How about they just put the G on a severe diet and give us another 40 ft lbs of torque?

I'd be very content with a 300/300 G weighing 3000lbs.

Oh and getting 2 more MPG!!!

I don't think it would solve the problem. As you can see Nissan gain some. Probably due to the eco box sale. I am not sure but they probably sell a bunch of Versas. If they came out with something more fuel efficient probably people would buy more. Just look at our forum. 5% of the questions about how to save some money on the fuel.

I'm with SVT, great time to buy if you have the money. Especially true with houses. My buddy just bought a house and in his words, he has no right to live in the neighborhood he is in. He under bid the house by 70 grand and they took the offer!! had been on the market for over a year, vacant.

Yeah, I saw the sales report for Nissan/Infiniti as well. The EX was the top seller.

Today I saw that there are thoughts of making a 4-door version of the GT-R and badging it as an Infiniti.

the EX! Wow, just think the G is a much better deal.The salesman at Infiniti told me it was targeted at women. Had a nice interior, but not much behind the front seats. Pretty sure it was more $$$ & less mpg. Oh well....

Sorry, the EX was the best selling truck/SUV. Everything else in Infiniti's line dropped a minimum of 17% from a year ago except for the G37 coupe, which rose 50%.
