2016 Infiniti Q50 Red Sport 400 First Test: Track-Testing the Most Powerful Q50 - Motor Trend

^ another article about the sedan, but note the performance numbers this motor is putting down. Pretty impressive.

Performance numbers are impressive. I am planning to get the AWD Q60, so that should help put the power down better. Seems they weren't thrilled about it sliding around so much on the RWD and not having the VLSD, but to each their own.

Interesting. 400hp and no LSD. On the Sport model. I can't put the power down now with the naturally aspirated motor and and Infiniti's VLSD.

That's before options and non sport. Expect 300 sport at 48k and 400 at 51k before options (MSRP)

19 in standard wheels?!?!?!




About the 2017 INFINITI Q60
The all-new INFINITI Q60, a style leader since its original inception, offers a compelling combination of daring design and exhilarating performance and dynamics. The third-generation of INFINITI's renowned sports coupe is offered in a range of two-wheel and all-wheel drive configurations and powerplants – including the 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo that it shares with the popular INFINITI Q50 sports sedan.


The INFINITI Q60 2.0t is powered by an advanced 2.0-liter 4-cylinder turbo engine, producing 208 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Positioned as a key entry model to the premium sports coupe segment, the 2.0t provides rich feature content and undeniable style. Notable standard features include 19-inch wheels, LED headlights, Flexible Stop Position doors, 8-way powered high backed bolstered sport seats, contrast stitched dashboard and door panels, Bluetooth® hands-free phone system with streaming audio, and RearView Monitor. The Q60 2.0t Premium grade adds power sliding/tilting moonroof, Bose® Performance Series Audio plus seven speakers (13 total) and more.

The INFINITI Q60 3.0t Premium features the standard content of the Q60 2.0t Premium but is powered by the all-new VR-series 3.0 liter V6 twin-turbo engine. Positioned as the core volume trim, the 3.0t offers superior V6 performance to comparably priced 4-cylinder competitors.

The new, exclusive VR-series 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine is available in two states of tune – 300 horsepower in the Q60 3.0t Premium and 400 horsepower in the upcoming Q60 Red Sport 400 – and is a more than worthy successor to the renowned, highly awarded "VQ-series" V6 that has been a mainstay of INFINITI performance models for many years. Both of the new VR-series engines have been developed to provide an ideal mix of drivability, efficiency and performance. Around 85 percent of the parts utilized in the VR-series V6 are different from those used in the previous VQ-series V6.

It's actually dangerous driving a car with this much power to the rear wheels and open differential. I don't know what they are thinking.

Eljoker, that's getting into a crowded market. About how much negotiating room is there in these new models?

You won't see dealer cash right off the bat. I would say they have between 2200-3600 between invoice and msrp depending on model and option. Keep in mind dealer cost is not the same as invoice.

RS q50s had 3200 with just premium package when they launched. No I think they have 1500 dealer cash.

Also keep in mind dealer cash might only apply to purchase or lease or might be different for either or. Best to wait a month or 2 for the "have to have-rs" to satisfy the sticker train of the dealers. Then once those have boughten and dealers need units, time to move in.

I want to see the interior accent lighting, I'm a sucker for it. I know there in the door panels and cup holder. Anyone know if there is an overhead led courtesy light? Pics would be awesome if anyone can scrounge up some.

From a non Infiniti owner and a non biased opinion I think it looks good, nothing amazing but decemt. In some angles it looks just like a normal everyday car that wouldn't garner too much attention. The front is awful, the side & rear is what makes the car. Modded I'm sure it would look good, but that front end is just a no no for me. I'd probably not purchase one because of that reason alone. Otherwise good job Infiniti.
