Thank you for your input, I do have two questions, is that system made for accousite listening or just basic listening. I would hate to spend that extra money on a sound system that I will be replacing with some after market speakers and ampilfer, which I would more than likely choose infinity door speakers and there ampilfer which I think was a great system that ...

I would like to be able to disconnect the ICC cruise control, and only use a standard control. Bart and nycdude are correct that the ICC on 2006 and later M35s can be disengaged. Unfortunately, I don't believe this is possible for the driver to do in the 2003 model. While talking to my Service Manager about the current ICC recall, we got into a discussion about previous ...

Infiniti M35/M45 vs BMW 5-Series

Re: Agreed [vsaxena]

Written by: sfcharlie on Jun 19, 2006 10:33 PM

I find you all over the place in your somewhat, as you say, fanatic arguing. As with aesthetic preferences, I don't think any one of us could argue with another saying "I bought the LPS with lease terms that worked for me financially. It was a key factor for me. Right now, if I go the BMW wesbite and construct a 2007 525i (which is a 215 hp car) that totals $50,670, tell ... Read More...

The M's lower price was a negative for me.

Written by: pete_l_p on Jun 18, 2006 11:03 PM

I just thought I'd chime in on this and give a slightly different perspective. I own an M45 premium, and I would have bought this car over the others even if it cost 20,000 more. I care a lot about prestige, and would actually prefer to get a car with a higher cost (and more prestige) if I didn't have to give up all of the other things about the M that I so much prefer. The ... Read More...

Re: M35 problem list [sfcharlie]

Written by: bw45sport on Jun 09, 2006 00:28 PM

Do you actual owners, in discussing your cars here, end up feeling they turned out to be more problematic than you had believed they would be when you bought them? Not even remotely problematic. I own one of the first M45 Sport's off the line, and as I've found with my 2003 G35 Coupe, the car has been flawless. When I visit the dealership I find that the service department ... Read More...

Infiniti M35/M45 2006+

Re: Renting before buying [sfcharlie]

Written by: pete_l_p on May 28, 2006 05:46 PM

That's EXACTLY what I did before I got my first infiniti (a 2003 q45) I rented the Q45 for a week, an S500 for a week, and drove the LS430 for a week. (I had actually purchased the LS430, but because of my back and neck problems the Lexus dealer let me return it) The Q absolutely won me over. Of course I love the M45 even more. You can rent an M35 at some enterprise locations, ... Read More...

3 years of G35 does not equal "established brand"

Written by: lexusguy on Nov 21, 2005 03:06 AM

Sorry, I know I'm a little late, but I really have to argue with the idea that because the G35 has generally been a success (Infiniti's first, only took them 14 years), they are as much of an established brand as BMW. To the average consumer, Infiniti did not exist before 2003. I bet that a majority of consumers still have no idea who they are. There's also no way they ... Read More...

Infiniti M35 vs Lexus GS 300

Re: Infiniti M35 vs Lexus GS300 [ckelly14]

Written by: msportfiend on Oct 06, 2005 00:51 PM

After test driving both the GS300 and the M35 (back to back, I might add), both my wife and I decided, hands-down, the M was the clear winner. Here's why: * Lexus was beautiful in terms of fit and finish and interior look/feel/quality, BUT it felt SO MUCH smaller inside. Although the differences in interior room are measured in 1-2" in each dimension, the M just felt ... Read More...

Infiniti M35 / M45 Prices Paid and Buying Experience

Re: Recent Quote [brianfox]

Written by: sangone on Aug 09, 2005 10:30 AM

I bought my 2003 G35 Coupe from Miller Infiniti and was treated very well. I also took the car there for servicing and have worked with a great service rep there. I may continue to get the car serviced there even though I live in Valencia. While I won't give names, you can call Glendale Infiniti and ask for Fleet/Internet person. If my purchase experience of the M45 ... Read More...

I drive a 2003 5 series with sport suspension, low miles. Does that upset you? I now also drive an Infiniti M45 Sport, which is superior in many respects. I hope that bothers you. Should bother every BMW owner, and BMW itself. Would you like to buy a used BMW? Read More...
