A line has been drawn!

Wow, what a teaser. How revealing. Are they serious? They could’ve put some more effort into it.

I don’t like the wheels.

these crossover coupes confuse the hell out of me… Since when has there been a demand for a jacked up g35? How about making a RWD coupe around 25K with a 4 cylinder turbo engine? HELLO TO THE AUTO INDUSTRY…. EVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT????????

First thing I’d do with one of these jacked up coupes is slam the hell out of it… They better be RWD or AWD

Yea the wheel suck! Not a fan of the color scheme either. GM is going to eat this up, blah blah blah, looks like another snack for the Sky, lol.

Judging by the teaser pic all I can say is POS. I mean, it looks so outdated.

I can see myself driving around in this sketch right now.

GM4ever…I’m waiting on you to pounce on this. Please don’t let me down.

^LoL
A couple stick figures in the teaser sketch would’ve been a nice touch.

If that’s all they’ve got, they have a at least a year before the design team builds a miniature clay model of the thing. Reminds me of a 280Z though… is Nissan going to follow Ford, GM, and DCX and get all nostalgic on us by remaking the old models?

Um, Breok. . . 350Z

Eh, Nissan previewed something here?

I don’t like the idea!

While this shows us very little, there does appear to be something interesting going on around the rear glass area.

it’s fugly. LOL

Lol. Wtf.

Isnt the FX due for replacement in the next year or two? This is probably the new shape, since the original one is more a lifted car than an actual SUV.

In hopes of landing a high paying job at Nissan’s design studio, I’ve significantly modified the pic to give you all a better idea of how it will look ….

My eyes.. they burn! They BURN!!

From all the priliminary information dropped here and there over the last two years, I strongly believe that this is not a concept for a crossover coupe, but rather a small five passenger crossover that will be placed below the FX in the Infiniti line-up. The Infiniti CX (name may change before production) is intended to compete with smaller, less expensive crossovers like the Acura RDX, 2009 Volvo XC60, 2009 Cadillac BRX, 2009 Mercedes Benz MLK (name may change), and possibly a Lexus compact crossover based off the Rav4 platform. In essence, the CX will allow the next generation FX to grow into a more conventional three row seven passenger crossover wagon to compete with the Acura MDX, Cadillac SRX, next generation Lexus RX, Mercedes Benz ML, etc.

OMG SO AWESOME.

Hey where is GMnumberonedumbass to proclaim that Pontiac will put the Aztek back into production to run Infinity out of the cross-over market?!?!?!?

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

lolololol, that guy is a clown, everyone please ignore him, it has to be a lil kid just having fun, i mean, who buys pontiac anyway? def people that know crap about cars, sorry to insult any pontiac owners )although there are exceptions for some old school models)

^before I got my EVO, I almost baught a 2006 GTO. Awesome car. I wouldn’t knock on them. Especially if you haven’t seen what’s coming our way from Australia(holden) in the near future.

If you turn your head sideways, you can see the half of a face.

another weird car. GMnumber1fan…. where are uuuuu

ps. dre, i think gmnumber1 can be entertaining as clowns are. i like to reply to him. i find it fun

This sketch would make a nice logo. I can already see the polo shirts, hats, etc. with this printed on them.

Chevy Brazil did the same sketch line thingy with their “new” vectra over here. today the **** is selling more than everything, so this might work…

or maybe because the average brazilian got nothing more than this, the corolla, the fusion and the bora (jetta in US)

Gawd, I hope they don’t build this. Infiniti can’t survive another embarrassment. Besides, how does an ailing brand have the money to design stuff like this. You’d think that a company on the brink of disaster would just pack it up and go back to Japan crying and moaning.

what embarrassment infiniti made? the aztek? no, wait, that was pontiac…

GMnumberone4ever, are you Aston Kuncher? Is there a hidden camera behind my desk? Are we being punked? You got me man, nobody could be as close-minded to American made products. Whew, good one.

“…..Gawd, I hope they don’t build this. Infiniti can’t survive another embarrassment. Besides, how does an ailing brand have the money to design stuff like this. You’d think that a company on the brink of disaster would just pack it up and go back to Japan crying and moaning…..”

Probably because Infiniti is not an ailing brand.

No Statsmo, I think Breok really meant the 280Z… See the lines:

I Blame Women theory:

Women buy more new cars than men.
Women like sporty looking cars.- not always true sports cars
Women like the implied safety of riding higher than normal cars (minvans,suvs, etc)

Enter the CUV coupe. I’m not chauvinistic- this is just my theory. Given these assumptions ,I can see some bean counter at the motor companies saying “hey this is a market that is untapped”.

I think you’re on to something Jazz. Also, ask any car salesmen and they will all tell you the same thing……it’s the woman who they have to sell to because they have the final say.

lol this is the funiest thread by far. but seriously how can infiniti release 3 brush strokes and make such a big fuss about it. this is a bit of a joke

well, if any of you have seen the recent Infiniti ads (and it was also on their website, but i cant find it now), they usually have that brush stroke sketch incorporated in. It shows the simple, elegant brush stroke design, and then the car is imposed on top. I seem to remember reading that thats how infiniti does its designs– they draw a little brush stroke sketch like the one above, and then they take that idea and develope the design into an entire car. Its pretty cool, because its gives the car a basic direction for a shape which the design can be focused on. I dont think there are a lot of other car companies that can turn their designs into three brush strokes and get such a cool shape.

here, i found a bit on their site that describes it:

So this is the only thread GMnumberone4eva has not been in? Odd.

no bb_454, he’s up there ^^

You right, that sneeky bastard did get a comment in. I guess I was expecting more out of him.

yeah, we are cutting off the attention we give to him…that’s good until he changes again
GMRules, GMnumberone4ever…it’s funny he didn’t even tried to sound different…it’s clearly the same
