Re: Nissan Design Future

I see big wheels. And a red blob. Does that make me crazy?

Re: Nissan Design Future

To me, that "red blob" overview suggests that Infiniti is considering some VERY fluid bio-inspired design elements that could include 1930's style separate hood and fenders, plus voluptuous sculpting of the body and tail end. But then again, I am a sculptor who has always seen cars AS sculptures on wheels.

The red thing looks like a Mazda to me.

Re: Nissan Design Future

Look more like Taffy than a car design to me. If Nissan is designing a candy-covered car with inflatable cotton candy, then count me in.
