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.

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.
