Well we have about a month or so until the auto show and we get to see accurate pics/video, interior and hopefully we will have hp/tq numbers, though I doubt they will tell us at the auto show what the engine output options will be. The spy pics are quite distorted in some pics but overall I can tell it will look quite amazing in real life.
300HP @ 6400RPM / 295 Torque at 1600RPM
400HP @ 6400RPM / 350 Torque at 1600RPM
If you dont believe me, you will see in January I am telling you the truth

It's interesting that top of the line near 80k Benz has an Accord-like wheel gap where as new Q60 has almost no wheel gap. Also I would buy a German performance car when it can be owned outside of warranty period without mortgaging your house to pay for repairs.

Audi, BMW and MB all do "goodwill" no cost service repairs outside of warranty. Porsche is the only one that I know of that does so on a case by case basis which is why I'd never buy one. BMW is the best at taking care of you followed by MB and Audi when it comes to repairs outside of warranty.

??? what makes u think the new turbo engines are reliable? heck, the 2.0T mercedes motor will be available for the q50 and q60 in the US. Are those german motor more reliable because it's running in a Japanese car?
and i had a g35 and q50 sedan. both cars has been at the dealership for all sorts of issues.
The Q50 had problems after the problems. The G35 was more of a upkeep visit. Good thing I had the extended warranty. From leaking sparkplugs, cracking compression rod bushings, leaking rear sub frame, popping sunroof sounds, failing door lock mechanism, door seal cracking, etc.
Good thing it didn't burn oil. 6mt revup
point is, it takes money to play. Just be thankful we get loaners. people who buy BMWs aren't complaining as much about Maintenance as the G35 coupe drivers are about gas prices. lol
Can't wait for the 3.0T Q60 drivers posting if they can run 87 octane lol. "but cars nowadays are smarter, we can run cheap fuel all we want. we have anti knock sensors and the car will tune itself to run cheaper fuel" is the excuse I hear a lot.

The real magic is that people still keep the cars (and happily signup to buy another), despite the fact that they can't go 4 months without something failing. So, gotta hand it to the Germans for that piece, I guess.
At least when Infiniti has issues, it's usually a one and done kind of thing with few repeats of the same issue. The rear timing cover gasket comes to mind but that's been fixed with a properly engineered part so at least it won't repeat.
But yes, I am eagerly awaiting the 87 octane discussion, again. I think I'm easily amused because it's always hilarious to watch that train-wreck from the sidelines.

Also, I'll never get a car that doesn't have touch screen controls again. I had an MB c class a few years ago that had a dial and my current Lexus IS350 has a little joy-stick to control radio, navi, etc. Both are super annoying to use.

[QUOTE=Dr.Pat;3972827]Good looking car inside and out, but i can't get past what MB (and BMW and Audi) did with the navi screen...basically just slapped a tablet on the dash. Ruins it for me.

whoever ok'd that design to just sit there needs to be reevaluated. Simply horrid looking

The Eau Rouge might live again. Apparently this place still hasn't heard that we will be using our own V6 and not a Benz one.

I agree. The C class coupe is nice, but something about the exterior and interior is off to me, prefer the Q60.

Personally dislike the C-Class interior. The air vents remind me of soda can bottoms. That NAV screen looks stupid, like someone mounted a tablet to the dash. Audi does the same stupid thing. It should look like it belongs there, not like an afterthought. And don't get me started on the touchpad. That thing looks like a flaccid d**k on the center console.
