2011 INFINITI M56 x 4dr Sedan AWD (5.6L 8cyl 7A)

Prior to buying the M56X, I had a 2006 M45 Sport. I wanted to stay in the Infiniti family. Most because of the reliability of their vehicles and my experience owning an impressive car. I wanted to stay with an 8 cyl car. Not many people are aware of this vehicle since it debut in 2011. However, with minimum exterior aftermarket additions I LOVE my car even more. Wish I could upload a picture. I have had a lot of people ask what year in my car? They find it hard to believe its an 2011. However, since the Q series have came on the scene people are more gear towards the new looks of the car. I love the way my car drives and feel on the road. Its a bigger car but handles fairly well for its size.

This is my 3rd M and is the the best of the lot in all aspects except one. The transmission is a disaster. It has too many gears and is constantly searching for the correct one. Very annoying. It's a magnificent beast on the highway on a long trip. Not meant to be driven around town.

Having previously owned a G-35X, the M-56X is a beast. It doesn't have the handling characteristics of the G-35, which were fantastic, but the M is a bigger car. The 420 ponies under the hood are just awesome. Broke my heart to get rid of it, but we needed an SUV, so now there is an Outback in the garage. I miss the M already!

Better and worse than an M45

Infiniti has gone to great lengths refining many aspects of the M for 2011, but there are still many things that need improvement. While I enjoy my M56 a lot, there are features that worked better on my '08 M45 (such as XM NavTraffic, which is a disaster on the M56 and every other 2010+ Infiniti model). And there are features that are completely backwards, like the armrest button you press OUT to fold the side mirrors IN, and the song selection button you press UP to switch to the next song DOWN on the list. Doors lock automatically at 15mph and you can't do anything about it. And there is so little ability to customize the warning/intervention systems that one is inclined to leave them off!
had an e550

Had an E550 that i liked a lot-but it was not very sporty. The interior is much nicer than the e550. the performance is about the same. i love the change but have nothing bad to say about the E550. Also like the larger feel of the infinity.I think the E550 is more expensive when you consider option for option.
