Overview & Reviews
Infiniti is an upscale automaker from Japan. Though most of its products are related to those sold by parent company Nissan, Infiniti looks to achieve a premium status by infusing its cars and SUVs with spirited performance and additional luxury content.
The brand was launched for the 1990 model year. Its purpose back then, as it is now, was to create premium vehicles for America that wouldn't have otherwise fit in with Nissan's more mainstream image. This was the same tactic Honda used for the creation of Acura, and Toyota for Lexus. In its first full year, Infiniti started out with two vehicles, the Q45 sedan and the M30 coupe and convertible. The compact, entry-level G20 was introduced soon after.
As the 1990s moved along, Infiniti slowly added more vehicles to its lineup. The Q45 luxury sport sedan found its market. The car's 278-horsepower V8 was class-leading in its day. On top of that, the Q45 offered cutting-edge technology such as an active suspension system. By the late '90s Infiniti had rolled out the QX4, an SUV based on the Pathfinder. The sport-ute's truck platform gave it a leg up in off-road performance relative to competing car-based SUVs.
Although Infiniti's sales grew steadily, the marque still fell short of both Lexus and Acura in terms of popularity. The early 2000s saw Infiniti making a determined effort to sharpen its focus and upgrade its products. But it was the introduction of the entry-level, midsize G35 in 2003 that finally gave Infiniti the boost and identity direction it sorely needed. Based on the same platform underpinning the Nissan 350Z, the G35 coupe and sedan met with immediate sales success. The FX35/FX45 soon followed -- a crossover SUV that provided spirited acceleration and sports-car handling with the utility of a wagon.
Today, Infiniti's lineup has expanded to include the G (now a sedan, coupe and convertible) and FX as well as the midsize M sedan, the EX small crossover SUV, the JX midsize crossover SUV and the QX large SUV. Infiniti has also introduced the M Hybrid sedan, its first hybrid vehicle. No matter the model, shoppers will find Infiniti's latest vehicles to be focused on luxury, sport, quality and value.

Excellent Vehicle - 2003 Infiniti G35

Wow, what a car. Love our QX56!!!!!! - 2004 Infiniti QX56
By RCBlitz - December 10 - 10:00 amWe have had our new QX56 for about a month now, and we are so glad that we decided to go with infiniti. We test drove all major full sized SUVs and narrowed it down to the QX56 and Navigator. Both great vehicles, but the QX56 is just that much better in so many areas. We have had no problems at all and I have been listening for the resonance and rattle that some have spoken of to find nothing at this point. If you have any doubts about this car and are on the fence then take my advice...get it now and you will be very happy that you did. I was hesitant at first with it being the 1st year out, but in hindsight it is the best car we have owned.

Going to work is just more fun now! - 2004 Infiniti G35
By g35xgirl - December 10 - 10:00 amI purchased my G35x about 3 months ago and am extremely happy with my purchase. Its incredibly fun, stylish, and I feel so in control on the road. My only issues with the car would be the gas mileage (especially now when prices are astronomically high). I average about 18-19 mpg everyday commute, and I hit about 24 mpg on my long road trip with no stops. I also find that the heated seat button is too close to the passenger/driver seats and sometimes accidentally turns on if you brush past it. The clock is kind of silly too, as its not lighted and very difficult to see the time at night. Other than those few improvements its an amazing vehicle!

Menz - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Menz - December 10 - 1:56 amThe 2003 6spd G35 coupe is an example of pure excellence. I have had no problems with this fine automobile since I purchased it in July of 03 with 3/4 of a mile on her. It handles confidently at all speeds. Ive had it up to 135 and it feels like youre going 80 mph. This car is worth every penny.

What a Car!! - 2006 Infiniti G35
By thevizkid - December 8 - 7:00 pmAs far as my driving experience with the car goes, stupendous. The G35 handles like magic. Ive had instances where I have snaked the car through curvy, mountainous roads at speeds exceeding 65 mph, and have had no issues at all. The thrust this thing can produce can be overwhelming sometimes, say how about a very noticable acceleration when crupsing at 65mph. It feels like there is some stored power in there somewhere at times when you need that extra push! The only downside to this car is the winter weather driving. Being a rear wheel drive makes it a little rough sometimes. Also, it being a small, light car has some disadv especially with the wind.

Bury me in it! - 2011 Infiniti EX
By mikiehorn - December 8 - 3:02 pmA plush Chestnut interior and Garnet paint color makes my car stand out in a crowd. Great horse power (297) coupled to a smooth 7 speed. AWD for winter (CA) skiing trips. Comfortable leather heated seats, great driving position, turn radius, noise isolation, XM radio, nav system, 9 gb 11 spker sound system make for a surprisingly good touring car w/ rear seats folded down for the wife and I (kids are GONE). W/cross supports on the roof rack - a perfect ski storage system. AWD gets it done in moderate snow conditions (all weather tires limit this). Rear seating ok for short car pooling trips - up to 4 passengers. After 5 months and 6,000 - its a KEEPER! Car is trouble free to date.

Just the Best. - 1998 Infiniti Q45
By jim d. - December 8 - 2:00 amSimply the best car Ive ever owned. Told my wife yesterday that if we had a ton of money, I would just keep rebuilding this car as it aged. Comfortable, quiet, reliable, powerful, good features. Would not trade for BMW, Lexus, Mercedes,... Maybe for a Rolls?

2003 1/2 model - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Garyintn - December 8 - 2:00 amjust bought mine less than month ago and love it. I didnt know when I bought it, but I have the 2003 1/2 which has some upgrades I love. The xenon lights and the Infiniti written out on the back side instead of boxed.

Grrrrreat engine - 2004 Infiniti G35
By throgmorton - December 5 - 3:10 pmI loved the car in 04 and I still do now. In terms of the styling this car is the watermark - they messed up the lines of car with the styling revision of the grill and lights in 05 and the current model just doesnt inspire the head turning that this one had. Reliability - excellent. The only out of pocket expenses was for brakes. Handling is real tight and this car is plenty fast. The additional hp of the later year models doesnt help the mpgs. If they make this model again - with the brake dust issue addressed and the inclusion of larger seats found in the current model... please sign me up for a new one!
