 Finally! SOmething to compete with the A8, 7, S Class, LS, XJ, etc...
Interesting to see how close the production version will come to the fuga...hopefully the interior wont be cheapened TOO much, although i know it wont be as gorgeous as the concept.

Many people have already been to M45/M35 "Car Clinics", and the Nissan Fuga looks exactly how the next M45/M35 is described to be. NICE! Love it!

Hmmm, Nissan was supposed to debut 2 more concepts. One is the new President. That leaves 1 left. Can we say GTR?

Better chance that it's the GTR than the FX. The Tokyo Motor Show comes only once every 2 years. Nissan needs a flagship.I hope it has the star wars head and taillights of the Fuga.

And thus through the development of the Effis, Nissan has finally won the race to build the first car whose headlights touch the A-pillar. Toyota hangs its head in shame. "We thought the new Solara would hold them off."

Fuga--M45 or Q45 size?That would make a great Q45 replacement. The current one is nowhere near competitive, in the US market at least.

Actually, some Turkish carmaker showed some Smart-wannabe at the Frankfurt (or Geneva?) show a couple years ago that had A-pillar-stretch headlights. Also, Mitsubishi's '01 Spaceliner concept had superstretch headlights as well.

Fuga will be the replacement for the Infiniti M... is that what I gather? The Fuga looks nice... but the M is pretty sweet... it's soooooooooo bad ass right now...
