Looks like it was designed by someone who took far too much LSD IMO...

Looks really good

OBI_agent · 08-15-2009, 10:35 AM

Looks good.....but could have been better.

And any details on the M56 spec......and why aren't they using the FX50 engine....hmmm!

DASHOCKER · 08-15-2009, 03:16 PM

This new M looks hot inside & out!

TK-421 · 08-15-2009, 03:56 PM

Do not want

Kensta335 · 08-15-2009, 04:18 PM

I like it. Looks better than the current model.

BForbes · 08-15-2009, 04:43 PM

I like it. 400hp aint nothing to sneeze at especially when it will cost as much as a 535i.

NewSong · 08-15-2009, 04:43 PM

Too feminine.

Draman · 08-15-2009, 04:52 PM

Interior looks good but the exterior is too reminiscent of the G sedan. The current M looks like nothing else, the bold styling makes it somewhat special.

I'm thinkin' copyright infringement - "M" should be reserved for real "M's"

Artmasterx · 08-15-2009, 05:37 PM

I like it pretty well (it looks like it is the sport version in the pictures), but then again I kind of like the look of the new Maxima as well which it is very similar to (as long as the maxima has the lip spoiler, without that it looks wrong).

catch · 08-15-2009, 09:32 PM

pretty sick looking!

datbimmerdoe · 08-15-2009, 09:32 PM

I'll reserve my judgment until I see it and drive it.

iatacs19 · 08-15-2009, 09:43 PM

Sorry, Infiniti... that's a FAIL.

Epacy2 · 08-16-2009, 02:02 AM

Infiniti is killing it on the interior. Not nuttie about the sheetmetal.
I thought BMW won a lawsuit against Infiniti on the use of the letter "M" and was supposed to stop using it. Anyone else remember that?

TwinTurboXI · 08-16-2009, 02:50 AM

It looks exactly like a Maxima this time.

lonestar22 · 08-16-2009, 05:33 AM

while lets totally copy the new XF's rear end. all cars look the same these days

radix · 08-16-2009, 06:44 AM

I think it looks fantastic, save the grill. The grill just looks kind of cartoonish and bloated IMO, and doesn't bring the front end together properly.

7/10
