I bought this car for the luxury, performance and reliability. I love it except...all the maple moldings on the inside of the doors had to be replaced (turned out to be bad glue). Infiniti had no problem replacing them. At 65K miles the front left wheel bearing went. Haven't ever had that happen on any other car. At 80K miles the transmission went - not in any forward gear, but in reverse? I generally keep my cars for 150K miles and I've never had transmission problems or even had to change a clutch. Needless to say, I'm disappointed.

This vehicle is the most maintenance-free, reliable vehicle I've ever owned and I've owned two cadillacs, two lincolns, a pontiac, a ford and a volkswagon. The Infinity wins, hands down. One mechanical failure in 10 years of ownership - a radiator leakage. The car still runs like new but I'm getting old and would like one last car before I throw in the towel and am considering a used Infinity Q70. That would cap my driving history off nicely. The M35 now has 148,000, all without repairs. Maybe I'll keep it for a while longer.

The best Midsized Luxury Sedan

I used to own the Q45 and switched for all wheel drive (Ausi A8). After 8 years of German cars I am back. This car is really well thought out and is quality throughout. It rides great, although i might have preferred the 8 cylinder M45. It has plenty of get up and go, so maybe i will get used to it. Everything else about the car from the handling, comfort, appearance and space is fantastic. I am a big guy (6'3") and I have plenty of room for me and the person sitting behind me. The stereo is very good and it doesn't matter what your source of music is, the car can handle it. I looked at the Acura RL, Lexus GS and the Audi A6. M35x was the clear winner.

I've owned this vehicle for 6 months and felt it was appropriate to write a review. The drive is like a sports car feel in a family vehicle. Response is quick and braking is very good too! The only slight disappointment is road noise but that is expected considering the performance handling assets. Overall, the car is unbelievably quick and the Bose sound system is one of the best I've ever seen in a luxury vehicle. We've only put 10K miles and dependability seems to be there. Dealing with the dealer on maintenance issues has been pleasant but not cheap. I would recommend this vehicle for one whose tired of the basic economic family car, tired of the SUV mode, and the best value.

Great Car, but a Real Gas Guzzler

I switched out of my E Class Mercedes after years of electrical problems into one of the best cars I've ever owned. The quality of the car is unsurpassed, the dash beautiful and the seating absolutely comfortable. My Mercedes was anything but reliable with numerous problems and never dealers never able to fix them on the first, second or maybe the third try. On the other hand the Infiniti M35x is perfect. There's room for five and large trunk and a great sound system. My only complaint is the awful gas mileage. In the city it averages a bit over 14 and on the road barely 21. With today's gas prices I don't care who you are that kind of mileage is unacceptable.
