Almost perfect

2014 INFINITI Q50 Sport 4dr Sedan AWD (3.7L 6cyl 7A)
This car is nearly perfect.
It has a combination of looks, power, and technology that's unbeatable in its class, except for one thing: it bundles features that should be standard into expensive packages.
I was ready to purchase the Q50 AWD Premium with navigation and leather.
But in order to get memory seats and a reverse tilt down mirror, you have to move up to the Deluxe Package … (another $3,100).
This is unacceptable.
I do NOT want the Direct Adaptive Steering that's part of this package.
Really disappointed Infiniti would force its customers to buy this new technology that many do not want.
2014 Q50s

2014 INFINITI Q50 Sport 4dr Sedan AWD (3.7L 6cyl 7A)
Update 2021. Still happy after all these years.
I had owned the car for less than a month, when it went in the shop at Harper Infiniti in Knoxville for recall issues. I have owned several BMWs and Mercedes for many years. So I know recall.
When my wife and I decided to buy a car we spent months researching BMW 535 xi, and Mercedes c300 sport 4matic and had taken a few out on test … drives. They are somewhat nice, but none were just right.
As we researched additional makes and models, my wife came across an Infiniti Q50S, AWD Liquid Platinum with black interior. First thing she said was “I found the car for you”. Which we noticed there was only sport model for sale within a 400 miles radius. That got our interest. On a Friday afternoon we went to see this somewhat hard to find vehicle, we drove the car for a couple hours and returned it to the dealer. That night we continued researching, and on Saturday morning we went back to the dealer to purchase the car. We have not regretted it one second. The Q50S is a fun to drive, beautiful, comfortable, strong running car and drives better than any other comparable vehicle I have ever driven. And I have driven many.
In 2017 we decided to buy a crossover for a work vehicle. My wife came across a 2009 black on black FX35 AWD and we purchased it on the spot. Another vehicle that I have not regretted pulling the trigger on. Now our BMW CIC, BMW X5, and Honda Element are parked outside.
Do not buy if you have any regard for saftey .

2014 INFINITI Q50 Sport 4dr Sedan AWD (3.7L 6cyl 7A)
I am a 6 time Infiniti owner who made the ill fated mistake of leasing a loaded (every possible option) 2014 Q50S. I am not going to get into the widely reviewed issues with the rushed out, garbage InTouch system or the take you life in your hands DAS steering wonder.
On the good side, the car is very attractive, well designed and performs well. That's where it ends. The noise level … on the inside is equal to that of riding on a train. The factory supplied (long gone) run flat tires are noisy as hell, are blow out prowen (4 in 2 years). The passenger side seat rattles, the backup and front cameras are total mud and have long delays going on and going off. All of these issues when taken into the dealer and logging complaints with Infiniti have been answered with the typical Infiniti response " CAN NOT REPLICATE"
Now 27 months into a 39 month lease my car has been the shop for 5 weeks. The brake pedal will sink to the floor after a 20 mile or so drive. The car does stop, but it stops long and feels unstable. The dealer has replaced the master cylinder after 3 times of doing nothing except for giving me the old " CAN NOT REPLICATE" Now it is the shop again waiting for define intervention from Infiniti.
On top of that there is well known issues with the airbag system on this car. 3 Recalls later and 2 malfunction lights I can't say with confidence that they work.
In the end, if you are looking for a quality car in the $55,000+ range and you have any value for your sanity and the life of you and your loved ones, run away from this car, this manufacture and their dealer network. I thought I would never write such a review on Infiniti. They have betrayed me and thousands of faithful followers.
Third time NOT the charm

2014 INFINITI Q50 Sport 4dr Sedan AWD (3.7L 6cyl 7A)
My third infiniti. Had the G35x, G37x and LOVED THEM.
Got the fancy new Q50 and it is a joke! Fancy electronics that don't work!
Fancy electronic features that don't do ANYTHING.
I went from proud and loyal Infiniti customer to 'I can't wait to get rid of this car' guy.
