    Coming To The Geneva Motor Show: The Next G

    September 2, 2012

    Infiniti is looking at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show to introduce the next-generation G. This news coming from the Infiniti's design chief Shiro Nakamura.

    Nakamura also revealed that the next G will be "much sportier and more dynamic thanthe current car". Much like the current G lineup, the next generation will include a sedan, coupe, and convertible. The next-generation G will also have gas and diesel engines from Mercedes-Benz.

    Infiniti will likely introduce the G sedan at Geneva, with the coupe and convertible following sometime later in 2013 or early 2014.

    I still dont see the Nissan based engines as being so inferior to the MB engines! Could they not afford the next gen of their own engines so they move to MB engines instead? Will they be smaller say future 2.5L DI Turbo MB V6's to replace the older NA 3.5/3.7L nissan based units so as to save both cost and fuel for the upcoming regs? This still seems like a strange move to me on their part!

    The 3.5/3.7 is aanncciieennt, one has to wonder if there simply isn't the money to develop a new V6 @ nissan.

    But buying a competitor's engine is 'giving up', IMO.

    Nissan isn't giving up the V6s.. This is for the Mercedes-Benz four-cylinders

    Well that makes even less sense then the V6's! The G model is a V6 powered model not an I4 powered one at least not yet! What wonderful I4's does MB have that are so much better then the Nissan units?---This is getting weirder by the moment!!---First I was hearing MB platforms would be used by Infinity and now its V6's and I4's! None of this makes sense unless Nissan and Infinity are in serious and unreported financial trouble!!

      I really like having a free mile-long beach less than 20 miles from home.  Went up there yesterday evening to watch the sunset and listen to the waves.   This was something I really missed when I lived in the concrete desert.  I keep folding chairs, towels, flip flops in the cars in case the need to beach happens any time..;)

      Very nice.  Count your blessings that you have a free of charge or low cost happy place. It's tough to come to the conclusion that the pinnacle of happy places for me might be being aboard an ocean liner.  LOL.  It makes for a "kaching" problem.

      Its too damned bad I do nor cheer for the Bruins anymore.    I have returned to my roots.  But this is sooooooo phoquing cool from the Bruins. I think the roles have finally reversed and I have returned home.   The Bruins will be playing second fiddle to the Habs for me.

      It is different.  I do not know which one I prefer (to look at). I enjoy looking at all kinds of car craziness things.  But  I do know that I prefer (to own or wrench on) the craziness of the 1960s and 1970s with all the different car kits like the Meyers Manx etc.   And of course all the souped up muscle cars of the day.  But Id admit today's wild ritz-ed out interior, fender flared, gull wing doored madness type of custom jobs, is  just as exciting to witness as anything else from past eras.  As an example   Plus this modern thing of restomods and protouring of classic cars of the 1950s-1970s which didnt exist even 30 years ago.     I prefer the customization of the craziness of a Meyers Manx and Brubaker Box of the 1960s and 1970s because of the genius of creating a new type of car on an existing accessible and affordable platform. But I also love the idea of modernizing a classic car of whatever era in a restomodded/protoured way. Although not as affordable. Heck, in 2025, restomodding/protouring a car is expensive AF.  But...car culture craziness hasnt faded away.  Its just...different from what it was.
