Sorta bland, but I think the main problem is the snoozer boring grey/silver paint color

Yeah, It would look awesome in a deep clearcoat purple.

I don't think it will sell well
Look at the Q45...nice car, much cheaper than the LS430, but the Lexus outsells it by around 6:1
I don't think people will cross shop the M45 with Caddy Deville or Lincoln Town Car. The avg buyer of those cars are like 70 white males who drooled about Lincoln and Caddys when they were teens.....they usually want american iron. Besides if I had 40K to spend on a car I probably wouldn't buy the best bang for the buck, but the car that I like. Infiniti needs to work the brand out so people will buy it because they want an Infiniti and not because is cheaper than Lexus.

Blech. That's so conservatively styled even I don't like it.

Looks like a Japanese 4-door Thunderbird... I'll pass. Ickth.

Since when does BMW use a V6 engine in their 530 or Lexus one in their GS300 ? Also, it says the M45 engine has 95 more HP than the GS300. At 340 HP, I think it has at least 115 HP more than the GS. Not sure about the other numbers but I think they are probably wrong as well.

Yeah, the writer is an major dumbass. Both GS300 and 530 have I6s. The other HP numbers seem to be correct. He made another mistake about the final drive ratio. The Q is getting a higher ratio for 2003 too. I got autoweek for 2 weeks and the magazine is a joke.....2/3 are just ads
