  • Nice car - 2002 Infiniti I35
    By -

    I bought my I35 last year and I have put 25k on it so far. Other than the regular maintenance only other thing I did for it is the rad replacement. Overall Ive had a good experience with it, other than the known problems such as turning radius and fuel efficiency, Infiniti has done a good job. Very spacious room front and back. Too much similarity in interior parts with Maxima and Altima, is this supposed to be a luxury sedan. Sound system really stinks!

    This car is amazing and it is very fun to drive. I just purchased this car yesterday. I have been going every where with this fun to drive and luxurious car.

  • Outstanding Value and Performance - 2002 Infiniti I35

    Recently purchased a 2002 midnight blue Infiniti I35 from a private owner and am very pleased. The 3.5 Liter V-6s 255 HP engine is highly responsive, yet very quiet and smooth running. The soft tan leather interior, plush carpeting, and space age instrumentation, are immaculate. The A/C is ice cold. You would never know this vehicle has 92,000 miles on it. A true looker! I drove a 1998 INFINITI I30 for 197,000 miles until the timing chain went. Enjoyed that very reliable car too, but this vehicle is so much more roomier and comfortable. INFINITI definitely improved the model tenfold in introducing the I35. OUTSTANDING!

    I bought the 2002 I-35 in 2012 with 45k for $9k. It was pristine. In 2 years I put another 45k (I know, a lot). It fell apart. I traded it in for $2k and lost my shirt (almost $6k!). Problems were engine mounts, emissions, struts, power steering pump, etc. Its interesting because they are the only luxury cars under 80k going for <$5k and they look awesome, but I think theres a reason for the cheap price. Its a shame because the interior/exterior is nice, but its basically a Maxima underneath and Nissan, well its not a Toyo/Honda..

    The vehicle has been very sound mechanically. Very comfortable and handles well on the road. Ride would be better with different tires- low profile tires have a rougher ride

  • Unreliable and poor quality componets - 2002 Infiniti I35
    By -

    As a person who worked in the automotive industry, I was always impressed with Nissans value for the money spent. When time came to purchase a vehicle for my wife I chose the 2002 Infiniti I-35 Sport. In the 12 years weve owned this vehicle I have put over $6000.00 in repairs in only 150,000 miles. Replaced rear brake calipers three times due to faulty design. Cam-shaft sensors twice, MAF sensor, numerous vacuum lines due to splitting, leather interior stitching came apart. Moonroof motor, and alternator.Car spent more time in shops then serving the family, and I now have sworn off Nissan , though I own a 72 datsun 240 and a 1991 300zx. Very poor choice of vehicle.

    First "luxury" car Ive owned and Ive been satisfied so far. Taken two long trips (Ohio to S. Florida) with no problems except an annoying click when pressure is applied to the accelerator pedal. Checked w/dealer and its supposedly happening in all I35s. (Throttle switch?!) Overall, its a wonderful car that Id recommend to any 1st time luxury car buyer.

  • Awesome! - 2002 Infiniti I35

    Kick-ass performance. This is a car for people who love to drive. If you want the softest ride or best gas mileage look elsewhere. Nerds who nit pick about the clock (real class) or other minor issues dont have a clue. This is for people who know & appreciate a true drivers car combined with luxury. All others need not apply, as you wouldnt appreciate it!

    I researched this car purchase for nearly a year before picking the I35. I looked at the Camry, Audi A4, Acura TL, VW Passat and found the I35 to be the best value of the group. I commute nearly 3 hours a day in my car so I wanted something that was very comfortable (I am 63" -250 lbs) and reliable at a great value. After riding in a friends I30, I became seriously interested based on the smooth ride, great leg/head room and all the standard amentities that are options in other models considered.
