I like the vent shpaes on the inside. They have similar shapes to the exterior pieces like the headlights and the door skin. I wonder if its gonna make the cut.

I don't think that the gold/bronze interior is not modern. Gold is very in right now. I think that the gold is not as timeless as some other materials. Trends change between gold, silver, black, wood, etc... It will never make it to production and that is because of the cost but also because it would not be widely appealing enough. I could see someone wanting that custom though.
Infiniti had to put something in the Q30 concept that wouldn't make production or else it would actually be just the Q30 production version.
its just the way they did it that i don't like, the examples your showing, shows vents that are aren't as obvious as in the Q30, being so obvious with it adding big thick trim around isn't helping.
I really don't think that the vents in the Q30 interior look bad. If anything, I think the cheap black plastic vents on most other cars look ugly. At least the Q30 jazzes them up a bit with some gold trim. Look at the vents on the Chevy or Nissan above. They are the most pain Jane flat, under designed things ever. I'd rather have a design with some risk than something as boring as white bread.
being a guy into racing, if i wanted to turn the Q30 into a unique race car, that placement of the vents in the center would be a sweet spot to fit some gauges. I know 3 gauges can easily fit in their.
Q30 with gauges in the vent area....because race car.
It would be nice to see something like this on the IPL Q30 but even if it does it would remain a concept. I am the same about seeing the q30 being an avid track car.
using that idea for a layout will be awesome, they just need to do a good job at making it flow with the interior design, keeping everything modern and even ahead of it's time.
its all about manufacturing costs and waste. The curvy bevels of the Q30 concept interior would be costlier to manufacture then something geometric.
Think about it if you can stamp out 12 rectangle vents from one piece of plastic with no waste vs 8 curvy vents and 1/4 of the plastic sheet wasted. Which one do you think the manufacturer chooses. Efficiency is king in manufacturing.
It has nothing about what the consumers might like, its about what does the accounting department like.
I'm not sure if I like the look of this interior. I like how the gauges span all the way to the middle of the dash, but all of the brushed aluminum looks kinda cheap and dated. Like it belongs in a Top Gun cockpit.
Once they start integrating large LED touch screens instead of actual gauges and buttons, we will see more dash designs that span to the middle of the dash, and it will let you customize the things that you want to see on your dash as well.

Was just thinking about it and rather than gauges that they should look into screens that still look great in the interior that can serve more purposes than just being gauges. People would favor that more.

yea well thats this... Gauges spread to the middle becasue its a race car pretty much, notice tach front and center, EFF speedo
I'll take brushed aluminium over plastic gold any day... Why would anyone want a full screen dash, First of all do you know how heavy that is going to be, screens and wires built into the dash. and second, what happens when those screens break, no instrument readouts? you want to drive around without knowing engine temp, how much gas you have left or how fast you're travelling?
at least with analog guages one cooks out fine, one instrument wont cook out here, the whole dash will. Whats a new dash going to cost 5 grand?
best part is theres a war on cellphone usage in car, now were trying to turn cars into smartphones..

automotive digital instrument clusters aren't that heavy at all, they're very light and compact too. it's weight and size isn't anything to worry about though. plus a gauge with moving parts is more likely to fail
Hi everyone
I've bought last week an used Q30 for my wife. Unfortunately the dealer misplaced the boot board (floor) probably when they done the valet.
Had to take it without it and had to order one
So I called infiniti dealer from stockport, order and paid the boot board on the phone.
After 30...
Hello, I want to use ''Google Send to car'' application for my Q30, I need account ID to save my car to Google. Is this VIN number which I used to log in to infiniti intouch portal or anything else?
