I would say 'touch screenS'. In that it looks like you can swipe left or right to view more apps.
Perhaps a little QNX flavouring

I have a nitpick. I wonder why did they have to put the tow hook cover on the front of the bumper cover rather than lower in the grille where it's not as noticeable? Obviously it has to go in a place where there's structural integrity to pull the car, but it spoins the front symmetry somewhat IMO. Certainly not a deal breaker.

And does anybody have a guess as to what the panel is in this photo just below the tow hook cover on the lft side of the lower grille? ICC sensor would likely be on the opposite side in RHD markets where these photos came from.

Yeah I think it's ICC. Makes the most sense...

I just blew this shot up to see more detail and saw a few new things I hadn't noticed before.

The center dial on the console is labeled "Map/Voice", a back button in the center, and "Camera" on the other button. Toggle switch to select the various cameras in the Around View monitor?

The seat heater buttons are now located low on the center dash stack rather than on console near the lid.

The buttons to scroll and select the instrument panel display are now located on the right steering wheel spoke rather than on the side of the console itself like before. I think this is better placement and more convenient.

As pointed out, there is a Pandora app shown on the touchscreen (I love this!) as well as the red "Infiniti Drive Mode Selector". That sounds promising.

I've been told that there is a digital representation of the analog clock that you can show in the display screen.

JK, I completely made that up.

Even if it were true it wouldn't be the same. Looks like it's gone. I wonder if that is intentional with the change of direction they are taking, as a way to sever ties with the "old Infiniti' and move forward? I'll miss it. But not a deal breaker for me.

Looks like it, very cool interface provides both physical buttons and touch panels. A touch only interface like the one in the ATS would be a disaster.

Is there anyone else like me would miss the moving instrument cluster? It doesn't seem to have one.

That IS a bad thing because it looks like a Sonata. But I figure that it was Hyndai copied Infiniti G's design to begin with, and now it looked like a baby of the G37 and Q50.

The clock is no deal breaker for me either. No we gotta wait a full year for the coupe.

I'm wondering if it is a little wider than the current G sedan?

Will the 2014 Q50 front bumper be a direct fit/swap with my 2011G37S or will I have to also change some other parts?

Damn it, Betty, I was just going to suggest that!

I think that's a fine idea. I'd much rather see the digitized/analog clock than that stupid MPG slider gauge.

since the interior shot has paddles, safe to assume those are the sport seats?

It is a bummer than nissan/infiniti insists on preserving the light grey/tan color on the headliner/pillars ... kinda spoils the sportiness of a it a little.

Anyone address the lights right above the fogs? turn signals I suppose??

Can't wait for model & pricing info.

Someone said release would be Spring 2013? Is this typcial for infiniti? also, does Infiniti usually try to charge MSRP+ when a new model drops?

If there will be any markup, it will be charged by the dealer on a discretionary basis. The manufacturer only sets the MSRP... The 'S' being a rather important part of the acronym.
