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.

Silver Bullet - 2003 Infiniti G35
By Ray3354 - May 17 - 10:00 amThe car is the most fun car I have ever owned. I presently own a BMW 3 series and a Mustang 5.0. I previously owned a 1993 Mazda Rx7. The G35 wins hands down as the best car I have ever owned. It can be a sports car or you can relax on the highway, throw it into 6th turn up the Bose 225 watt system and just cruise.

The Ultimate Dream Machine ! - 2003 Infiniti G35
By zebraxing - May 17 - 10:00 amI just completed 1000 miles on my diamond graphite / graphite coupe ... boy am I pleased. Everytime I drive around the pride of ownership is ultimate. Got one without the sunroof for that extra head room (auto/leather .. no premium package). Near perfection.

Best SUV in its class - 2001 Infiniti QX4
By Qx4Owner - May 15 - 10:53 amBefore purchasing my QX4, I test drove every SUV in that class. The QX4 is more powerful, but at the same time super luxury. You feel the class as soon as you step into one. The wood trim, analog clock and heated front seats are just a few items that make the QX4 a comfortable ride. The 4WD is great in the snow; I was able to outmaneuver a friend of mines H2 Hummer. Have had it for over 2 years now and canÂ’t image life without it.

Infiniti Q50 the worst car of 2014 - 2014 Infiniti Q50
By andrew714 - May 14 - 11:15 pmThis car represents the the company as a whole. FAILURE. Not only did the stealership pull a bait and switch on me by changing the price of the car from sales to finance, but their customer service after the sales was just horrid. Go to the Q50 forum and you can read hundreds of owners who regret buying this car. Several members have successfully gotten Infiniti to buy back the car. DAS is a gimmick. It doesnt work in the real world. It feels artificial and has tons of bugs. The Intouch unit is laggy and prematurely released. Everyone who bought the Q50 were unwilling beta tester for the company. Avoid Infiniti and the Q50. This car sucks and so does the company.

need more owners input! - 2014 Infiniti QX60
By James - May 12 - 2:12 pmI am in the market to get a 2014 QX60 (certified). The overall design and 7-seat passenger is very appealing, but the negative reviews are very troublesome. if you own a QX60, please comment on this post, or email me at 350inusa @ gmail dot com i live in SF area and hope the weather would help keeping the QX60 running smoothly. Thank you. -James

Great Used Vehicle - 2001 Infiniti I30
By maria norris - May 8 - 6:30 pmPurchased this vehicle two model-years old with 28,000 miles, currently has 105,000 miles. It has been a stellar performer! Very comfortable and refined interior and classic exterior body styling. This car has clearly spoiled me. It is going to be difficult to replace this level of refinement and trouble-free driving, and do it with a reasonable price tag. Mileage has been better than expected for this size vehicle, combined driving consistently averaging 25. Only complaint is the underbody design puts stress on the exhaust system; I have had to replace it three times. Other than that, just routine maintenance.

Couldnt be happier. - 2003 Infiniti I35
By Shiska - May 8 - 12:56 pmI have had this car since new (almost three years ) and it is far and away the best car I have ever owned , and I have been owning and driving cars since the mid 1960s.I still feel the same getting behind the wheel in the morning as I did when the vehicle was new. Fast, smooth, anvil tough and reliable in the most severe conditions, it is everything I want in an automobile.

Beware of tires - 2007 Infiniti G35
By Melinda Palmer - May 8 - 10:10 amI have 26,000 miles on my G35 and need to put the third set of tires on the rear. I have been told that because of the difference in the tire size (front & rear) that rear tires seldom last for more than 10,000 - 12,000 miles. Wish someone had told me this prior to purchasing! Definitely will NOT purchase another G35.
