I love this brand. Very happy with all 3 of them. Compared to Lexus and the german cars you get more value with the Infiniti. Sad that they dont sell as well as the other brands, but i have found most people are mindless sheep who buy what everyone does so that might explain it. The only real knock would be the infotainment system is old compared to the competition, but I find the only infotainment that matters in a car is controlled by my right foot. And by that standard my Q60 is best in class.

They have Discontinued the G37C, the Q70, the QX70, and so far beyond the Q50, Q60, or the QX80 (beyond my budget even used) and with moving away from performance, style, tech, and using more CVTs, its not looking good for Infiniti...

I'm currently leasing the 2021 QX80 Sensory 4WD with advanced technology, and without it, I wouldn't survive winter, especially when I have to work on a snow day. Yeah it's outdated, but at least it's reliable, and is based off the Nissan Patrol and Nissan Armada.

Infiniti should’ve chased the luxury EV market way back in 2012 with the debut of their LE concept. Nissan had the Leaf and were far ahead in BEV technology. Too little too late. Hoping they can turn around and be competitive again.

Current owner of an Infiniti Qx70 LIMITED in Pearl White. 85k Miles. I plan to push this car 20 years and push into the electric era as one of the relics as i'm thinking electric cars will slowly take over. Best part is I have Chevy for my routine runs so the SUV only gets highway miles. I love this car every day more and more.

It's FX35 not FX34. Infiniti has suffered in slow sales because they traded Sport Luxury for Economy Luxury. The change to smaller engines and CVT Transmission to improve economy caused them to lose sales. The only cars that still are considered Sport Luxury are the Q50 and Q60 because of the larger turbo engines and the 7 Speed Transmission. They need to make available the 3.0 L Turbo V6 and 7 speed Transmission in all of their vehicles. I own a 20th Anniversary G37XS Sedan and a 2012 FX50S, which are both rare vehicles.

I grow up driving Nissan sport cars as a teenager during the golden area of Japanese sport cars. Best car I owned 2004 Infiniti G35x sedan with Nismo body kit from the factory. Run perfect for 8 years of ownership. I run the car hard for my daily driver , reliable all year round, even bad weather with its awd. I had No issues, just oil change and go! Then I got a 2011 G37x unfortunately had many issues even with good maintenance and engine gave out on me!? I had my eye on the Infiniti Q50 red sport for years, test driving every year model! I was loyal to the brand. Driving Nissan/Infiniti over 20 years but wasn’t the same anymore. Then test drove KIA Stinger and end up taking it home. Best choice over Q50 which I have respect for!

The V6 infiniti’s casually go to 180-200k if maintained well. Their reliability is definitely up there. The biggest issue is cheap ricer kids beating the hell out of em and not maintaining them at all
