The new infinity M is out, 330 hp, could this be a sign of a coupe to come.... possibly the next skyline?

I think it shows Infiniti is becoming a high ranking division inside of Nissan.

The new M45 has already won comparison tests in both Motor Trend and Car and Driver.
An M45 Coupe would be much too big to be the GT-R. The sedan already weighs a bit over two tons, and that's without an awd system.
However, that's not to say there won't be an M45 Coupe. There is supposed to be a new sports car coming that will slot between the 350Z and GT-R. I'd be willing to bet it's an M45 Coupe.
That might seem like too many Coupes for Infiniti, with the G35 Coupe still in the lineup, but look at it this way:
People have been worried about the US GT-R being loaded down with luxury items. If an M45 Coupe is released, it can cover that territory and go after the likes of BMW's 6-series and MB's high-end CLKs and low-end SL/CL models.
With the sports luxury coupe area taken care of, the GT-R can afford to be more of a hardcore sports car, maybe along the lines of the next BMW M3 CSL.

It is a luxury sedan! Luxury sedans DO tend to be a bit BORING! My gosh what is up with you guys. Anything that even hints at a Skyline and you wet yourselves. It is a really nice car.....but one my father in law would drive long before I would be interested in it.
It AINT a GTR.....
