Car Tech - 2013 Infiniti M56

[@chazz8541]

Does anyone have a Cadillac photo on the staff of the video?

[@prestonjoslin2309]

yeah...

[@jayjacobs7306]

Yeah

[@thearousedeunuch]

We all do. CNET got the thumbnail wrong.

[@kb0x]

YEEEEP

[@LocoMan123]

Yah

[@vk45de54]

It's not just a DOHC V8. The vk56vd has variable valve lift and duration and direct injection.

[@fishjohn014]

so vtec and not from the 70's

[@shootunderpar4736]

John Fisher you’re forgetting the fact it’s engineered to power twice the vtec power at the same time hence being a high rev V8. The VK series engines has to hands down be one of the best V8’s coming from Japan, that and the Toyota 2UR-GSE which comes in the Lexus IS-F which I use to own. But I’m much happier with the similarities found in the VK series for half the cost.

[@PROJECTIRONWOLF1]

@@shootunderpar4736 nah 1uz is the true best japanese v8

[@AlphaDino]

I rather hear someone who has the balls to point out the negatives. shows that he is unbiased. If I wanna hear all the good things about the car I'd go to the dealership and listen to the salesperson. Also, it's the negatives that you often don't realize and when you buy the car it sets in and by that time too late.

[@MrRicearonie]

Hey CNet, just to let you know the thumbnail for this video is for an ATS and you might want to change it. But who am I kidding, you won't see this and change it. But if you could prove me wrong, that would be great.

[@XDMIIIIIIIII]

They never did lol

[@mencho888]

7 years strong.

[@yoitsnick1497]

4:40 the accuracy in that statement😳

[@cheffington999]

Why is he complaining that the car has a v8

[@mlee1101_]

Forreal. What's wrong with a V8?

[@microminiskirt]

I test drove a 2012 Mustang GT with 3.73 rear end and a 2013 Mustang GT with 3.31 rear end both of which were 6 spd. manuals. . Both of these 5.0 engines with different rear ends love to rev. I had heard that the manual transmission was made in China and that it was giving people lots of trouble with not being able to get it in gear. switching over to Redline Synthetic MTL solved that issue and made the shifting the smoothest it has ever been even better than from factory.

[@CJ-mm4pe]

yeah whats with the caddy?

[@ProgressingStepxStep]

I'm surprised he reviewed this car again, especially since there hasn't been any changes to the model in it's 2 year model life.

[@bitemyshinnymetalass1569]

Just found 2 for sale in California for under 20k. How have the mighty fallen.

[@rawn4203]

Yeah thats what happpens when cars get older and are driven - they depreciate.

[@sydjaguar]

That V8 is probably the best in the biz. Sorry Cooley.

[@Jason.W.]

Why is there a Cadillac on the thumbnail (from channel page)?

[@microminiskirt]

There is a big difference between the 3.31 and 3.73. If I got the GT it would have to have the 3.73 but I don't think I would want the trac pac option and I believe that the 3.73 only comes with trac pac option on Must. GT. I don't want a car with a stiff ride as I already have one. Your SRT does ride smoother than the 2012 Must. GT you had?

[@microminiskirt]

which Mustang GT what year did you have with what equipment? I am sure the Challenger has a better ride on less than perfect roads than the Mustang suspension.

[@letsgowarriors30]

What about all the option conflicts?

[@BMan100]

2012 GT 6spd, it's in my posted videos. it's about the same because of the larger sidewalls on the tires, being 18's and not the 19's with the brembos, the Canadian trim models are a bit different. but i'm starting to have troubles with my gear box now, it's locking me out at times, and the clutch is getting heavy, even more thant he Challenger.

[@andrefrbk]

2:49 WOW, for a second it looked like the car was about to flip over haha. Funny.

[@BMan100]

well I'm trying to get my SRT back at you read this post. in terms of ride, they are about the same due to the Tires on the mustang having more sidewall , 50's vs 45's and 18's vs 20's only on realy rutted roads you notice the axle hop. they have improved the mustang very much but it's just not a car for me. clutch throw is too long for my liking and it makes my left ankle hurt. SRT wan't like that only pain was geting in after a long day at work and then not wanted to get out of it after lol

[@skirmich]

They dont use a V8 in japan simply because is forbidden.. Japan Gas Prices are ridiculous and they have a law that prohibits high displacement engines in consumer cars, In a way they are thinking years ahead but Mucho years ahead. Until the US runs out of gas, The V8 is not going anywhere here.

[@artvandelayimports]

skirmich but that's just a limit on displacement. Nothing about cylinders

[@RossMKF1]

No with most options on a 5 series 550 it cost around 68 grand

[@kokildeb]

Cooley is BACK

[@xxthehuskycaboosexx]

Brian cooly is one of the best car reviewers along with the guy from Rosenthal auto!

