Used 2011 INFINITI G Sedan G25x 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5 6cyl 7A) Consumer Reviews
Japanese BMW
After only owning cars from Germany and growing tiresome of the excessive maintenance cost that came with them I decided it was time for a change. Actually I was forced to change anyways due to the fact that a careless motorist killed my BMW 328xi. I wanted either a Lexus or an Infiniti for the fact that it would no longer cost me a fortune to repair or maintain those vehicles. I make 1 hour trips to and froe college and require a comfortable vehicle that I can rack up many harmless miles on. The Infiniti does not disappoint. But I must say that fuel economy isn't to much better that my BMW with a bigger engine. Also I feel obligated to mention that the cup holders are a joke and I hate them so so much! And I don't much care for the cheap hard plastics located by the steering column, should not be expected out of a 40000 dollar vehicle. But that is all the problems with my Infiniti, but I'm just nick picking the best I can, the list of complaints is much smaller than my Beamer. It also has much more space when really it's only a foot longer than the BMW. The BMW feels faster but the Infiniti is by no means a slouch. The ride quality is so much more refined in the Infiniti and it's also quieter inside the cabin. If your looking for quality, dependability, reliability, and the most value for your dollar, and inexpensive running cost with style and elegance. This is the car for you.

Would recommend owning
Brought this car used in 2017 with 119k and sold with 155k. The car is very reliable. I live in newyork and took the car on vacations numerous amounts of time. Even drove to canada. The check engine light only came on twice. Once for a mass air flow sensor which is ended up having to be reprogrammed at infiniti. And another time when i only changed one tire. I had to change the other 3 to fix it. Besides that thisbis one of the best cars i ownes

Fun to drive upscale sedan
Sufficient, though not massive, power from the 218 hp engine. Accelerates briskly, especially in DS or manual mode, but not a land rocket like the G37. EPA rates it only a mile or two per gallon better in fuel economy, but in real life driving I am getting around 24 mpg in the suburbs, while my friends with G37's get around 16-17 mpg. So we are talking around a 7-8 mpg improvement over the G37, which is like a 40-50% improvement. Handles and corners beautifully and is the first car I have owned that is actually fun to drive. Interior and exterior are classy and well designed. Base stereo is fine, don't understand unavailability of Bose upgrade and Navi system. Seats are very comfortable.
A gem!!!
I've driven the G25x for almost 8 years. It's 11 years old and i just replaced the battery on it! It has been the most reliable car I've had yet- I have brought both of my kids home from the hospital in it. It now has nearly 170K miles. It hasn't had any issues w regular maintenance. Now w my kids older I need something bigger, and I'm sure going to miss it when it's gone!

Love this car
Got this car a few weeks ago and I'm really impressed with the quality. Steering and handling are excellent. The 218 hp engine is adequate enough however it is noisy when accelerating. I feel the exterior is a little boxy looking however I had the dealership add a painted pinstripe which was on the showroom model and it seems to help the appearance in my opinion (just a matter of taste I guess). I like the unique color called 'Blue Slate' which is a combination of blue/grey depending on the light of day. The standard '6' speaker sound system is fine. The interior is first rate and mine had come with the dealer installed wood trim rather than the aluminum which I found added a richness to it.
