Nissan to launch Infiniti in Western Europe
According to Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. CEO Carlos Ghosn, the automaker is prepping to launch diesel and gasoline
variants of its Infiniti models in Western Europe in 2008. The development came as the company announced its 2005 fiscal
year financial results. The move comes after Infiniti announced it will be sold in Russia this year and Ukraine and
China in 2007. Ghosn said that the Infiniti brand is the fastest-growing luxury nameplate in the United States,
though the lack of new models prompted a drop in profits for the 2005 fiscal year.

All thoese Infities (perhaps with the exception of the FX) are just _butt_ugly_
I mean BMW's 5-series isn't a beauty either, but it's a damn BMW, with many loyal customers, superb technology and a well-recognized brand.
Nissan, believe me. It'll be a desaster in europe when you'll be trying to compete with Audi A6, BMW 3/5, Mercedes or even Opel.
This is so freakin ridiculous...

and lack of new models will continue the drop if they don't do something fast. The new G35 is a half baked refresh and the FX hasn't truly been redesigned since it came to life. The new M is okay but the Q is trotting around in it's same glory for well over five years and the QX56... just look at CR. They should have put out the refreshed G35 coupe this year with a convertible option, completely redesigned the Q and made more significant changes to the FX series.

This photo is one of the most beautiful coupes I've ever seen.
In terms of purity of form, I think only the BMW 6 rivals this car.
Will you post a link to more photos?
Thanks.

Are you kidding me? Beauty is subjective but I believe Infinity has got beauty and brawns in every one of its vehicles, especially the ultra-sexy G35.

That is one beautifully styled car. I wonder if the Italians or California Americans designed it for Infinity. Just awesome!
