Default Nissan / Infiniti seem to be doing well!

Yesterday around 7:00pm, I drove on highway 7 from Bullock to Woodbine, and I saw a total of 7 350Z's. This morning, on highway 7 between Kennedy and Langstaff I saw a total of 9 G35 Coupes...

These cars look like they're going to be really popular/common... at least in the northern end of the city.

I didn't see any S2000's however...

Tell me about it.

I've seen more G35 coupe's in a week then I have seen S2K's in my lifetime. Have to say that exhaust note is unbelieveable.

Infiniti's really turned it around....but I don't see many FX's at all though.

They have to work the same high-value concept on their Q series now.

But the G35's blue (light metallic one) is really UGLY.

Funny you should say that. I think Nissan is finally figuring out that this IS important. Vince sent me an article about the Nissan Titan, in the article they made special note that the test mule was ultra quite. All the journalists made note about the lack of noise from the monster V8 would not cut it in the North American marketplace. The next test mule that was tested had a nice deep throaty rumble.
