Default Gawd - this thing is FUGLY!

I was checking out edmunds and saw this pic of the Infiniti M45 sedan.

This thing is FUGLY! Is this really supposed to be a 5 series competitor.

Edmunds preview

I agree. It looks like it took a dive from the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.

That looks like a Mercury Marauder/1997 Q-45 hybrid.

Interior is nice, though.

well, earlier spy test pic of E60 5 series, it does looks like the 7 series (a tad smaller), but there's rumor that BMW is going to fix the rear end of the new 5, since alot of people criticize the Bangle-Butt

does this mean we'll be bombarded with Q45 ads (like we are with 7 series) now.

ps. This makes the 7 series looks kinda nice!
