OP you are spot on. I used to love Nissan and owned a few 1995 Nissan Maxima, 2007 350z, 2008 350z. The VQ at the time (late 90s / 2000s) was a phenomenal motor and was ahead of the competition in terms of power. While the VQ motor was used for many years, they constantly upgraded it unlike the EJ257 motor in my STI. However, post G35 / G37 350z/370z FM years, I agree the company went to crap. I rented a Q60 and completely agree with your take on the interior software / design.
It's unfortunate because I thought Nissan/Infiniti was making a comeback in the 2000s post bankruptcy with the FM chassis. Since then they've lost their touch and at this point I don't see any of their cars having the success of Toyota / Honda / Subaru.
I was a Nissan guy like I am a BMW guy. But if BMW keeps up their direction I may be neither haha.
