Road & Track First Drive - 2011 Infiniti M37 AWD

Stylish and powerful, the new M improves in every way.

In a quiet, tucked-away corner on the outskirts of Los Angeles, Infiniti invited a few media members to a very early drive of the 2011 M37 and M56. Naturally our cross hairs were squarely set on the M56, with its 5.6-liter V-8 pumping out 420 bhp and 400 lb.-ft. of torque; however, after driving the company's future flagship sedan, we were informed by the engineers that it was far from the final version, and it was not at all representative of what the car will be like when it hits dealer showrooms in April.

Sticking with the athletic cut.

Infiniti has styled itself as the Japanese BMW, but for most of the two decades the brand has been around, its products haven’t measured up to those from the German company. Recently, though, we’ve watched the G sedan and coupe evolve into some mighty formidable competition for the 3-series, while the current M is a multiple comparison-test winner in the medium-size, luxury-sport segment, which includes the Audi A6, the BMW 5-series, the Lexus GS, and the Mercedes E-class, among others.