[@cruisertechgt]

ats?

[@BMan100]

mine is a 3.31 as well, I'm asking to the dealer to see if I can get my Challenger back, if I can with in reason i'm going for it. hell or high water I am going to get my SRT Back

[@MichaelNNguyen]

I'm with you on that.

[@thecarboy95]

0:30 anyone noticed the old CNET logo?

[@BMan100]

I'm trying to get my srt8 392 challenger back..I miss it too much over the Mustang Gt I got in it's place

[@srincomptr]

the Q50 is the replacement for the G37.

[@pqnguyen]

Please review the Infiniti Q50!

[@eg619rip]

Cooley is back!

[@Johncarson9113]

Infiniti & Mercedes are now partners so an array of new engines and models are to be expected by 2014. The Infiniti M will recieve a midlife cycle facelift before its redesign in 2015. Its refresh should improve the M drastically, more to par with the new Q50. Also with the new Infiniti nomenclature the Q70 aka the "M37" also hints that there will be room for a new Full size Flag Ship sedan to comepete with the Mercedes S-class & BMW 7 series, called the Q80 sedan since the QX56 is now the QX80.

[@khunopie]

Brian Cooly is the OPRAH of Automotive Tech! Simply the BEST! Oprah F'n Cooly!

[@TammamOnCars]

why the thumbnail is a Cadillac!

[@stephencannon3140]

I might be one of the few but I actually like the design both interior and exterior. Modern technology (for the time frame) but not over the top like Let’s say pretty much most European vehicles. Center console is clean and sleek and the space is used for items that are functional instead of just looking nice. Perfect example of Function ahead of form. The major system controllers are out of the way for the most part. Modern (again for the time frame) styling and excellent features but also again not crazy like refrigerated glove compartment, 83 way massaging seats etc.... I just got a 2015 Q70L (M37/M56 became the Q70/Q70L for 2014-2019.....same design just new naming convention for Infiniti. 3.7 has plenty of power but I wouldn’t say no to a 5.6 if it presented itself.

[@dwade3302]

seen this car upclose and instantly fell in love with it but I will never own it lol

[@peter21d]

Test drove a 2012 M56x recently and was very surprised when I drove it aggressively that it didn't have the power I expected. Might have been something wrong with the one I drove. My G37 is a lot faster. Disappointing because I really want one but the 420 hp was nowhere to be found.

[@queeze_e_3895]

It’s the shift points that stay even when manually shifting, I own both M56 and G37 and my G is far slower and it got even faster since I had the shift points moved back and the limited raised to 7500

[@blacuraRL]

COOLEY is the MAN, enjoyable review as always. Legend.

[@dano660top]

Right?

[@shannonwilliams9055]

You will never be able to buy a car that simply has it all, which sucks. There should be a car that simply has it all!

[@nismokid2533]

This clown points out negatives as if the competition can offer anything better. It out performs all the euros in its class - why didn't you point that out.? I drove my dads 550i and it was a bit bare interior, lazy engine and stupid expensive maitainance costs. Recently bought this car and it's better in every way. You explained/compared this car to its competitors so we can make sense of your demeaning attitude towards this car.

[@wsijtsma]

No aps. That is actually and advantage. A lot of people don't have or want a smart phone because they don't want to be ripped of by the provider.

[@Adetokunbo03]

I love the V8

[@Johncarson9113]

The M56 is priced on par with its rivals. All of its competitors like the BMW 550i, Mercedes E550 & Audi S6 are priced well above $60,000 not to mention the new Audi S6 with the same 420 HP demands a starting price of $72K. I think in terms if pricing its well justified. Its not the pricing thats the issue, because for this segment $60K- $70K is normal. Its the car that needs a refresh, thats the problem. It fine but it could be alot better. The Infiniti M is looking dated compared to its rivals

[@megatronsean9987]

Every time he says "long in the tooth" in reference to the tech a car has, it make me think twice before purchasing.

[@ThousanWhite]

I love the Infiniti M56, but it's due for a refresh.

[@FxNitr0]

no, i agree with you on that

[@redriver15262]

the back looks like a jaguar......

