When I hear reviews saying. It's no BMW, I just have to dismiss them. Especially when the BMW is behind both Cadillac and AMG in performance.

I know the infiniti lacks and DAS was the worst idea for the Q50/60 variant. They should started that with the big car. Perfected it, then moved it into the sport entry.

But it seemed like the infiniti engine is a true winner but the author rather have spent more time talking about infiniti's identity crisis over giving REAL IMPRESSIONS on the engine.

I agree the Q series is not the most exciting looking car since other cars have introduced but... I would like some more objectivity from a performance aspect.
Dude, real talk about that. I was so pissed when the dude is like "it's no BMW." **** off with that ****. The dude sounded like he just didn't want to drive the car and that he's leased a 3-series all of his life. I get that you like what you like, but that review was garbage.

I would like to see the BMW fanboys answer me when I ask them what BMW has for $48k that would roast the Q50 RS.

Truthfully, even some of the purest BMW dudes are saying that the current M3/4 are among the softest performance cars BMW has released. I mentioned it in another thread, but a Cadillac ATS-V wins for me over an M3. The Mercedes AMG C63 would as well.

Autoblog did the best job reviewing the car. I'll dig up the review and post it - the guy that drove it gave thorough feedback. He wasn't swinging from the nuts of the car, but he wasn't stuck in his last BMW review either.
