Good, although local dealer has a monopoly, and thus overpriced locally. works against me when I want to buy. The Grand prix, is very good value for the money, and my wife still prefers the Grand Prix. The M is big and heavy, G is quicker, but more common see full Infiniti M review

People driving other luxury cars that it competes with know not to screw with an M45. Drivers of cars it does not directly compete with (who are car people) know what it is capable of & unless they purposely bought a rocket, will leave the M alone. see full Infiniti M review

I am very unhappy that Infiniti is rebadging its entire product line. The car will go the way of the Dodo after only three model years. Not good for resale value. see full Infiniti M review

Still need to improve the reliability see full Infiniti M review
