17 Years Later and She's Still Running Strong!

Bought this car Brand New in 2002 with 38 miles on the odometer. Hands Down The BEST CAR I've ever owned. Still driving it to this day, but about to put it on the market in lieu of an upcoming acquisition of a 2018/2019 Infiniti Q50 Red Sport 400 Sedan. You would be Really hard pressed to find a car back in 2002 such as the I35. Acceleration could Not be beat! After installing a rear anti-sway bar, handling improved exponentially. My only gripe about the car was the lack of heated seats. The dealership offered to order one at the time, but we would've had to wait 3+ weeks for it. I'm actually considering keeping it, just because we have Never had a problem with the car. It's very safe, Very fun to drive, and mine is perhaps one of the Best Kept ones out there. Has Only enjoyed Full Synthetic Oil Changes throughout its life. Brakes replaced 1x. Spark Plugs replaced 1x at 105k miles. Doesnt have a timing belt and the chain is Still going. I cant say enough about this Monstrous Car! She's a Beast And A Beauty Combined into one.

Best car I've ever driven. Infiniti doesn't hold its value like Lexus, Acura, etc... Why? Passing power all day long, sexy masculine looks, solid fit and finish! I have 229,000 miles on mine... bought it with 89,000 4 years ago... so I load 35k per year on her. This car will probably run forever!

I bought this car in 2007 with 57K miles on it. I love this car. Very responsive and the quality of this car is awesome. I've only had 2 repairs with this car, radiator and steering fluid replacement. Mind you, it's best if you immediately repair any issues before it gets worse because it can get pricey. I engine lights comes on from time to time. I believe its because of the amount of oil in the engine. Once I add oil to lights come off. Who knows! Once I felt my radiator was going bad I fixed it pronto. Trust me you will save lots of money. Car has a very smooth ride and it has never failed me til this day. The biggest problem I have with this car is that its a gasaholic! Terrible

I have owned about 30 cars, old and new, from sport cars to luxury cars to family haulers, and my used I35 has impressed me more than anything I've ever owned. It is the perfect blend of sport, luxury and utility. Build quality is so good the car still looks and drives like new, even with 120,000 miles on the clock. This is one car I could own forever, since it has the best of everything, and actually could last forever!

I purchased this 2002 infiniti in nov of 2008 used with only one previous owner and 90,000 miles on it. Overall it's been a great car with a few fun luxury perks to it. The gas mileage isn't bad for a V6 engine and for how quick it is. I've had to replace my 6 disc CD changer once (which was pricey) because I had a skipping CD inserted and it disabled my entire dashboard. Apparently it was a problem my repair guy said happens to this model of car...? I also had to replace my rear brakes. It's a fun car to drive, but the repairs are pricey- which is something I expected anyway with a luxury vehicle.
