What would you like to see in a future Infiniti?

IMO, the G37 is probably the best bang for your buck mid-range luxury sports coupe. I'm sure most of y'all agree.

But I was wondering...what features and qualities would you like to see incorporated in a future Infiniti G Coupe/Sedan/Vert? Think about things that other auto manufacturers offer or are characterized by.

Would you like to see turbocharged engines for better low-end torque? More safety features such as something similar to a "BMW Assist" button? Better electronics, audio, etc.?

As a side note, don't wish for a 500hp engine with a 0-60 time of 3 seconds. We're talking G's here, not M6's.

Personally, I would like to see a better iPod interface, non-bubbling leather seats, higher quality interior materials, and a stock exhaust note similar to that of the G35, which sounded much better IMO. Also, I think that the stock sport package brakes leave much to be desired.

Anyway, share your thoughts!

I'd love to see the "g37" with the 5.6L V8 in the M56. Ideal i'd like around 450HP. Wider wide profile and a more aggressive hood to. I'd dont wanna see a 3.7L TT because that too much like the Nissan GTR.

However more realistically I'd like to see the G37 pump its power up to 350HP and 300TQ.

For the next generation G37 Coupe, I would like a little more hp, say 350, but a lot more torque - with a flatter torque curve. I would also like more room for the occasional rear seat occupant and more storage space in the center console. Lastly, I would like the sport package to be available on the G37x Coupe (like it is on the G37 sedan). Aside from that, I am very pleased with what you get for the money - all in a great looking package.

modified 4.5 V8 from M45 with high rev capability.
Maybe up the horse power to about 370, but make torque insane and flat
No turbos. G is all about raw power.

I'd like to see a G40, with about 370 hp. =)

Cosmetic wise...

-separate foglights (like the 2010 G sedan)
-blinkers on the side view mirrors (if the Altima coupe and tC have it why not G's??)
-more leather / interior color choices
-more angled front bumper (not rounded like the G37's)
-350/370Z gauges (make it optional to make everyone happy)
-smoother clutch/manual transmission

the sport brakes are great IMO, I don't care about the OEM exhaust note cause I'd change it out either way, and if it were TT'd or whatnot that'd be awesome but there is no way to keep the same price model.

Realistically the only thing that might change is higher quality interior material/leather (even though I am completely happy with the way it is), but I would never complain about an upgrade

I would like

A really dark metallic grey exterior paint with a hard clear coat.

More low end torque.

Black headliner.

More aggressive flared out fenders.

To be able to set more options through car, like setting door unlocking in park, simple push button reset of ecu etc.

No chrome spoilers.

Piano black interior option.

I agree with the black headliner, that would be awesome. There is no chrome spoiler, don't go calling that little chrome bump a spoiler get the real spoiler if you want a spoiler!

I'll agree with the masses. More low end torque is the biggest complaint for me. That and more durable paint would be great.

Black headliner and pillars def would be nice.

it would be great if we had power folding side mirrors w/ intergrated led blinkers.

A factory turbo would be nice, or at least something that responded better to bolt ons/tune.

A diet wouldnt hurt either lol

YEs i forgot to mention that. More durable clear coat. way too soft now. Like i said beofre id like a peak toque of 300 but most importantly a more flat torque curve and more torque aat the bottom

More low-end torque and a "summer entry" feature that turns on the car / A/C from your key fob!
