Buick fender vents aside, there's a lot of weird going on with the 2011 Infiniti QX, and the live photos do little to mitigate the ponderous proportions. Based on the Nissan Patrol SUV, the new QX56 is a big, real-deal SUV, but we have to wonder who's going to find it attractive.

Priced to start from $59,800 in four-wheel drive or $56,700 in two-wheel drive, the 400-horsepower 5.6-liter V-8 QX56 is not exactly undercutting the market, either. You do get a lot of features and equipment for your dollar, including a seven-speed automatic transmission, standard Around View Monitor, Bose premium stereo, and automatic temperature control.

Stay tuned for more details on the all-new QX56, but in the mean time, enjoy these live photos of the car's unveiling in New York.
