Good looking car, strong engine for the most part, comfortable interior on road trips, but overall a disappointment. Definitely buyer's remorse. The inTouch electronics are buggy, slow, or just plain don't work. Dealer has been really nice, but they can't change the poor quality and design of the manufacturer's electronics. I have a complaint logged with Infiniti Consumer Affairs, and they were also really nice, but unwilling to do anything about the problems I've had. I've had the car about a year and a half, and its been in the shop cumulatively for almost a month. And after today, when several functions of the car electronics disappeared, I now have to schedule it into the shop again. I have never had problems like this with any car I've ever owned. My second Infiniti, but it will be my last.

I used to love the Infiniti brand and my Q50 is the forth one I have owned. Something has happened to Infiniti reliability over the last several years and it's moving in the wrong direction. The worst part is that Infiniti leadership doesn't seem to care. This is also the opinion of numerous Infiniti employees I have talked to. What's good: great engine and performance. What's bad: electronics system is a hot mess. Has been in for repairs four times. The Infiniti InTouch system is a joke. The back of my trunk is already developing a rust spot and the car is barely over a year old. Problems with the electronic door locks that leave me out in the rain trying to get into my car!

Update 2021. Still happy after all these years. I had owned the car for less than a month, when it went in the shop at Harper Infiniti in Knoxville for recall issues. I have owned several BMWs and Mercedes for many years. So I know recall. When my wife and I decided to buy a car we spent months researching BMW 535 xi, and Mercedes c300 sport 4matic and had taken a few out on test drives. They are somewhat nice, but none were just right. As we researched additional makes and models, my wife came across an Infiniti Q50S, AWD Liquid Platinum with black interior. First thing she said was “I found the car for you”. Which we noticed there was only sport model for sale within a 400 miles radius. That got our interest. On a Friday afternoon we went to see this somewhat hard to find vehicle, we drove the car for a couple hours and returned it to the dealer. That night we continued researching, and on Saturday morning we went back to the dealer to purchase the car. We have not regretted it one second. The Q50S is a fun to drive, beautiful, comfortable, strong running car and drives better than any other comparable vehicle I have ever driven. And I have driven many. In 2017 we decided to buy a crossover for a work vehicle. My wife came across a 2009 black on black FX35 AWD and we purchased it on the spot. Another vehicle that I have not regretted pulling the trigger on. Now our BMW CIC, BMW X5, and Honda Element are parked outside.

NOISEY, POOR INFO SYSTEM

I have owned this car for almost a year. Outstanding power, 15MPG city (NYC), 25 highway. Ride can be a little rough at times. Nice interior and outstanding BOSE sound system. Seat comfort and room is fine (6'1"). FOLLOW UP REVIEW: I have now had this car for two years. I have had the car in for two info system software updates with no success. After starting the car the info system fails to boot up a few times a month. When it does boot it takes forever for the icons to appear. There is also a time lag for the rear camera to come on after putting the car in reverse. The seat belt shoulder restraint fails to retract on the driver side. If you drop a passenger off that was sitting in the front passenger seat the seat belt warning sign comes on as though someone is in the seat without engaging their seat belt. I have been told by the dealer that the new models have a faster processor in the info system. The tire noise on concrete highways is the worst. You might as well turn the radio off because you can't hear it at all!!! I'm glad it's a lease. One year left.

Best car ever

This is the best driving car I've ever owned. I have driven it a little over 5,000 miles and on a couple long trips. The only issue has been once the steering pulled to the the left and a few weeks later to the right, like the front was out of alignment. Both times it was random and went away after a few minutes. This car is very quick, nimble and fun to drive. I especially like merging into fast moving traffic. The acceleration will push you firlmy into your seat. Perhaps if you drove this car on a track the drive by wire steering would be an issue, but for everyday street driving its been great. Also, the brakes are “grabby” but are fine once you get used to them.
