2011 | 4dr Sedan 420-horsepower 5.6L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Very comfortable up front. see full Infiniti M review |

The footwells are very narrow for a car of this size. This is a side-effect of it being RWD. The "dead" pedal seems to be in the wrong spot, at least for me; it's too far to the right. On the plus side the air conditioned seats are great. It is possible to drive around in 90 degree weather wearing shorts, with the windows down, and feel comfortable. see full Infiniti M review |

The fronts seats need more bolstering. The BMW 5 series has much, much better seats. If I could change one thing about the car, it would be the seats. Anyone considering this car should sit in the seat at least 30 minutes before making a purchase decision. see full Infiniti M review |

I definitely like the space in this car. I can have my front seat pretty far back and still fit in the back with no problem (I'm 6' 2"). It's nice and roomy. One thing I wish the back seats had was the ability to recline - it's either see full Hyundai Elantra Touring review |
