1999 Infiniti I30t 5-Speed: Walkaround & Short Drive - October 2017

[@tristanortiz5460]

This is the most gorgeous i30 I have ever seen. Even has the same wheels and steering wheel in my 97 Q45t.

[@TysonHugie]

Great cars for sure

[@renloh0775]

Looks as new as I remembered them when they first came out. Wow, the memories.

[@TysonHugie]

The design has definitely aged well!

[@97I30T]

What a crazy rare car. I30t’s were hard to find as it is. Most i30’s were just regular versions. Finding an i30t with a 5 speed manual is the holy grail. I had a 1997 i30t but unfortunately it was an auto. I’ve never seen a 5 speed i30 in real life.

[@TysonHugie]

I hadn't seen one in real life either until coming across this one. Such a cool/rare car!

[@ThatMaximaKid]

I'm about to pick up one this weekend. Ive seen a handful of i30t but never manual and this one I'm getting is grey on grey with heated seats and 1 owner car for 2k.

[@PoisonTick]

I have an i30 automatic and it has been the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned

[@TysonHugie]

They are great cars

[@sterling1395]

I just snagged a 1998 i30t 5MT for 2500 the other day. 108k miles. Nearly perfect. Has a couple scuffed body panels, a broken mirror and it’s missing a vent on passenger side dash. It’s my new daily

[@TysonHugie]

Congrats! They are cool cars.

[@filmsbycarl4602]

Sell me it pls

[@eluniversodelecuador]

Beautiful Infiniti I30!

[@TysonHugie]

Thank you

[@majestik7107]

Underrated car. All I can say.

[@TysonHugie]

Totally agreed!

[@carstencroessmann]

True 100%

[@deadcalifornia]

damn i just picked up a 99 i30 with 158K, in amazing shape, i love the bose sound system and interio. its auto though

[@TysonHugie]

Great cars

[@crownr0yalonice]

It’s. So. Beautiful.

[@TysonHugie]

I know! So rare with the stick shift! I had to have it. (Even if I wasn't planning on keeping it very long)

[@VQSeries]

Rare gem indeed, very nice, vid is appreciated - hope it went to a good owner.

[@TysonHugie]

Thank you, it did!

[@VQSeries]

@@TysonHugie Awesome 👏👏

[@classiql]

Beautiful.

[@TysonHugie]

It was an awesome car!

[@victorblock3421]

This was the maxima everywhere outside of N. America. This was badged as the Infiniti here. Then cheapened the North American maxima. This was so seriously underrated and a victim of the crowded field. In my opinion this Infiniti/Nissan was best and after 1999 Nissan was wrecked.

[@TysonHugie]

Good feedback and valid!

[@loganbradford8172]

I gotta 97 and I love it. I just wish it was manual

[@TysonHugie]

They are great cars!

[@health-vh8ce]

I have the '99 altima 5 speed , I take it to the car wash anytime I have a spare $5 in my wallet. It has a nice luxury sport feel compared to the '90 civic I had .

[@TysonHugie]

I love rare 5-speed cars.

[@seansean681]

I didn’t know you had this lol? Don’t know how I had missed this video?

[@TysonHugie]

It was a fun one while it lasted! I sold it on Bring a Trailer quite a while ago.

[@respecttheothers1338]

Wow 😍 I Lovett this car

[@nyzz1351]

Also know as maxima in the middle east ♥️

[@TysonHugie]

Yes!

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

Oh wow this is lovely. Do you mind me asking how much it sold for on BaT?

[@TysonHugie]

Sure, it went for $4,200 in November 2017.

[@armandrodriguez8501]

Same color as mine which I bought at Carmax in 2001.

[@TysonHugie]

Still have it?

[@CharcoalJoe]

THANK YOU

[@TysonHugie]

You're welcome

[@Ainawi]

Strangely, it's called as the Nissan Maxima here in Emirates

[@j.g.8328]

Mohammad Azhar it is not a rebadged version of the u.s. maxima. It is a rebadged version of the JDM Nissan Cefiro.

