I think Infiniti was giving away their QX60.

Infiniti definitely needs to find their footing, they only managed to beat Lincoln for the year.

Acura and Cadillac outsold them, while not by much, I still feel Infiniti has potential, yet majorly lack consistency.

Ive always suspected the Renault alliance was more beneficial to Renault than Nissan.

Nissan is 60% of the profit generation with Mitsubishi and Renault the other 40% and when you pull out Mitsubishi, Renault is a dead automaker. Japan needs to get Renault out of Nissan.

Infiniti is another example of alpha-numeric nomemclature run amok. I could not tell you what a QX60, QX70 or QX is. I believe they are mostly rebadged Nissans.

This is more of De Nysschen's idiocy. Infiniti should use names:

infiniti Skyline
Infiniti Summit
and so on
