To understand Infiniti’s success in the US is to realize that some people want an alternative. Upscale performance and style for us is either BMW or Infiniti. So if we don’t want to overspend buying the ubiquitous 3-series, then the G35 is the logical choice.

They’ll probably stick to the current engine due to the lower gas consumption and the lower powered competition in the US.

I am pretty sure those cars will see Europe with Renault diesels under the hood. Furthermore, I bet that diesels will be upgraded to higher out put then standard ones. Renault does not have near luxury image even in France. This may be it.

^^ Jaguar? Don’t you mean Ford, or even worse, Tata? And the bad thing is, Jagaur’s quality and reliability actually IMPROVED in the hands of Ford …
I would never touch one …

LP I don’t think so Infiniti has alot of Good things going for it. This car can step it up a notch or too. but I would definitely buy it over a Cadillac. Now a Lincoln I would perfer over the two if Mulally give Lincoln the Go ahead on upcoming projects

i don’t think Infiniti will crack “Fortress” Europe. We have Mercedes, BMW, Audi and Jaguar right here, why on earth would anybody buy an Infiniti?

Plus: No diesels and no image.
Most buyers are conservative, they wouldn’t even buy a Phaeton, even though everybody knows how much VW is obsessed with quality (I’ve heard it’s different in the US) and that they run Audi so they have the same ressources..

If Lexus can’t do it (the only reason they enjoy moderate success is the damn hybrid) then Infiniti definetely can’t.

Odd that Europe would get a larger engine than the US

The G is a great car. I’ve driven the G35 sedan here in the states, and it was great. Not quite a 335i though I might add.

Well eventually they will replace the aging 3.5L V6. Obviously the new Z will be dubbed the 370Z and I hear that the M will have the 3.7L engine, same goes for the FX…let’s say that this engine will be in almost any nissan/infiniti product. For Kaizen: that is a funny comment…i just love it!

With no Diesel engines, they won’t sell here. Just like lexus, except the IS220d

Please bring the G37 sedan state side. Then the price of used G35s will drop and I can go out and buy one.

Why are the Japanese manufactuer’s all EXACTLY matching hp numbers? IS350: 306 hp, G35/37 306 hp. Camry V6: 268, Accord: 268hp…the Altima thought it was special with 270 hp. Sorta find it odd. The gentlemen’s agreement went out the window a long time ago.
