This is my 3rd Infiniti. I always buy low mileage used cars that still have some warranty on them. This is the most trouble i have had with an Infiniti. ALso had a Maxima too - which is very similar. Love the Infiniti's handling, performance, looks, reliability (usually) and features. Good mix of luxury and sport - more on the side of sport. see full Infiniti G review |

I live in the sticks of northern NY (firmly in Mustang/Monte Carlo country) and I get complimented at least weekly on the car's classy appearance, the exhaust note, or the prestigious brand. It stands out like a sore thumb among all the domestic coupes up here, and I wouldn't have it any other way. see full Infiniti G review |

Infiniti is right up there with Lexus and Acura for reputation, but neither of them can match the performance you get with an Infiniti. As good as a BMW for a lot less money, and a lot more reliable. see full Infiniti G review |

While the Infiniti brand itself features high-end luxury cars for around 40k plus. They are owned by Nissan, monthly check gets paid to nissan, and in Japan, the Infiniti line is branded Nissan. All smoke and mirrors. Good reputation among young crowd... see full Infiniti G review |

2014 | Nothing against the latest redesign--it's quite impressive--but the Range Rover Sport's attractions begin with what's decidedly not new: Land Rover's traditional focus on SUVs. Land Rover doesn't build sports car or sedans (though sister Jaguar does). Instead, like Jeep in the U.S., Land Rover focuses on off-road vehicles because that's what it has always done. In contrast, the German parvenus wouldn't bother with the things if they weren't so popular and profitable. If you're willing to pay the price they'll build you an SUV (or a crossover, if you prefer that term for the more car-like sort), even a very good one (if you check the right boxes), but their heart and soul aren't in it. Then there's the matter of what Land Rovers were developed to do in the postwar period, and who they were developed to do it for. No, not trips to the mall for suburban housewives. When the Queen and landed gentry of England toured their estates, they did so in Land Rovers. And when the Queen's subjects had to venture through the largely unpaved reaches of her vast, increasingly former empire, they ventured in Land Rovers. Mutual of Omaha didn't introduce American children to Africa's wildlife from the seat of a BMW. Buy a Range Rover, and you're gaining a connection to these traditions. Plus some exclusivity. Land Rovers sell in much smaller volumes than the big German makes. Between this and their idiosyncracies, they seem more special. see full Land Rover Range Rover Sport review |
