  great car - 1998 Infiniti I30
  By tepz - July 5 - 10:00 am

  its got great handle and its moves according how you want it and as you push on the pedal, it might be a luxury vehicle but it can give some cars out there a run for their money

  One of the finest cars existed - 2001 Infiniti I30
  By dmitryp - June 24 - 10:00 am

  I have 01 i30t with all options (no Navigation). This is the car I enjoy to own. No headaches, no problems, solid built quality, nice features. This car is a STEAL for its MSRP of $34.5 DOUBLE PRICES BMW and MB offer may be (!) a little mor features (in case of BMW) and a known name (especially in case of MB). I also have MB 99 E320 and honestly this Infiniti is far more reliable and advanced for half price. I strongly recommend this car, especially when they put 3.5 V6 in 2002 model!

  Good, Reliable Car - 1998 Infiniti I30
  By linc2u - June 11 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car used at a local dealership. I drive 40,000 to 45,000 business miles a year. I service the car regularly. Currently there is 125,000 miles on it. I have replaced the brakes and put new tires on it. Nothing else has needed repaired or replaced. I get 29 mpg highway, and 20 city. The ONLY thing that has not always worked properly is the power antenna. (it does not fully extend) It doesnt seem to effect the reception. I plan to drive another 50,000 then get another. It is not the best car in its class, but it has to be one of the best values you can get. My wife loves her Acura and wouldnt drive anything else. The same goes for me with the I-30.

  10 Years for Fun - 2000 Infiniti I30
  By Flip_ophobia - May 22 - 2:00 am

  We purchased the I30 New and have had small problems from time to time. As others have reported , coils replaced, oxygen sensor, and alignment problems. A fun car to drive and average 23 MPG. Plenty of power and still in style after 10 years.

  Worst Car I Ever Owened - 2001 Infiniti I30
  By guessw - May 12 - 1:06 am

  My wifes Honda Accord was stolen and we wanted a a nice temporary replacement car for her while we recuperated from the loss. Buying a used Infiniti I30 was a huge mistake. within one week of taking it home the instrument panel went out $200 towing $375 to repair. After that it has left us stranded 3 times at $200 per tow. Replaced alternator, starter, belts and oxygen sensors. Lately its its been stalling and dealer says we need a new transmission, probably another $2000 in repairs. We bought the car for $4200 with the intention of keeping it for one year and so far weve spent $1900 in repairs. We should have just bought something new.

  Love this car - 2001 Infiniti I30
  By Adihere - May 8 - 10:00 am

  Just picked it up. Great car from day 1. Learning to appreciate it more and more every day. Looks fabulous, great performer, comfortable interior. Althought the suspension is stiffer on the ts the ride is harsh sometimes over the littles bumps you feel it in the cabin. This car is made well, great looking, and will get many years of pleasure driving it.

  top value - 1999 Infiniti I30
  By iman30 - April 30 - 2:00 am

  I purchased a 1999 i30 with 28000 miles on it after much research.The cost value ratio on this vehicle surpassed the Lexus e300,mb e320 and the saab 95.The reliability factor is extremely high on the i30 and along with the cost value ratio was the other single most important factor in my decision to purchase this model.

  Great Car - 1999 Infiniti I30
  By Ray - April 28 - 10:46 pm

  I have driven this car 8 times from BC to California return and I cant think of one thing that I didnt like about the car. When driving from Seattle south, I thought the gas gauge was broken when it indicated a 1/4 tank remaining after I had driven 400 miles. Obviously I was happy with the fuel economy. The car provides more than adequate power to merge into freeway traffic and quickly pass on single lane highways. The car came with a great warranty but I never got to use it - nothing needed repairs. I even still have the original battery!

  Bang for the buck - 2001 Infiniti I30
  By Raj Venkat - April 21 - 3:50 pm

  Got it used with 68200 miles on it for dealer trade-in price. What a beauty! It is one of the most elegant Infinitis around (past and present). The engine revs effortlessly and the transmission shifts smoothly. Very sturdy at highway speeds of 80 mph. The leather seats are large and comfortable and it is so roomy inside. It definitely likes only premium fuel as I hear an annoying growl when I press the gas with 87 octane fuel. Mileage is not as good as I thought, 21 mpg mixed driving and 26 mpg on highway. The tornado fuel saver did not improve mileage. There is an annoying rattle coming from around the beautiful analog clock when the ext. temp is cold but disappears when the car warms up.

  I LOVE my Infiniti I30! - 2001 Infiniti I30
  By althomas8 - April 1 - 8:56 pm

  I originally wanted the Acura TL but my husband kept pushing me to test drive the I30. I was convinced before I even got to the dealership that I wouldnt like it. Well, as it turns out, I loved the I30 and we bought one that night!
