This is the 2nd Q50S Red Sport I've owned. With 400hp and 350lb torque, the thing is a screamer. Very fun to drive and a great value for the $$$. Few downsides: exhaust note sounds like a Ford Focus, 19" instead of 20" wheels, very outdated user tech for the driver, too much chrome on the exterior. UPDATE...June 2022. Despite it being a really fun car to drive, my friend's new ride, bought in November 2021, caught my attention. He bought a 2022 BMW X5 M50i with its twin turbo, 32 valve, 523hp motor. I bought a M550i sedan, with the same motor, the following February. The BMW is far more expensive, of course, but the technology and sophistication is in an entirely different realm. My former Q50S Red Sport looks quite primitive by comparison. I'll be interested to see if Nissan decides to invest in a major update to its higher-end Infiniti's. My guess is that they'll soon abandon the current Q50 platform. Will it be replaced with another high performance V6 or V8? I doubt it.

Everything you expect from a good car. Ours is a Q50-S, with nicer seats, bigger wheels and brakes, and all the tech safety options you can get. Great car which gets a lot of compliments.

For the longest time, my wife and I have been fascinated by INFINITI vehicles, to own the I series, G series (sedans and coupes), multiple Q50S and QX60 SUV's, I still think the INFINITI Q50S 3.0t AWD Sport Sedan (regular sport) is the best car for your money. Yes it might lack some "futuristic" interior trimming or exterior design but does it get the job done? Is it still satisfying? OF COURSE IT IS! Let's face it, what's not "out dated" now a days. As soon as you buy an electronic or a car for that matter, the next year there is something new about it. Not that this is a Porsche 911 or anything but performance is on par! So when driving this car, you mainly focus on the drive and handling... not some fancy interior lighting that can change to 20 different colors. Exterior design is very inspiring - from the front headlights to the taillights. My model doesnt have a carplay but it really doesnt matter because we never use it in my wife's car (2021 Subaru Ascent - review coming up soon) anyway. This is my 3rd Q50S Sport sedan and overall... I'm a happy camper, but of course there are some things that I dont like about my Q50S Sedan! The run-flat tires are nice for what it's meant to do (increase trunk cargo space) but not so much for the ride quality. Early morning/first drive for the first 10 mins or so, it sounds like I have a flat but once it warms up, the sound goes away. Not that I've taken it to the tracks or anything but the couple times I've pushed it on the ramps, you can definitely feel the loss of traction or notice that you have a set of run-flat tires on. It feels like the car is literally riding on the steel sidewalls and heaven forbid you hit a pothole or a small curb. Just the thought of it is scary! But I will say that they are pretty strong. Many times I've hit potholes so hard to have surly blown the tires or damaged the sidewall etc, but nothing came on the odometer display and didnt notice any damage on the tire/wheel either. Conclusion... I'd definitely get another one even if they dont change the body style, which I'm hopeful that they will in another 2 years! No other car can come close to the features, technology, performance and not to mention the price of this car!

This is my second infiniti, jumped from a 2016 into 2019. The ‘19 engine and turbos slightly less aggressive than my ‘16 same engine but the power delivery slightly off. Overall happy with the car. The positive is that after 60k miles no issues to speak of, just oil changes, tires and brakes. Don’t change with non oem brakes and pads they always have noise since they don’t match exactly. Suspension is compliant but could have been a little firmer especially if you push the car, transmission is good but not great. My comment on transmission is good not great is due to the engine helping the transmission since the engine is the star of the car. One issue which warrants discussion is the turbos which sometimes seem to take a little to much to spool and that makes acceleration hesitant.
