Sporting a 414-hp V8 engine, the Sebastian Vettel Edition Infiniti FX50 is the most powerful Infiniti the Japanese automaker has released, and with a price tag of around $150,000, it’s also the most expensive.

But those interested in America need not worry about its price tag, as Infiniti has confirmed to Inside Line that the Vettel Edition FX will only be sold in Western Europe, Russia, and the Middle East starting in March 2013. Limited to just 150 units, it’s a shame that not a single one will be sold on US soil and that’s due to “regulatory” issues according to Kyle Bazemore, an Infiniti spokesman.
