Not as flashy but just as nice

Traded in a 09 Maxima for the 08 Infiniti M45X. I test drove the 08 G37 and a 08 BMW 550. The G 37 actually drives better but I figured I would get the top of the line and go with the M. The car does not turn heads but as the other reviewer put it, you get pampered when you get inside. I had a Maxima prior to this so I understand all the gadgets. Everything is laid out well. It has great power, you will not get embarrassed on the acceleration lane and on a smooth road you cant tell the difference between 65 and 85. The surround sound is like a concert hall. Around town the ride is a little bouncy, you will feel most bumps in the road and the M goes through gas.

I bought this after testing the 550i. outstanding performance. Handles like a sports car but rides like one (19"wheels). Interior is quiet and serene at high speeds. I find myself regularly doing 100-120mph without even feeling it. Exhaust note is sweet. The best low beam headlights in any car I've driven (the road is evenly carpeted with bright white light) but strangely very lousy high beams. Leg room in the front and back is class leading

I purchased my 2008 used with 78,000 miles. Comfort and acceleration is more than acceptable. Location of controls are intelligently placed. This particular M has all the packages minus sport and all wheel drive. The Tech, Premuim and Comfort packages are amazing. 14 speaker Bose surround sound with drop down DVD player are a plus with the power reclining rear seats. The only draw back on this vehicle for me is the road noise. That being said, I just turn the music volume up a bit. Which never hurts my feelings. Overall, I love this car.

Better than the E500

I have the Sport model. Exciting car to drive with all the extras that a driver could desire. I don't find the control center confusing, but rather find it loaded with useful features. I push the car hard on winding roads and I find it very responsive and easy to handle. (It compares favorable to BMWs I owned in the past.) The gas mileage is not good, but that is the only disappointment (especially when premium hit $4.00 in Santa Barbara.) All together, I highly reccomend this reasonable priced luxury sport sedan.

Better Than All Competitors

After thoroughly reviewing several cars from BMW (3 and 5 series), Jaguar (XF), Mercedes (C class), Lexus (IS F), I settled upon the M45 sport, almost fully loaded (lacks mobile DVD system). Some of these cars are like comparing apples to oranges but, the M45 above all others is best in overall value to performance – it has the best of all worlds. It offers great performance, plenty of space, excellent design and the best technology features of anyone. While all the other cars were always sorely lacking in some features (for example, the IS F lacks space, the Jag lags in technology, etc.), the M45 simply glimmers best in everything overall, and at a respectable price comparatively.
