I imagine that that engine will be tuned up or down depending on the model. Say what you will about Infiniti but that powertrain is a beast. They're now going to put it in a tuxedo but it will still be a beast. Nobody's going to be laughing when it comes to serious driving of these new cars.

I'm sure we'll be called stupid again, but Infiniti's woes cannot be solved by stuffing the GTR engine into their ugly line of cars.
