More info and Review of the Eau Rouge

theDreamer

It lacks the GTR transmission, believe the prototype is using the beefed up 7AT we have in the Z.
Will probably be a Qxx IPL, Eau Rouge is probably just its prototype name to get attention. They have a tough task with this car, 4 door saloon car which is meant to be a GTR, yet is Infiniti so needs luxury, comfort, and 'sophistication' to go up against the other luxury brands.

Let's just hope they give the next model Nismo the same treatment as the IPL. Although I think the price point will be closer to GT-R money. Reports last year when the rumor dropped that the IPL would get the GT-R engine they had the price set at $70k-$80k.

Yup, that's correct. The 7at needed beefing up anyway as it did not have a high enough threshold for a transmission in a potentially modifiable sports car. It should have come out the barn rated @ 500hp, not 400hp.
