The Infiniti Q50 is nice, but to really get us all excited it needs to look a bit sexier and and have some more serious performance. The Eau Rouge, named for the kink in the longest straight of the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, adds just that.

The goal was to infuse the Q50 with some of the essence of the Infiniti-sponsored Red Bull F1 team, and we must say we think that kind of excitement is here. Firstly, that paint is glorious. It's a deep blood red that we always want to see on cars, but almost never do. 

More importantly, however, is this quotation from Infiniti President Johan de Nysschen: "If we built this car I would expect it to feature over 500hp and 600lb/ft of torque." Now we really hope this car hits the streets, because that would be tire-roastingly awesome.
