I think I remember in the car mags, before Infiniti came out that the Infiniti logo was going to be the infinity symbol. The sideways 8. I think they made a better choice.
Nissan Motor Co. is a full-line automobile manufacturer, ranking second in Japan and among the major global automotive companies in terms of annual vehicle production. Nissan’s Infiniti brand represents its luxury automobile offering.
The new logo expresses the concept of the open road traveling toward infinity. It also suggests Mount Fuji, a Japanese icon.
When Nissan decided to enter the American luxury automobile market, it needed a unique presence to stand out among competitors and distinguish itself from the rest of the Nissan line

Fuji Developed a complete visual system for all marketing materials and dealership signage Partnered with advertising and public relations agencies for a comprehensive identity launch » see news release

Good stuff. I love the Infiniti logo. Simple, and yet instantly recognizable, and as noted below, it always entailed a lot of meaning in a simple form.

Haven't read the articles yet, but I always thought it was a stylized rendition of a road, "leading to infinity".
That's what I thought, too.
