I''ve heard this from two sources. One was the Infinity dealer. Then, Motor Trend September issue on 2009 new cars indicates the transmission is new as well as the engine. The VQ35HR V6 is the new engine which increases horsepower from 276 to 310. Its the same engine as in the G35 (which actually also gets a newer engine and is called G37).

So will the M45 get a new engine to or will it keep the same 325HP one. I wish they would go ahead and put the 390HP one in it.

I believe the M45 engine has not been changed in 2009. Oh well, maybe in 2010!

I just finished reading the motor trend magazine for september and the article states that the M35 will get the new motor that is in the G35 which produces about 310 HP and the 7A speed automatic transmission. The M35x will change engines as well but will keep its 5 speed trans. The M45/M45X will not have any changes at all this really sucks.

An M35 equipped with the 310 hp engine and the 7AT would be just as fast as the current M45 (5AT), while also becoming markedly more economical to boot.
 
Why continue with the production of the latter at all? Or am I missing something here?

I would hate to see them get rid of the m45 all because, some of us still love V-8's and a V-6 is really cheesy in some peoples point of view. I would totally turn to another company if they were to get rid of the V-8 M45. I mean gas is high but there are some of us out here that are still willing to pay that extra few cents to have our muscle power and luxury all in one.

Not to be picky, but those of us who drive these things ought to come to grips with the fact that the brand is Infiniti, not Infinity. Also, just because Motor Trend didn't list any changes to the M45 doesn't mean that the 7 speed may not end up there too.

Yes you have a point there. I wish they would put the 7 speed in it. Would seem very weird to only put it in the M35 RWD and not the M45 RWD also.

Someone from Infiniti consumer affairs told me that they should be on the lots in late october or early november because they maybe doing some changes to the car being that it is coming out later than what it did last year.
