In July I saw an ad on Craigslist for a '96 Infitini G20 for $750. I called, went to look at it, took it to my mechanic and bought it the next day for $500! It needed a few things to pass inspection, then after a 200 mile trip it needed exhaust pipes replaced. It seems to be good now, it has 189,7xx miles on it so it's no real surprise. But for a total cost of $1300, I love this car!

An Undiscovered Gem

This is my third G-20. #2 absolutely destroyed a Sedan De Ville that pulled out in front of me -- made me a believer in the structural integrity of the car. Handles wonderfully, combined with great ride for extended trips. No significant unscheduled maintenance in ten years, 100K mi. Original clutch, brakes, muffler. Back seat great for kids.

A VERY RELIABLE COMPACT SEDAN

Purchased new. It's a very solid, reliable sedan. The G20 has crisp handling and excellent steering and brakes. The 5-speed manual makes the most of the engine, which is flawless. Higher revs suit this engine, which redlines at 7,500 RPM. The interior is comfortable.The front buckets are supportive. Excellent 6-speaker in-dash CD stereo, and the climate controls are good. Other than routine maintenance, this car has never needed repairs, and the Infiniti dealerships treat you like gold.

Hidden value

I bought this car new in Jan 97, it was the last new G20 in the Chicago area. The car has been incredibly reliable. No mechanical problems in 10 years, and still have original battery. Needed to replace muffler system because I drive short distances (condensation causes tailpipe rust when exhaust system is run for <20 minutes). The "market" value on this car is underpriced given its fantastic reliability. Bought it because of the highest consumer report reliability ratings, turned out to be true.

'96 Infiniti G20

I bought my Pearl White Infiniti G20 brand new in 1996 and I'm still driving it after nearly thirteen years and 269,700 miles. It has been an excellent car and quite reliable. No rust at all, no rips on the interior, original paint still shines. Very comfortable seats. Plenty of room in the trunk. I had to replace the engine at 190,000 and the transmission not long before, but still a very pleased G20 owner. The G20 runs strong but acceleration is slow. I plan to keep maintaining it and driving it locally. It would probably be fine on a long trip but now I have a new vehicle that my family prefers.
