2005 Infiniti M35/M45 by jms9

Nissan has released some pictures of the Fuga, the replacement for the Cedric/Gloria, which we know as the Infiniti M45. The new car is based on the FM platform (shared with the G35/FX/350Z). It is much sleeker than the car it replaces, and it definitely has the best interior Nissan has ever designed. There are some design cues from other Infiniti vehicles, like the FX-like grille and the G35-like tail lights, but this car has its own style. It has all the elements necessary to be a huge success.
Here are some pictures.

It's not bad looking until you look at the back. The front view, while attractive, looks like a Ford Mondeo. But I guess anything is better than the current M45.

This is a damn fine looking car. The interior is just about the most beautiful interior I have seen in recent memory of ANY car no matter what the price. The exterior is also exceptionally sharp looking to me (I also like the G35). After seeing this, I will add the M45 to my short list of potential cars that I will replace my current one with in 2005 (Cadillac STS, Jaguar XJ8 and Mercedes E500).
 
Of course the production interior won't be nearly so nice, but if it looks half as good as this show car, I will be very impressed. I just hope the performance aspects of the car don't fall short of its incredible good looks.

Note it's still a Nissan in Japan. I thought Infiniti is trying to get established over there. What does the rear plate say? I can't read it.
 
Pictures can be deceiving, but it does look fantastic!

Awesome, aggressive yet elegant looking car.
The front end has that bold, imposing, powerful styling I like. Autospies has some good pics. of the M also. This car will be big trouble for BMW's 5 series as was intended.

Nissan has no plans to expand the Infiniti name outside of the U.S., the only market where the Infiniti name exists. At the Tokyo Show, the Exec VP of global sales and marketing for Nissan said he would like to make Infiniti global someday but that's not a reality due to regulations and the fact it would cost a lot of money.

As a BMW E39 (5series) owner who had planned on trading on the new E60, but was so put off by the styling and materials quality that I won't, the new M45 will go on my list. I plan to wait for the '05 models to come out anyway and plan to look at the STS, New Lexus GS, Audi A6, and now the M45.

M45 lack of "instant" acelleration by candidph
Nov 13, 2003 (12:27 am)

When the M45 cruises at a steady speed on a freeway, and "instant" acelleration is needed to change lanes or merge with traffic, there is a two to three second delay before the vehicle responds to the depressed acellerator. Is there a FIX for this possibly dangerous problem?

M45 cruise control & collision avoidance sensor by candidph
Nov 13, 2003 (12:39 am)
Reply
The collision-avoidance sensor is a dangerous device, because it may cause rear-end collisions, as follows: When the cruise control is ON, so is the sensor. When the M45 approches a large vehicle - such as a 'semi' - in an adjacent freeway lane - especially if its an inside curve -the vehicle will suddenly and severely decellerate, with following vehicles barely avoiding a collision - especially at high speeds.
Is there a way to disable this so-called safety device, or at least narrow its beam?
