Just one glitch
I purchased this car, my 3rd Infiniti, to get one of the last front drive models because I live in snow country. Compared to my 1997 I30, this car has better seats, more power and sharper handling with the 17 inch wheels. There's only one glitch so far - an irritating rattle in the dash when going over expansion strips or sharp bumps. Other than that it's clear that Infiniti seriously believes in the concept of continuous improvement. For the same money as my '97, I have a much more substantial car with more features, better quality, better safety and some serious grunt off the line. Plus you can count on it being reliable - and reliability is the truest luxury of all. This is a good car.
Yet to find anything better
I love my I35. It has great power for a V6, comfortable and reliable. I tend to drive this car pretty rough and it has held up to everything I put it through. I purchased mine used with 96k miles, I've owned it for 8 years now, going past 235k miles and have only made minimal repairs (power steering hose, oil cooler gasket, alternator(due to not being careful when putting oil in the car and it dripping down onto the windings), and the radiator(due to a minor accident)). To say this car is reliable is an understatement. I try to work on my own cars whenever possible and this car is very easy to make repairs on, when needed. When and if this car ever kicks the bucket, I will definitely be looking for another one as a replacement.

A cadillac of an Infiniti
My Dad had this and passed away with 13K miles on it. It was his third I35. I took the car and bought it out after the lease was up. It's 2010 and I have 46,000 miles on it and it drives like the day I got it. This car has been great. It's a big cushy ride with a huge interior and trunk, a monster of a 3.6 liter engine that goes like a bat out of hell. Only con is the mileage but all of the Nissan 3.6 liter engines are beasts and don't get good mileage. Otherwise, the car has been flawless. All in all, this was Infiniti's version of a Cadillac and I expect to have it for a long time barring any unforeseen breakdowns. I guess I'll get a G37 when the interior breaks down.
Excellant car
Great car. Have had many Maxima's previously. This is even more reliable, comfortable and fun to drive than they were. No problems with it. I have put over 35,000 miles on it with only oil changes. The alloy wheels do lose air if a pot hole is hit. Other than that no complaints.

Performs well but no telescoping steering wheel is a problem with long legs
