Exactly. We (enthusiast) tend to think that we represent the majority but in all actuality, we're a small portion of the folks who buys these cars. I'm sure the majority of the "real" target market probably could cares less whether it's a G or Q nomination. If it looks good and drives nice at a reasonable price, they'll buy.

based on the amount of debt this country is reaching, there are less and less younger gens that will be able to afford infinti's so they might as well cater to the people that can afford it

I would definitely be down for a factory FI 6 cylinder. Would make modding for performance so much easier and less up front cost

We will all just have to see if they new ones are good enough to still get us into them if they are a "q". Is a downer but the name is only a very small portion of why we buy cars at the end of the day

Good thing the Detroit show is right around the corner North American International Auto Show : Home I'm annoyed by Infiniti dropping such a crap news with no additional info... but also very excited at the same time

I haven't been on here for ages but it seems like I haven't missed too much otherwise. Can you believe it's already been a year since we were getting so amped up for Zdayz! Crazy how fast time comes and goes these days.
