Have you guys seen this New Small Infiniti to get Mercedes 1.8-liter Turbo - Motor Trend Curious to see how much of the exterior styling makes it to production. I really like it! One can only wish they d throw a meaty V8 in there!!

 

Idk what to say Tevi....I just cant get over it looking like some kind of fish or something like that with the front layout....but from the front it looks great. I just dont know why they want to make something even smaller than the G coupe, albeit does look a lot like the essence... Hopefully next month we will know more!

 

I do remember seeing an article talking about Mercedes and Nissan vehicles possibly sharing engines and such, but hadn't seen actual concepts yet. I think the grill is a little too big and out front too much. One thing I like about the 35 and 37 is how the grill sits up a little higher. It'd be interesting to see it from the side and rear though.

 

okay, seriously, i didn't have access to the internet for what...an hour?? AND I HAD TO TAKE 10 MINUTES JUST TO CATCH UP on all the posts!!!! HOLY SH*T!!!


Tevi, The springs in the front aren't actually that bad. The sway bar end link is the only bolt that's a B*tch to get undone...but other then that its pretty straight forward. It also helps doing it on cars that have never seen SALT or hardly even seen a drop of water!! My camber arms were everything the same as a spring install. Even had to drop the strut down.

 

It would be awesome if they brought it to the car show so we can have a first hand look at it.

The profile may be tricky with that big of a grill but I like how bold it looks.

My G has never been driven in snow so i guess I have that going on. It s definitely worth giving it a try.

 

I guess dropping it a good 3" makes it look a tad better

After:

 

Idk how I feel about that thing lol

 

Shortened up the grill in height and a little in width:

 

that's what i'm thinkin'...i think it looks dimented and impurportional

 

It has great potential. Remember that how most people felt about the 37 when it was about to come out.

 

Cause the grill was too big and tall and the ride height was too high making it look short and stubby-It almost looks like a 2 dr FX. I changed those in the last pic I posted and it looks much more proportional IMO.

 

I agree and I m sure that the grill will be more similar to what u have.since most concepts Infiniti makes are slightly tamed for the production version.

 

I think this picture does not do the car justice though. It makes the car look fatter and rounder than I think it really is.

I like the bold styling, but the changes made in the photo shopped pics make it look better.

 

Haha, we will have to wait n see. Maybe I can treat myeelf before my 5 year plan :P

 

Famous "delay" when in sport mode and shifting?? Or am I completly off track? If so... yes there is a delay!!! But I still feel cool, way too cool for school!
