Infiniti Lineup

[thearabian]

G20:

In Canada, Acura has the 1.6 EL. Basically it is a fully loaded Civic with minor exterior changes and interior leather etc... It sells for about 2500 more than a fully loaded Civic.
These cars are selling like HOTCAKES. Now, i am not suggesting dumbing down the G20, just modify it slightly and lower the price by A LOT and market the car as "wouldn't you like to own an Infiniti, well now you can"

But that's just my opinion, i could be wrong ala Dennis Miller...

S25 and S25-R:

Bring over the Silvia, sell it base for roughly the price of an Integra GS (maybe less).
Also bring over the Spec-R, give it leather/suede seats and sell it for 20-25 grand.

Up the price ladder: I30 ===> I35

Keep the VQ in this car, give it the VQ35, offer more exterior and interior color options, but essentially, leave this car unchanged.
Rename it to I35, keep same pricetag!

G30:

XVL, minor modifications to exterior, make sure the interior is sporty yet elegant, UNLIKE the IS300 which is a disgrace to Lexus! G30 should have a straight 6 and for goodness sake, offer AWD for us canucks!

QX4:

Give it less rugged looks, emphasis on comfort because no one will go offroading in an Infiniti...
Keep the pricing

[thearabian]

Further up, P30-T and P45:

This soprts sedan should primarily be RWD with an option for AWD. It should be as large as the I35. 2 versions should be offered, a Turbo version of the XVL's straight 6 and the ZH45 engine. It should be as equipped as a Benz E class but should have a distinct japanese styling, no more Silver Star rips please (ahem lexus).
Pricing on this car should be 35k$ for base P30-T and 45 for a fully loaded P45.

Finally, Q45:

Don't touch the interior!
Please restyle the front end, the Infiniti waterfall grille was soo nice! Make headlights swoop towards the side like the current I30 rather than a failed cross between S-class and Hyundai! Hide the Tailpipes for gods sake!
Pricing should start at 55 and up

Alas:

All Infiniti's should have a 5 speed manumatic with the sport versions only with a fully manual (S, G, P series)

Change that damn logo to "8" tilted on its side, which really means Infinity!

I dont care how good Bose is, but its name implies cheap and gimmick, please Infiniti, go with a more reputable audio supplier like Jamo or Polk.

The emphasis on Infiniti design is NO Plagiarism, until now they dont do that, keep it that way.

Change the ad campaign to appeal to a younger crowd while still offering conservative outlooks for the midprice-highprice sedans.

I like the the Infiniti Logo I think it's one of the most original in the market. Better than a big L or a giant A.

I thought the reason why they couldn't have the upside down 8 logo was because that was already taken by Infinity, the comapny that makes sound devices and stuff.

I like the water fall grill too but the logo on it is way too small you can't tell what car it is until you look at the rear or get close to the car. I sometimes mistake them for Mazdas too.