[@onDishez]

That's a Cadillac in the thumbnail please rectify

[@BMan100]

thanks, well it's like this, camaro/Mustang sports cars. Challenger = Grand touring I mean it can hang Ten with the mustang but it isn't really ment to be that plus it's more my style, I'll know the answer hopefully tonight if I can get it back. (THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME!!! O_O )

[@gmracing15]

Fuck the hybrid model of the JDM, give me the V8 any day

[@JoshRomer]

Hi

[@Fussinated]

@3:27 M56 Moonwalk

[@natekenny7106]

Thumbnail is a Cadillac ATS

[@microminiskirt]

Buy back your SRT from dealership. Let me know how that turns out-good luck.. It's just that a Mustang V6 can beat a Challenger R/T up to 112 mph as the V-6 has a limiter on it. But the bottom Mustang GT can beat the SRT says alot how well Ford has done and there is no gas guzzler tax on Mustang GT like on SRT. Mustang will probably more maneuverable than Challenger because it's just a smaller car.

[@WannabeSS]

What a sexy car. And that engine. Mmmm :)

[@th-l8936]

on the side profile, it looks like a genesis crossed with an equus

[@ASAWProductions]

why is the ATS on the front?

[@cutietaehee]

Just wanna hear his voice

[@nwhit1]

Only Infiniti I would buy.

[@RealtimeReviews613]

Yayyyy COOLEYYYY!!!! $70,000 for an infiniti! I call shenanigans! Get a lexus ls f sport and call it a day!

[@SWatchik]

why? Can't you read?

[@lightbulbisbright]

Why does the Acura TL get so much criticism but not this infiniti. Curves and bulges all over the places, I think it looks awful.

[@superstan121]

its 50k

[@Aftertime1]

This thing looks totally Hyundai, that's why nobody will confuse it for a BMW!!!

[@08LBJ]

looks like a bigger Q50 to me

[@clarda1]

Not really... this has RWD or AWD not FWD. A 7 Speed auto not cvt. 420 horse not 290 horse... and the list goes on.

[@douglaskeller7950]

Nice nissian

[@chipsandcheesecurlz]

2:43 awkward editing

[@mobeen1982]

COOOOOLEY

[@H1mynameisLarry]

Lol ISF looks too much like the is250 ... only difference.. exhaust lol. Is250 cost 32k.. ISF cost 65k... You pretty much paid over 30k for the V8... cause they look identical!!

[@tonycns]

For $70k I would rather buy a Cadillac CTS-V

[@swaganomiks]

Came to this video hoping to see a Cadillac review.. what a let down

[@pwoo124]

I thought Infiniti copied Cadillac for a sec.

[@PENGUINIAN1995]

I HAVENT COMMITED SUICIDE BECAUSE BRIAN COOLEY INSPIRES ME TO STAY ALIVE. COOLEY 2012

[@aGua421]

So this is all you get for 70K? Wow...

[@hamfish225]

never even heard of this brand!

[@lilman227]

Soo... Maxima with a slight make over?

[@thingsdemystified]

I have an iPhone, and I don't pay for anything extra. I don't have internet...not even texting. I get internet when there's wifi, and that's everywhere I need it.

[@xx24xx]

I'll probably get flamed for this, but the new Chargers are better IMO. Lets see what the revised Q series can do.

[@thearousedeunuch]

Five years have passed and you didn't get flamed.

[@hesoomelo9868]

Why is there a ATS 😂

[@jpintek]

Over 70k, that's nuts for Infiniti.

[@aaarsix]

looks like a hyundai

[@ellomirza]

That's how you review a car. You watching this MotorTrend faggots?! Did he ever mention anything about sodium filled exhaust valves being .2mm bigger than last years model? And yet I feel like I've driven the car myself after watching a short video.

[@DarthRoy1292]

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLETS DRIIIIIIIVE!!!

[@After4D]

lol true that . or step up your game and get a GTR

[@8898slc]

the look is not worth 70k

[@MichaelNNguyen]

Now the mid 2013 Q50 is a lot better.

[@DuhNoobster]

COOOLLLLYELELELYYY

[@25652998]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

[@chrisdrivehamptons8153]

nah they both kinda suck compared to a bmw or merc, no offense

[@mlee1101_]

Anyone else watching these in 2020?

[@mlee1101_]

Me

[@mlee1101_]

Me too

[@mlee1101_]

Mee three

[@mlee1101_]

Meee four

[@mlee1101_]

Meeeee Five

[@arashn89]

F sport is just as bad

[@rayward100]

Keep your reports to Prius and Volts gay boy. New muscle is above your pay grade.

[@Youhavenopowerherelucas]

+ray ward Ouch.

[@tzephinglim9016]

ray ward yeah because a Infiniti is a anti gay muscle car

[@Sirshort123]

first

[@AnyTechReviews]

People are going to disagree with me, but I honestly think this is one of the most ugly cars I've seen so far this year.

[@MichaelNNguyen]

One ugly design, give me a Lexus instead.

[@kumbackquatsta]

looks like a whale with downs, i'll take an audi or an e-class over this
