Infiniti Debuts Dramatic Coupe Concept At 2006 North American International Auto Show

Infiniti today unveiled a dramatic new concept vehicle, the Infiniti Coupe Concept, at the 2006 North American International Auto Show. Infiniti also showed the new 2006 FX luxury crossover SUV, which has been refined with exterior and interior enhancements and greater differentiation between the V8-powered FX45 and V6-equipped FX35 models.

The Coupe Concept continues the Infiniti tradition of merging design and performance. It takes Infiniti’s vibrant design vocabulary, which has helped establish Infiniti as one of the most dynamic brands in the luxury market, and elevates it to the next level.

Among the Coupe Concept’s exterior design features are a full-length glass panel roof, modulated front fenders and hood, deep front spoiler and large projector headlights, polished bare metal-look paint, compact camera outside rearview mirrors, hidden door handles and large 20-inch, 9-spoke painted aluminum-alloy wheels.

The Coupe Concept interior combines a performance-inspired cockpit with a luxurious passengers’ space featuring a “double wave” instrument panel design, with large, violet-color gauge illumination and a dramatic, full-length center console. Specially textured aluminum accents project the image of traditional Japanese “Washi” paper, providing an added sense of warmth and crispness.

“The Infiniti Coupe Concept embraces the continuous advancement of Infiniti design with a unique combination of passion, imagination and creativity,” said Mark Igo, vice president and general manager, Infiniti.

Igo also provided an update on Infiniti business issues, including the fourth straight year of sales records. In 2005, Infiniti sold an all-time high of 136,401 units, an increase of 4.5 percent over calendar year 2004 sales.

“Infiniti sales have been strong across the entire model range,” said Igo. “We’re especially pleased with the acceptance in the marketplace of the all-new 2006 Infiniti M.”

Envisioning the next level of interior design, where all passengers will be provided with equal comfort, roominess and amenities, the Kuraza is marked by six doors – with the 3rd row doors on each side operating from rear hinges – and three rows of large, luxurious side-by-side pairs of individual seats. Kuraza also combines traditional Japanese design cues and extensive use of natural materials.

I like, any idea on when its supposed to be released?

And no maxipad in this one right?

 

looks like the current gen with M headlights

 

Looks a bit longer too...

But is there a maxipad in this one or not? I will not buy a car that comes with a spare maxipad in the glove compartment.

 

looks almost the same

 

Wow that car is gorgeous.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+1

but the little things like enclosed mufflers, are pretty hot

 

WOW JUST WOW!

 

There are a lot of subtle changes that as a whole really change the personality of the car. Like the more sloping rear, the more sloped front end, the shape of the taillights, the more predominant fender flairs, etc. It looks great, and that interior is fucking gorgeous.

 

This part here (Where the hatch curves down to the back) reminds me a little of the late '90s Acura CL and the mid-90s Infinitis. Yuck. And I hate enclosed tailpipes.
