I agree...the spy shot made it look much more aggressive. This new picture makes it look too rounded. Again, it may be due to the angle but we'll see

Actually, 12:15-12:40 is Infiniti's slot.

12:45 is Lexus.

Looks like I will have to be out of the office at the time. If there's a video or photos, please post them here so I can check it out when I get back

I hope they seriously step up their luxury game as well as the performance end. I'm starting to value that a lot more than I used to. Butter soft leather (with no butt wrinkle in the drivers seat bottom!), soft touch materials, interior fit and finish, better displays and instrumentation, and creature comforts are more important to me now than when I bought my coupe in 07. All the competitors have stepped up, it's time for Infiniti to do the same and not just give us more HP.

Ford just announced a 325 hp AWD Ford Fusion. That's pretty impressive for that segment. Fine looking sedan, too.

I'm watching the reveal right now, waiting for Inifiniti to queue up. I've been interested in the revised Q60 for some time, although without a proper 6MT, I can't say as I'm personally interested anymore. I'm only 52... I'm not dead yet, LOL.

Yes exactly! Pretty sure the hp/tq is there, but my last concern is the interior! So hopefully, the interior has been upgraded and brought to a new level.

Oh hey, impressive video. And body-colored BBK calipers... unless they're all red anyway. That's interesting.

And Ghosn just confirmed there is no 6MT. Well that's it then. I guess my 2011 will be my last Infiniti. Bummer.

Pretty car, though.

Looks like I saw the interior has black pillars and roof! It's about time! All black interior! The silver looked pretty awesome, but still think Platinum Graphite will win my heart.

The beginning of the promo video was pretty cool.

The silver looks good....i was hoping for 415hp but 400 should suffice lol. I have mixed opinions now that theyve revealed it...not feeling the front bumper nor rear. Stock wheels look bland. Interior looked very good, the seats look great. Sorry to seem so negative but i now have a meh feeling about the Q60. Maybe once people get to work modding them i will fall in line.

New coupe looks pretty BA in the photo. Hopefully the the angles in-person are equally attractive...

It looked good. I really like the profile and rear end. Interior looks very similar (if not the same) as the Q50. Not sure about that front end though with all that chrome.

It looks like you'll be able to rewatch at your leisure via LiveStream as I already did that after watching the short and to the point presentation by Mr. Ghosn.

http://livestream.com/cnet/detroitautoshow

Go to the 4h:58m mark to queue up Infiniti pres. The Lexus presentation by Mr Toyoda following the Infiniti one is going on now is worth a look as I'm enjoying his intro and humor even before he gets to the model updates. Interesting contrast of presentation methods by Ghosn and Toyoda.


Here's an article by Tim Stevens of CNET (one of the hosts of the livestream) with a few details mentioned that had to wait to be released until the presentation

Jalopnik write-up... there's already a comment 'Coming to a bro near you!' lol

Absolutely. Ghosn's presentation fell completely flat, without any enthusiasm or style. It happens every single time he gets on stage. What is it about the egos on these people? A professional presenter with public speaking skills would have made it far more engaging.

Meh.
