2nd one of these

I've owned 2 of these, the first one had 200k on it and ran like new. Hardly any maintenance required for these vehicles. Fast, comfortable, quiet cabin.

Excellent Sport Luxury sedan

I have been pleasantly surprised with my Infiniti. I have the Lux 3.0 Twin Turbo V6 with AWD and I simply love it. This is the first car in a long time that I actually look forward to driving. It is a comfortable and knowing I have plenty of power under the hood gives me confidence in my daily driving. I guarantee this model can pin you back in your seat while maintaining a superior level of comfort. The cabin is very well laid out and even the rear seats are roomy and comfortable. Before this car I had a SUV and I compared the engine to a leaf blower. Didn't matter how much you stomped on the gas it simply just did its normal waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Not with the Infiniti. Hit the gas and be prepared for lift off. Very comfortable and believe it or not it gets better gas mileage than my previous 4 cylinder SUV. I just went out of town and drove in eco mode on the Highway and I got 26 MPG and in town stop and go I get a little over 22 MPG. My SUV got 21 in town and 22 on the Highway. So this car is a win win for me. I highly recommend giving this vehicle serious thought. The only negative to me is the dual displays. I do not have the navagation enabled so there is a big clock on the top screen. If I had the navagation it would be perfect but since I do not this is the only small negative I can say about this vehicle as I am middle aged and this is perhaps one of the nicest cars I have ever driven.

Not all as expected

At first i thought luxury car, top of the line, nice car! Doesn't even have half the stuff as i had with my Honda accord! It's been a Lil over a year now, never really used back doors until recently, my mom passed, had to pick up family, to my surprise when you open back door it dents front door in!! I call infiniti, went thru a big processes, they said warranty ended couple months ago! It's not something of my fault, it's some sort of defect! Went thru consumer affairs, got no where! Now I'm stuck paying 2500 to fix it! Unbelievable! For the amount i paid for the car, it's not worth it! This will be my last infiniti, such a shame!

Infiniti In Touch Service needs major overhaul.

This 50,000 car has an app that is from the flintstones... The car's Bluetooth is fair but should be excellent. Such a shame. Toyota corolla has a better app and believe it or not it costs $300/ year.

Good overall car

This is a good overall car. Power is great. Features are a little difficult to navigate. Style is great. It is a very pretty car.

Most reliable car I’ve own

This car meets all of my needs. It’s a great smooth ride. It’s just the right size, has very comfortable seats and is loaded with technology. A very pretty car!!

Shocked at the amount of interior Road Noise.

Road in a brand new Q50 with a friend who had it as a rental. I was astounded at the amount of road noise in the cabin and all windows were up. Had to raise our voices to talk above the road noise. Shocked because I've always heard that Infinitiy's are great luxury cars. I'll stick with my Ford Explorers...they are dead quiet.

excellent luxury for the price of a mid class

It’s like driving a 60k bmw but only paid 40k, best value car I have ever had. The aggressive looking is awesome, plus the seat is very comfortable. The only down side is gas mileage of the car is always around 20mgh, not 23 as they stated.

Best handling car and most comfortable car !

Drives phenomenal in rain slick conditions and it?s very responsive when stopping quickly etc. Comfortable, classy, and sporty with a posh interior! Seats 5 people comfortably and the trunk is quite spacious too!
