After ten years with g35 I made the move to the q70 after driving Cadillac CTS and Hyundai Genesis. I like that it sits a bit higher for easier entry for a taller guy--I'm 6'5". And, I have tons of headroom and leg room. Even with moonroof which I haven't had in all prior cars due to my height. The handling isn't as crisp as g35 but it is a bigger car and I was ready for the extra room. Still handles very nicely. I like the Sport mode best--closer the the great handling of the G35. Gas mileage is only mediocre but that wasn't an issue for my needs. Love all the tech stuff--voice activated blue tooth, nav, locks, etc. I like the looks of the exterior and the looks, cush, pampering of the interior. Hoping for the same great reliability of my g35. Well, it's one year later and I'm still satisfied. The all wheel drive was great in the winter snow. Absolutely no maintenance problems (which will jinx me, for sure).

Former Mercedes owner says Infinity better car

I have owned 5 Mercedes including an S Class car. I compared this car to the Mercedes E350 and lower end S class cars, the Audi8 and the BMW's. It is definitely bigger than the E350 and about the same as the Audi, maybe the same or slightly larger, feeling than the S class? I have not compared the specs they will tell you but I am 6'1" and when sitting in the back can't touch the front seat and when in the front it is huge. I bought the car because of the technology package which is one of the tops on the market. The car has a smooth ride, quickly passes cars on the highway and is a joy to drive. This may be the best value luxury car on the market. I strongly suggest the "L" edition for the extra room.

not a brand slave

If you are looking for a RWD, very reliable, athletic, 6 cylinder, luxury car w impeccable fit and finish inside and out, and are not a brand slave to the ubiquitous grey/black/silver MB E350, Lexus GS350, or BMW 5, check out the Q70L. And you will pay $5K-$15K less than a similarly equipped MB E350, Lexus GS350, or BMW 5. On another note; I agree w other reviewers, the Bluetooth and app's are a bit dated. Chip

THis vehicle provides a great experience in both comfort and performance. You never want for pick-up as this gets you moving from a light as fast as anyone needs to move on most streets!! I particularly enjoy the BIG roomy front drivers seat and the cooled and warm seats, as you never know in western New York what the weather gods are going to bring!! In addition, I get a lot of use out of the heated steering wheel as we move into the colder months..The "L" version of this Q70 is just long er enough to catch some eyes as you travel. Furthermore the extra Trunk space as well as back seat leg room make it much easier for travel!! My 5th Infiniti over the last 20 yrs , I believe this too be my best choice!!!I continue to enjoy this vehicle. I recently pubhased an Infiniti Q 60 however, so I will be selling the Infiniti Q70L..

The Edmunds reviewer is flat out wrong....

...or drove some other car! I own a Q 70 for about a month now. Like most people, I test drove all the major competitors. The Q70 engine is one of the great V6 engines around. The same that is on the Nissan 370Z. The base engine accelerates faster than a BMW 535ix and Mercedes E350. The brakes on the Q 70 are great and the audio system is better than what you get on either the 5 series or E class. The interior fit and finish is probably the best as well. I did like the Audio A6 and the A7 interior I really liked! But overall, the Q70 is very comfortable but as someone mentioned the Lexus GS 350 and Acura RLX have quitter ride, although the Q to me has better overall fit and finish and much better styling. It seems to me the Edmunds reviewer did not drove this car at all. He was also wrong on that the premium package is included and not extra even on the base config.
