I think that is a touchscreen. There are two different shots of that screen that show different things on it. I think this car looks great and the Q60 will be even better

The second screen is an apps and climate control screen. Nice that there is a Pandora option now.

It looks much more aggressive then my 2011 sedan and I have the 19 coupe wheels on. Power plant and drivetrain is the question.

Reminds me of what Honda did with the new Accord. A nav screen, then below it a touch screen with a layout featuring different 'apps'.

Although, IMO the layout/overall design of this looks MUCH better!

Can't wait until Monday morning. At least the new Vette will be unveiled tonight (already seen the two leaked pics)...that should hold me over until tomorrow morning.

LOL @ Slinger. I drive like a 49 year old, suburban Dad.

Here's a thought... assuming they continue using the same engine in the car (hybrid notwithstanding), it will likely support the same tuning they used in the IPL. In other words, expect a small boost in HP.

I seriously doubt the engine will be the selfsame iteration. Just doesn't make sense in this market and political climate.

The hybrid badge is intriguing. From the original photos I thought that was a side marker lamp. Good eye.

Anyone else see the soft button labeled "infiniti drive mode selector "?... What gadgets do you think will be adjustable?

I'm guessing dampers, throttle, and shift logic.

It would be cool if they did something like the Audi Quattro drive. Lets you change the suspension/ecu depending on driving conditions.

Friend of mine has it on his S4, he says its pretty cool to have control like that.

I just hope it doesn't also have mandatory active steering. THAT would be an instant deal killer for me.

And you know that steer by wire will be a bad thing how exactly?

I didn't say steer by wire. I'm talking about active ratios. I HATE that feature on any car. I want my ratio to be fixed, period.

And I'm skeptical about SBW, but willing to try.