[@Ainawi]

J. G. Oh yeah, remember that car! The 1992 cefiro here was also called Laurel-Altima as well. It used to be a rear wheel drive car with rb20det in it. I still miss those sleepers 😂😂😂

[@Truth2021W]

I’m considering buying one with 187k miles for 3,400 any advice?

[@TysonHugie]

Sounds like a great ride

Yes 3.0

[@EdgarHernandez-qq1dl]

one question do you know what suspension they had as an agency

[@TysonHugie]

Nice profile pic! No, I'm not sure on that.

[@VincentScales]

18 years old and 134,597, that about 7,500 a year, the average American drives about 13,400+! Just goes to show you not everything over 100,000 miles is bad!

[@TysonHugie]

True!

[@yoellopez82]

This was my first car took care of it but got smacked in front left wheel while i was in restaurant.😥 in the end gave it to cousen for 500 and got an suv cuz i got a family now🙂

[@TysonHugie]

Nice!

[@GHOSTBROWNz]

Is this sold and how much u wanted

[@jameskeiley7989]

Have an Infiniti I 30 limited 1999 silver hadit three years 185000

[@TysonHugie]

Awesome

[@adrianjhatter]

I want....... but can't afford

[@Darksyne]

They shouldn't be that expensive.

[@david_rodarte]

I bought the i30 1999 for $60,000 Mexican pesos, about $3000 USD with only 60k miles, I use it every day, it's above 70k miles now and it works pretty good.

[@aoclive6710]

Adrian Hatter just go for the maxima I bought mine gxe for 650 bucks

[@adrianjhatter]

@@aoclive6710 only if I could find a good running manual around here for a good price, I would sell my Passat for it

[@adrianjhatter]

@@Darksyne maybe not but I'd already bought a car before I saw this one and buying another car wasn't (and still isn't) a good financial decision for me

[@slooob23]

looks like an A32 Nissan Cefiro

[@TysonHugie]

Maybe it's the same!

[@carstencroessmann]

It's the same, in Germany we call it, well Nissan call it Maxima QX. It was sold under the Nissan Brand.

[@slooob23]

@@carstencroessmann I still drive one in NZ with a 5 speed manual transmission. It is the most reliable car I've ever owned and looks almost as good as the day it came out of the factory. 25 years old and still going strong, not a single thing is broken inside or out.

[@carstencroessmann]

@@slooob23 Totally agree.I just work on the 24 years old of my father in law. He wanna sell it because he baught an Infintiy now. I lowered it him 21 years ago as I saw in the papers. They just wanna give him 800€ so I decided to keep it. Got only 175tkm which is around 108kmls. Rust is my biggest enemy, because of the winter and salt, but almost done, welded an new front into the frame luckily found a used one. Now our daughter can ride it and in 6 years we get the historical plates. But it's an Automatic, before the A32 he owned a J30 that was a shifter. Man burn out in 3'rd gear no problem. Once I'm finished I'll make a video too. Greetings from Germany

[@slooob23]

@@carstencroessmann I'd love to see your video when its done. I had to repair the front radiator support too, but that is the only moderately expensive repair I've done in 6 years. The rest of the car is rust free. The radiator support (some call it the front cross member) is a common issue on this model. I've got 220,000km on mine, my mechanic has one with 450,000km on the clock with the same automatic transmission!

[@TysonHugie]

Thanks for watching! Sold this car 4 years ago!

[@carstencroessmann]

For how much did you sold it?

[@TysonHugie]

I can't remember. It was on Bring a Trailer for auction so you can probably look it up on there.

[@carstencroessmann]

Just to give me an idea. For what does the "T" stands for? Trim? Sorry for the Q but we haven't them or these trims in Germany

[@j.g.8328]

@@carstencroessmann The T stands for Touring. It’s the sport trim.
