"Infiniti sold its most new vehicles yet in the first half of 2015 - 103 500, which is 13% more than in the same period of 2014 and included record sales here in South Africa."



I still hardly see them in Cape Town.

Last week I did see this huge menace on the roads...

How the Infinti update in your area?

They have the ugliest fake chromed cars I have seen in a long time and at a big premium.

 

[vaultedskies]

that is one ugly car...! although I did quite like the Infinitis I saw in the US.

I'm also in CPT and have only noticed one so far, in the parking garage at work.

Based in Bryanston, have only see one Infiniti, a Q60 in traffic.

Not a fan tbh.

I have seen some of their sedan's at car rental places at OR Tambo, probably a Q50. Looks quite nice. Wonder how many of their sales were to rental companies?

I was wondering where this brand comes from, now I see it's Nissan's luxury brand. So quality should be decent, but they are quite expensive.

It kinda looks like a Chevy PT Cruiser that's holding in a fart....

They are horrendously overpriced, and none of them are all that attractive in my opinion.

Not a fan.

Haven't seen one on the road, here in Joburg.

I've seen a number of them around JHB. One model of sedan and one model of SUV.

Infiniti tried to pull a Lexus and failed miserably.

Would rather have a Q50 than a C or CLA, which look as if they were overdone in the microwave, and are so clearly built to a (low) price.

Ftfy.

I don't think they have failed. In many parts of the world they are doing well

 

[satanboy]

I have never seen one on the road.

Got into the driver seat of one in Canal Walk Shopping Centre. Was a stunner.

Seen a couple on the roads here in JHB...not many though. I'm sure they are awesome inside (they are luxury cars after all) but they sure are FUGLY!

 

[Jola]

... they sure are FUGLY!

That ^

 

[WaxLyrical]

That monstrosity looks like a Ssanyong with cheap makeup.

Yes, yes they are. But the new C Class is worse. It's how cheap exec cars have to be apparently.
