Davvero una valida e bella alternativa all’ Audi A6, Mercedes CLASSE E e Bmw SERIE 5, anche se nei confronti di queste non vanta la stessa artricolazione di motorizzazioni. Ma alla fine quello che conta è la versione diesel!! Se davvero dovessero presentare una versione motorizzata diesel, come pare che sia, e con un prezzo “giusto”, la M farebbe molta concorrenza ai soliti tedeschi e alla Jaguar XF e Volvo S 80. Io personalmente la trovo molto interessante e un modello diesel lo prenderei seriamente in considerazione al momento di sostituire l’auto, perchè la M fa parte del segmento di mercato a cui faccio riferimento, avendo posseduto negli ultimi anni una Citroen XM, una A.R. 166 e una Jaguar, che guido tutt’ora!

For the luxury market the Infiniti brand is definitely a worthy opponent against the likes of Lexus and Honda's Acura, BMW and Benz. Infiniti has developed a reputation for producing high end edgy designs often equipped with bigger engines than their counterparts, the M and G lines are top selling luxury sedans in US. Now for the M'sian market it's all about if they can wrangle enough market share from traditional luzury brand such as Benz and BMW, if they cant then it's not worth bringing in the models!

Infiniti should be a level higher than Honda/Toyota.. if they bring it here, they won't put in Nissan showroom. karl said,
