  • European design with Japanese reliability - 2016 Infiniti Q50
    By -

    It has the latest technology. The Bose surround system is top notch and just blows you away. The steering is tight and responsive. Its fast and still great on gas. It is fun to drive especially in sport mode. Leatherette takes some getting use to but so far so good. Every time I get in it to drive it I am literally thrilled. Have owned several BMWs, traded my Lexus ES330 in on this, have owned Hondas, Toyotas, and VW. My Lexus rode smooth. My BMWs were always so aesthetically pleasing but this Infiniti just feels like a Smart car. Something that an educated well informed person who has done due diligence would purchase. I just feel like I made a smart decision in buying it. No buyers remorse at all. The engine is designed by Mercedes and assembled by Nissan. Im a large guy like 300 lb.s and no complaints. My friend was riding in the backseat and made the comment it felt like sitting in his recliner at the house. So as you can read, Im really enjoying the car thus far. Mine is the liquid platinum (silver) with black interior. Best color combo to me.

    I test drove Audi, Benz, BMW, Lexus and Cadillac... According to me Infiniti is better than any car out there.

  • The best car I have owned, totally fun to drive - 2016 Infiniti Q50

    I also own the 750li so I was a little skeptical on the 2016 q50 turbo. I love the handling and this car hugs the road in a way I have not felt before, it is a quiet whisper grabbing the curbs of the road even steep inclines.. This car is a lot a power and bang for the buck include the ease of "total" voice navigation for all the controls. I also love the braking power. It gives total break without the noise or the jerk, very amazing in a 4 cylinder car. I love it and it is worth every penny of the $41k price tag.. I do a lot of interstate and city and I am getting 24.5 miles per gallon. I have saved 52 kg of fuel economy with the 8 months that I have drove the car.. I have put way more miles on this car than I thought that I would.. I am now up to 20k miles, but dang she is beautiful and fun to drive..

  • Great car...understated and unappreciated - 2016 Infiniti Q50
    By -

    I have been in the market for a new car for a few months and kept coming back to the Q50S "RS400". This is the best bang for the buck in the industry. It is a rocket!! I was also looking and driving the Lexus GS350 F-Sport, BMW 535i M-sport, Audi A6, MB E400, and I kept coming back to the Infiniti. MSRP was $60,660 every option available and out the door for $52,675 so there is room to negotiate. Good luck finding another vehicle with this much tech and power for that price. Highly recommended!!

  • Super fast and stylish with power - 2016 Infiniti Q50

    Its amazing for what it is in this price range. You get amazing style, power @400 hp and technology. I love the menus and touch screen. Sound system is awesome.

  • Catch me if you can - 2016 Infiniti Q50

    This is my first Infiniti but it wont be my last, perfect blend of sport and comfort! The power of the V6 twin turbo is amazing given the HP rating, so much quicker than other 300 hp cars I have owned. Guessing its due to the turbos offering torque coming on strong at just 1500 rpms. Maybe its under rated? Anyway, very happy with nearly everything. Given a magic wand I would ask that blind spot monitoring and other the safety items be standard fare. Also it should be real leather! Sticker was 45k but got it down to just 38.5k.

  • Great so far - 2016 Infiniti Q50

    I came off of owning a 2006 Infiniti g35x. I, like others, was worried about the acceleration, with this being a turbo driven(?), smaller engine. While I think perhaps this new one might have a little less grunt if youre already going 40 or 60, off the line, this thing is like a vomit-inducing rocket. Theres a turbo?--I sure cant tell. Yes, the steering is a bit wonky at first but I think I might grow to like it--as of right now Im ambivalent about it. Its like it fights your initial move on the wheel and then slightly keeps it where you move it. Weird. I havent really had a chance to test them out but the brakes dont feel quite as utterly and mind-blowingly amazing as they were on my g35x. Those things were absolutely ridiculous though. I dont think I ever put my foot all the way to the floor. These ones feel a lot more civilized but I think if you do put your foot to the floor thats when theyd really clamp down? We shall see. The interior is mostly a work of art--Im SO glad they changed the colors away from that amber/orange color (gross). However the dual screens are kinda weird. I hope theres a way to just turn off the GPS screen (havent found it yet), cause Id rather not have it on all the time. I also think its pretty bizarre that you cant change the default driving mode (I have actually verified this one). Id much rather have it start up in Eco and whats the point of having a personalized driving mode if you have to click three times to get to it each time you start up the car? Also seems strange that they dont have a main mid display mode that shows current MPH (that could be one thing I just havent found yet, but Ive definitely toggled through all the screen options.) Anyways, those are very minor gripes. So far this car is a dream... I want to live in it.

    i had fun with my 2015 q50 premium awd but am having a blast with my 2016 q50 red sport. i got mine with the premium plus package which includes remote start which is very useful for these cold NJ winters. handling and performance are wayyyyy better. i love the rims, tires couldve been slightly better tho. car takes off forreal, thing is a rocket. #TeamInfiniti
