It's June already, not a single review for Q50?

Am I missing something?

The fact that they aren't being sold yet?

Infiniti said on sale this summer. Isn't it summer already? Feel like it's about time to at least hear some noise about it. The new IS 350 was in the news and it is great, isn't it time for Q50 joining the party? It would be a tough fight against the IS 350.

summer officially starts June 21. if they didn't start selling it until August, technically, it's still summer. so they wouldn't be lying.

I didn't mean they were lying. Seriously, don't you think it is a bit too quiet? Have they just fired half of their marketing staff or something?

It's just that there's nothing to get excited about. Same engine and tranny since 2009... Not even 10 hp more... Meh.

Yup, pretty much how like some movies and books aren't reviewed prior to release for fear of garnering too much negative attention from critics.

The whole close suffers from an embarrassing lack of advancement, not just the Q50.

That's what I've been thinking since the announcement, although I've still not seen the car in person, and it might very well be a stunner. Particularly the new Hybrid. And particularly in red.

For anyone who considers the G37 an entry level luxury car, the new Q50 seems to deliver on those values beyond expectations. But for everyone here who considers their G a Sport Sedan... not so much.

It looks like BMW, Mercedes, Lexus and Infiniti got drunk one night and had an orgy. Oh...and don't forget the Nissan maxima being all perv like and beating off in the corner watching it all. 9 months later, the Q was born as the b@stard child....no one really knows who the daddy is.


We all know how much everyone likes the b@stard child.

LOL. Good one, Sniper. It does seem like a bastardized amalgamation of upscale sedans.

If John Snow could afford a Q50...

They said the car will be out in summer. Technically speaking, you can't complain until summer actually ends. A little birdie also told me there may have been slight production delays.
