Wife's trash is my treasure...
Took 00 I30t from wife, for whom I just bought silky-smooth, quiet 07 Lexus ES 350 because she hates noisy, bumpy I30 that she drove 6 yrs. I love this deal! (So does she!) I value perf, handling, luxury & style, which I30 has plenty. High wind noise is no issue because I play loud metal on excellent Bose stereo. Wife treated it like baby, garaged it, so it's immaculate. After recent extensive prev maint, fixing silly trash can lid dash compartment, & installing hi-perf tires, it's LIKE NEW. Other than bad alt & occaisional coil misfire (we replaced all coils), it has been very reliable. Interior is spacious and luxurious. My car status is now excellent! I plan to drive it many more years.
Mediocrity at its best
Good car, but not great. Does most things ok, but could be better. Ride is harsh, feel every bump and imperfection in the pavement. Transmission frequently slow to downshift (sometimes feels like 0 to 60 in 8 minutes). Big turning diameter is frustrating. Fortunately, it is reliable. I find it difficult to find a really comfortable seating position for both the wheel and the gas pedal.

The Shine is Off!
I bought the I30t with 47K miles 2 1/2 years agoI was very happy with it until about a year ago (100K) and it has cost me about $3K since then with the latest being the ign. coils ($1K). It also has developed rattles and a strange metallic clunking in the right rear on uneven pavement (dealer can't find - DUH!). I still like the ride and power, but for $3000 a year in maintenance and squeaks,rattles, and clunks, I'm starting to question whether I wouldn't be better off with something that gets better gas mileage and uses 87 octane.
SOLID!
Infiniti has a new customer for life. As long as they keep putting out great performers. One issue with check engine light (computer reprogram) the dealer took care of free of charge. Keep the premium fuel in, there's only a few cents diffrence and you avoid the pinging as posted earlier. This car is great for the family. I can't wait to buy my G35X!
