NICO members invited to Infiniti M unveiling at Pebble Beach

[szh]

Hi, all.

I know this has been mentioned before, but figured I would add some details.

NICO and its members have been invited to attend the new 2011 Infiniti M "unveliing" at Pebble Beach. Please check this out if you are able to go to the Concours event there. I am going to try to attend, but doubt if I can make it.

My request: if someone can attend, take pictures, etc., and do a write-up for us here, that would be awesome!

The following was sent to Greg, NICO's CEO.

I came across your forum through online research, and since several forum members have a passion for Infiniti, I thought this might be of interest to you.

You and your forum members are invited to join other Infiniti owners August 14 at 9:30PM ET / 6:30 PM PT to watch as the all-new 2011 Infiniti M is unveiled. You and your readers can watch live at http://www.infinitiusa.com/abo....html as the completely redesigned 2011 Infiniti M is shown for the first time at the prestigious 2009 Concours dí Elegance event in Pebble Beach. The sedan won’t actually be there as Infiniti will become the first automaker to use virtual technology mapping to project the car on a full-size clay model of the Infiniti flagship sedan to simulate the effect.

Please feel free to post the link for your readers to join us as well for this exciting event. Thanks for reading,Gordon DymowskiOn behalf of Infiniti

I like the "Infiniti flagship sedan" recognition of the M. Since the Q is not available at this time, it is the M that holds that title.

I think they meant to watch it virtually on that link that was posted. It'll be a live video feed that we can all watch - but if someone can post a link to get tickets to that show, then I'll check flights tomorrow!!!!

True! Not inexpensive for the full-blown stuff.

But, General Admission tickets (without the extras) are $150.

Hey, Nico folks are not the General Admission trash. We are definitely "the full blown stuff." Just look @ some of our posts...

Hmmmmmm......the projection equipment might be more interesting than the clay model.

I have to admit that certainly don't plan to spend $500 ... that will go towards my next set of tires instead.
