Infiniti Working On Nissan Spin-Off?
Monday, July 28th, 2008
The Japanese magazine CarTop believes that Infiniti is in the midst of producing a brand new range of sedans that will be based on the 2009 Nissan GT-R. If their sources are right then it will go on sale in 2011.
According to CarTop, the 2011 Infiniti GT-R would use a stretched version of the GT-R’s chassis, complete with its whiz-bang AWD system, a tuned version of the 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 producing nearly 500 HP, and share the same Xtronic CVT. Pricing would be about 20% higher, bringing the sedan in at around $85,000 (before speculation) on this side of the Pacific.
