The Best Car I have ever Owned!

I've owned this 1997 Q45t for over 10 years and except for normal wear items, tires, brakes, etc. it has not cost me a think to maintain. I just had it at the Dealership to have one of the Exhaust System shields removed because it had come loose, no charge and the service manager said they had customers with the 1997 Q45 with 300,000 miles on them. I have 130,000 and it still drives like new. My other cars for 40 years have always been Corvettes, but I enjoy driving my Q45t. When I bring my Q45t in for service I always get a free loaner, a new G37 which is also fun to drive, but I'm always happy to get my Q back.

Lexus stole my review

I can't believe it, shortly after writing a previous review of my Q45, Lexus came out with a TV ad about a family in their living room cruising at high speed. Talk about stealing ideas.

Infiniti Q45---THE BEST!!!

The name "Infiniti" says it all: they last forever and hold up for infinity! This is the best pre-owned car I have ever had over the past 40 years. It looks & drives like a new car with many advanced(for 1997) luxury features that make it a pleasure to drive on long and short trips. These are "stealth" sports cars designed to look like pure luxury cars...it gets down the road fast and handles like a sports cars while maintaining the look and feel of a luxury sedan...I love my Q45 and suggest that everyone try one of these fine cars, that is, if you can find one, they're scarce & their owners seem to hold onto them forever---which I can now understand!

11 yrs old and 170K miles, runs great..

Hope this helps with those questioning Infiniti Q45 reliability. I have owned this for 8+yrs now, the odometer reads 170K miles. The only parts needed replacement were alternator ($300) and an ABS relay ($25). All else are running flawlessly and my mileage is between 18-21 mpg (within specs). Can't be happier - I hope I can run this for another 5+yrs. Maintenance is simple: Flush all fluids (AT, PS, brake, differential, coolant) every 2 years - doesn't matter mileage or usage. Your vehicle will remain gold. No need to do 30k/60k etc, which are primarily inspection-only.
