Infiniti's Interesting Moves (Nomenclature, Essence)

The concept looks good, the spy pics look silly, and it all comes down to the slope of the nose…

The concept has a wide center opening allowing the lower scoops to be bigger, at the cost of a less aerodynamic hood line, like the new domestic pony cars (which everyone generally likes too)

The moment someone decided to change the nose, it became like Bing says, just another forgettable sedan

Focus nose, BMW sides, Genesis tail… bleh

The concept looks so nice, but then the actual car just falls short. They tweeked everything just a little bit from the concept and it really lost the WOW factor.
