I don't either. I can, however, recognize success where success is due.
That sounds less factual and more opinionated.
I take it you've never heard of the JX35 then? Which is, by the way, the first clean sheet vehicle Infiniti put out since Nissan heavily adopted the CVT in MY2008.
Not with the same powertrain in the current G37s, it's not. And guess what - that's the only confirmed engine in the car besides the "in the works" hybrid.
I'll tell you what... I'll leave you to  from Nissan's and you can leave me to my own educated opinions regarding NNA's approach to "reinvigorating" its product portfolio.
For future reference, abstain from posting a news scoop on a product if you're scared of the opinions it might generate... on a form of social media that is designed to discuss opinions. |
1. As stated. I said if Infiniti ever used the CVT on a vehicle it would be a passenger vehicle. the Jx is NOT made for any kind of performance driving.
Do you consider the JX performance? Cuz if you do? I'd like to sell you my Winnebego sport? It's got all the sporty bells and whistles...
BMW opinions were made by many reviewers since 2008. though the M series holds it's title. The standard 3 series has marginally inferior performance to the G37s but the 3 series is agreed by most reviewers to have better interior.
The only advertised engines for the Q50 is the 3.5 hybrid and 3.7DI on the infiniti website so where do you get it's just a possible development? Cars.com has it listed from the auto show to have two engine options coming this summer. Thats a little soon for development???? lol. I call BS on that development shyt.

I recognize ford as having made some good strides over the last 3 years. i acknowledge the CVT in the juke as a disappointment. no word on the sentra SE-R is kinda unnerving and I would like to see more in terms of what can be done with the hatchback version of the versa. Nissan has neglected that.
I cant really swing on nissans
when you're swing so hard on mine... lol
As far as the 7AT, you started off thinking the Z had a CVT... lol
The 7At shifts in 300 milliseconds. A feat for a slushbox and SRM was invented on the G37 automatic known as downshift rev-matching. You can hate all day. I've test driven or rented most cars under $50k. I know this much.
2.The Z is still a viable entry in the sports arena..
3. Put a Nissan vehicle up in the air and you will find more high quality components than MOST SUB-PREMIUM car brands. INCLUDING FORD. I know where money goes into with Nissan. And im very familiar with ford. While ford builds an excellent product. In overall quality. Nissan still supercedes ford.
