I don't know if I would call it a "radical" new direction, but the 350Z and G35 are nice cars.

They have done pretty well with the exterior, but the new interiors look cheap and unrefined... they also have over-done it with their workhorse engine... Nissan is becoming like old GM with the use of the same engine in every model... and their build quality has gone down the shitter in the past few years...

Style: yes
Engine: no
Interior: yes, but could use better materials to make it not look so cheap
Build quality: no


Infinity, however, has nicer interiors than it's Nissan counterparts, but the least they could do is make the interior at least GM quality (and that's not asking much...)

The VQ is a great engine, and they should be able to use it in their vehicles, so I don't think they are over-doing it. Where's your proof that build quality has gone down?

Infiniti, Nissan's luxury brand, is spelled with an I, not Y, moron.
