Design is good except that kinky knife-tip window.

I wonder if the platform and structural rigidity allows great tuning potential.

Pretty bold statement for a manufacturer with no history of motorsports or performance vehicles.

Ok ladies let me end this argument.

Nissan is an econobox company. Infiniti an image brand by Nissan in hope to be a true contender with the real luxury brands MB, Audi, Jaguar, BMW, & Lexus.

Hyundai is starting out in the luxury department like how Toyota did. Give them a break and stop putting them down. At least their trying and with good value.

Looks like Hyundai decided to not copy Merc for a change. This thing looks like the love child between an Audi TT and an Infiniti g37.

I always find it funny how bmw/audi/benz guys always think everything else (ie america and japan) are crappy beater cars...I mean think about it those rich bastards with ferraris/lambos/ bentleys etc... most likely say the same thing about your german rides haha. I know I would if I was a billionaire lmao. Stop the hate and appreciate lol.

Doesn't look as good as the sedan. It needs to be wider and the grill should have styling cues from the sedan.

It's just a Tiburon replacement. With that said the Tiburon was a decent car, just not in the same class as the G37.

Not bad, should do well against cars like the Mustang and Eclipse.
