Best bang for your buck
I drove several models including Mercedes, Volvo, Lexus, Accura, Maxima and Infiniti. I chose the Infiniti for it's value, performance and insurance rates. This little 4 cyl is very peppy. It doesn't shine off the line, but it will walk any 302 Mustang on the road. It corners better than any of the cars I drove including the Mercedes. It's leather, power everything, Bose stereo, 60/70 warrenty and free loaner car, make it a pleasure to own. It's by no means the perfect car but I think it's by far the best value for your money. It you're looking at vehicles in the $17k-35k range, consider the G20. Do your homework and see for yourself.
Best Car
I have owned the car for six years now, and can say it is the best car I have ever driven. Other than life limited items like tires and the battery, the car has been entirely trouble-free. The stickshift makes the most of the small engine, gets great mileage, and is fun to drive.

Very nice for the price
I just bought the G20 3 weeks ago with 121k. I am using the car as a commuter to drive almost 100 miles/day and am thrilled by the comfort and reliability of this Infiniti. It doesn't dazzle with power or handling, but for a smaller car, it is a very comfortable ride that is perfect for a commute. Due to the timing chain, extensive records from the previous owner and general reputation of Nissan products I am looking forward to many maintenance free years. Only thing I have had to do is replace the upper control arm bushings and the inner tie rod (suspension is evidently the Achilles heel of these particular cars). If that is all I have to do, this is a great car for under 5k!
So In Love
I bought this car from the girlfriend of the original owner's son. They didn't take very good care of her. As a result I have replace the brakes, rotors, pads the whole deal and the passenger calipers. Other than that this girl has been through a lot with me - cross country, in and out of Canada and she never gives up!! Now at 205000 miles she is starting to make some noises I am concerned with but no one can figure out what it is. My best guess would be the timing chain but at any rate, I am replacing her this month with a 2002 g20 with 75000 miles. I know i will be just as happy for years to come!
Infiniti G20 - Good economical sedan
My experience with my Infiniti G20 has been great! The car is a small compact sedan with all the features possible from heated seats to a digital Bose stereo system. I haven't had any mechanical problems with my car and have been pleased with the fuel economy. The overall integrity of the car is a 10.
One of the Worst Cars I Ever Owned
I find it surprising that the last reviewer decided to keep their 99 instead of trade it for something better. I on the other hand would have driven this heap of garbage into the junkyard had I known what a terrible car it was. I even read reviews on here for months before I decided to buy one from a neighbor, who obviously heard about my disappointments. From the moment I started driving it, lights starting come on. First it was the speed sensor, then the ABS, then the car started shaking at 45 miles an hour, the ball joints were complete crap and the entire alignment went off within a month.
infinti
fun to drive and great to pick up the ladies. The infiniti g20 is luxurious and reliable car. I recommend this car to anyone who is looking for all of the qualities I mentioned above.
Great Car!
I bought new in 1999. No problems other than routine. Car has held up exceptionally well for 9 years. If I ever had to design a car, it would turn out exactly like this. It's too bad they stopped making it - I'd buy it again if I could. Got over 150K miles on it and everything has held up well.
Best Value for Money/ Great Resale
I purchased this car as my first new car and I have been extremely impressed. The power, luxury and value for the money have remained the best points about the car. Service has also been wonderful. I first leased then purchased the car and also received very good deals through the dealership. I plan to purcahse the G35 coupe next and don't plan to buy anything but infiniti for the next 5- 10 years. In addition, I have encouraged my parents and friends to buy infiniti.
I'm ruined for all other cars!!!
The G20 is an amazing car. It is well- built, handles beautifully, and looks great on the road. I've taken her on many long road trips and she always handles herself gracefully in any driving conditions. I've never had to have her taken in for maintenance problems. I would recommend this car for anyone.
