No, it’s not an Infiniti, and yes, it is Chinese. Chery’s M14 is testing in UK, reports China Car Times, where Lotus is reportedly helping tune the engine and suspension settings.

G37 is fugly, they should've ripped off of the G35, which is quite elegant. It's like they took the G35, punched it in the face, and bumped the model number up by 2.

Scion tC with funky headlights. Whatever, car makers have been ripping off each other for years. People used to say the same thing about Hyundai.

3-On-The-Tree @Peter. “ Univesal Background ChecksThe shooter was definitely a Republican. Democrats do Drive by shootings.Second Assassination attempt. 3rd times a charm”. So you advocating assassination and someone getting killed?
Argistat On this car, like most cars these days, if you want the higher trim level to get some option you really want, you're also sold a useless panoramic glass roof and large (not good for rough roads we have) diameter wheels. I'm also not interested in a turbo, which rules out many vehicles in the market today.
KOKing I have a ~20yr old oil lube 20gal Porter Cable-branded Devilbiss, but the capability and convenience of battery-powered tools these days makes a major investment in air harder to justify for a fair chunk of people.
Ajla The turbo-4 change doesn't really bother me here as the big CUV triplets from GM aren't really "fun" vehicles so a tug boat engine seems fine as a long as it is reliable. Now if they do the same with the XT6 or on the XT5/Blazer then I'll complain a bit.
Irvingklaws Just replaced a 15+ year Craftsman air compressor with this one (h**ps://www.harborfreight.com/26-gallon-175-psi-ultra-quiet-oil-free-vertical-shopauto-air-compressor-57336.html) from Harbor Freight. So far it's been great. Much quieter than the craftsman. The bleed valve can actually be accessed and purged easily. Relatively inexpensive considering it's apparent solid construction, capacity, and capabilities. Long term durability might be another issue, but so far so good. I usually oil my air tools when I put them away, so they're ready to go straight away when I want to use them.
