Toyota issued two massive recalls this week, for air bag problems and inoperative brake lights in several Tacoma, and Camry and Venza models, respectively. Malfunctioning parking lamps caused Buick to recall 2012 Regal vehicles. And Infiniti recalled certain older M45s because of an inaccurate fuel gauge. Crash hazards also prompted Hydro-Gear to recall lawn tractors. Lenovo ThinkCentre desktop computers may overheat and cause a fire hazard. And Gerber pulls a batch of Good Start Infant Formula after reports of off-odor and gastrointestinal problems in infants.

California's Monterey Peninsula is one of the focal points of the automotive world this weekend, as innumerable classic and exotic cars worth millions of dollars descend upon it for a few days of car shows, vintage races, high-profile auctions, and other related revelry. The main event, as always, is the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, where last night, three new vehicles made their debuts. Two of them, from Lexus and Infiniti, you'll be able to buy. The other, a spectacular ultra-luxury concept convertible from Cadillac, is just special. Keep reading for a quick rundown on all three cars, along with photos of each.

The Infiniti G37 sport sedan has a 3.7-liter V6 (hence the "37" in its name) that delivers a not-insignificant 328 horsepower. That amount of muscle puts the Infiniti more or less in the same arena as the BMW 335i, whose turbocharged inline-6 is also rated at 300 horsepower. Where these two rivals diverge, however, is at the entry point. While Infiniti has only ever offered the G37 sedan with a single, top-spec engine, BMW offers up the non-turbocharged and less powerful 328i sedan as a less costly point of entry. Same sense of style and available amenities; a little less oomph. For a lot of drivers, it's still plenty. For 2011, Infiniti has apparently gotten the memo. This weekend, it unveiled an entry model of its own: the 2011 Infiniti G25 sedan.
