Your next car...?

[Jesda]

I'm curious to see which new and current car J and Q owners would choose.

Lets say your Q was crushed by Godzilla. Money is no object but these are your options for a brand new flagship sedan... which would you pick?

I'd lean strongly toward the Cadillac STS.The poll didnt have enough options to add the Lincoln LS, Jaguar S-type, and Jaguar XJ, so add them if you wish.

[Mr1der]

something with a REAL (or smg )manual transmission.

James like fun luxury, not lazy luxury.

[gniknave]

Current M was my choice. Wish the FX45 with the tech package was on the list. I would have picked that

[Rex]

Where's the link for "FX"?

Seeing as it's not an option, I'll say current M45.

[elwesso]

Id want the new M, or an XLR, but since thats not there, i went for hte new Q....

OUt of all the cars that i sat in, the dash and the buttons, and everything.. was the only car where everything made sense... Everything was exactly where i expected/wanted it to be...

The interior feels eerily close to the G50.....

[Jesda]

Its an open poll. You can add anything, really.

[Falkdesigns]

I did, I addeed "Current M45"

That's my choice. That white Cedric is just banging up there!!!

[JT_MONEY_2004]

I've never drove, sat in, or even know the test comparisons, but every time i see a 7series, it makes most things around it seem real small. I vote 745/760.

Jag XJR

[SEBZX79]

I am trying to get a SRT-4 or a PT Cruiser with the Turbo motor. Price will be the one that will determine the above.

Here is a link to a nice little vid (right click and save as)

I'd take a McLaren F1 over all of em :-D Or a juiced up 96 supra!

[driverdriver]

Not in any particular order, I would purchase one of:

Lexus GS or ISJaguar XJRCurrent M45Range Rover HSE or Freelander HSEAMG tuned Mercedes Benz

[elwesso]

I think they should have kept the J30 line... Give it some new styling refinements and things like that.....

Despite what people say, i still think the J30 was a better cosmetically designed car than the Q... Just my opinion, but youd think they would put their most dynamic styling on the Q... Not to mention the bose in the J30 is (as i hear-pun intended) much better!

[vicQ45]

i'd import a brand-spankin new president straight from japan!

[jmatas]

Mmmmmmmaserati Quattroporte.

[louiegz]

I voted for the New M. That's a hot car. A choose missing from the list is the BMW 545 & M5. Except for the I-drive and the strange styling, the 545 is a great car to drive. Most likely, I will be getting a G because I'm questioning the logic in getting a $50k car to get it all beat up parked in front of my warehouse, and birds that will shat on my car.

[elwesso]

Which one will you go for.. The X, sedan (probably not the coupe)..

By then, id assume you might just keep the Q?

I’d love to get a regular G sedan with the manual transmission. I miss driving stick, but practicality and snow would probably make me choose the x with the auto. I wish they made the x in stick. Another choice would be if they ever made the Acura TL in AWD. My buddy has a TL and it drive nice, but I hate FWD with all that power.

My J still turns some heads and is most often mistaken for a Jaguar, till I tell people its an Infiniti. I recently moved into a new neighbourhood and one of the neighbours told my wife that my " garaged Jaguar is ostentatious." Talk about envy.

[AlabamaDan]

Hmmm.....that's a really hard one.......There aren't alot of cars/trucks/suvs out there I like.

For new cars, I like the QX56 and G35 Coupe, the Lexus LS and LX and SC, the 2005 Mustang........ah the Ford GT500!

I've been giving this one a lot of thought lately, as I'll likely be in the market approx a year from now.

With $ as a consideration, I'd probably go with the current M45, debadged and dropped, or a low-mileage 95Q (with all my goodies swapped over).

[NY94J30]

Im looking to trade in the J in 2-3 years. Probably looking to pick up a mid-luxury used. In no particular order:

I choose the Cadillac STS, but I'd really want the STS-V. I like the fact that the LS(1 or 2?) engine can be easily modifed

[sultan]

i was going to say 1st gen maxima wagon, but since you said new and current i'll say a carribean blue G35 coupe or one of those awd acura RL's.
