An odd thing I noticed on the C7 today.......
Ok, so I saw the new C7 today and noticed the wheel wells have like a fuzzy velvet feel to them. I cant imagine how they would clean up once dirty. Do you suppose this is just on the pre production cars and will be different on the production cars?

My C63 had a similar lining and it shed dirt and cleaned up fine.

Other cars already have this kind of inner fender lining. I see no reason why the C7 won't.

Here's a shot of the capless fuel filler for those who haven't seen it yet. No more button on the inside to open the fuel door, you just press on it and it pops open.

Hi Randy,
Nope. Not pre-production. New material that contributes greatly to sound deadening. Helps with "road noise" resonating in the wheel wells.
Honestly, it cleans up pretty well.

I have to say I like it a lot and it does look damn nice in person. The interior is beautiful and although I know it's the same size, it did feel somewhat smaller to me but my wife thought it felt the same as the C6. I think maybe the height and width of the center counsel could have something to do with that. I also have to admit that I'm warming up to the rear end, it really does look nice in person.
There were so many people there I couldn't spend enough time in it and I really had a hard time taking it all in. I could definitely see owning one someday.
A beautiful machine....

Thanks for the pic, BTW, I was wondering what the no-cap filler looked like.

My Infiniti locks when the car is locked OR when it is running. You can not add fuel to a running car. Unless of course you shut the car off, open the fuel door then start the car while the fuel door is open. But why do that?
