look awesome! Can only imagine what they would look like at night!

It appears that the Q 60 will be powered by a TwinTurbo V6

Score for the TT V6!!!

I wonder if they'll have an optional lower output engine ala BMW with the 328 and 335. That would be a longshot since they rarely offer two engine choices, but CAFE standards might force them to do so.

That's been such a long time coming, I'm kind of shocked.

So this Detroit Show... it's the concept that's on display, right? Not a production reveal? In which case, aside from power train details, haven't we seen all the visuals there are to be seen of the concept car?
