This is my 4th Infiniti, and this is the best one I have had..yet!! My wife was upset with me that I traded our 06 M45 for a 14 Q50S. So, we checked out the Q70S, we both loved it! It's Beautiful inside and out, all the amenities and more. There is not another single car company out there that can beat the quality that Infiniti offers. Not a single one!! You dont buy a car like this for fuel economy. This car has power and very comfortable for short trips and long hauls. You feel safe in this car. The folks in the back seat have plenty of leg room and equal comfort. You won't be disappointed in this car!!

Great used car but not worth buying new!

Pros and Cons (After driving it for a year) It hasn’t been updated forever, but the exterior/interior design still looks very good. Still has a nice flow to it. Hermosa Blue exterior and graphite interior is a nice color combination as well. With Deluxe Touring Package, Premium Package, Technology Package, and Performance Tire & Wheel Package, my car stickered at $63k. But it doesn’t drive/feel like a premium luxury car when compared to the fit/finish of other luxury brands. My car was a lease turn in and in excellent condition with just 30k miles with brand new tires. I had paid $28k in Oct. 2018 with still decent warranty remaining. It was a lot of car for the money as used but not as new at $63k. Infiniti has to give deep discounts to move them as new. 20 inch wheels really make the car look outstanding. Huge legroom in the back and overall very spacious. Power rear doors is a nice touch. But why not the front? Safety features are very nice. Good power and has been reliable. Areas where Infiniti can improve to compete with other premium luxury brands: Improve ride quality. Ride is too coarse, too stiff, and unrefined for premium luxury car. Ride needs more composure while still being sporty. Improve suspension. Too noisy on the road. Improve sound insulation. All Interior materials including the dash/door, all buttons, knobs for volume/heated seats, leather seat quality, can use upgrade. Still too much plastic. They feel old and cheap. It doesn’t look much different from Nissan. Doors need to close more solidly. Feels too light and cheap. Needs power open/close trunk. The car needs to be 2-3 inches wider. Car looks great from the side but too narrow from the front/back. Improve stereo. Even with Bose 16 speaker option, it’s still not up to par when compared to other premium stereos. Design new key fob. It’s same as Nissan. Improve Keyless Entry. Doors need to unlock without pressing a button. Improve the touch screen, navigation graphics, and cameras. Needs better resolution for the cameras. You get a lot of car for the money as used but not worth buying new. 04/22/2020 update: I traded it in for 2016 BMW 535xi with sport package. Very happy with my purchase. If only had the Q70L better finish and composure, I'd have kept it for a long time.

I have had this car for three months now and both my wife and I love it! We have a Mercedes E300 and love that car as well but the Infiniti is far more interesting and more compelling to both drive and look at. We are objective people and are honest.. This car is simply a beautiful car. Wonder why Edmunds would be so insulting towards this car... Hmmm, something just isnt right!

Incredible value on an excellent car!

I bought a fully loaded Q70S after a very careful review and test drives that included the Jaguar XF AWD Portfolio, the Audi A7 and A6, the BMW 528i and 435. Based on a mix of performance, comfort, features and cost the top 2 were the Jaguar and the Q70S AWD. To me the Jag looked better, but the Infiniti drove better in the sport configuration and has more space for rear passengers. All I can say is that unless what you're looking for is a BMW (because there are people who specifically like a BMW - in which case everything else will fall short) or are Looking to maximize your prestige the Q70 is an excellent choice to consider.

Easily one of the best in class

The Q70 has a stunning interior with excellent fit and finish. The combination of technology and design in the inside is really second to none. Not sure what the reviewer here is talking about, but the engine and ride quality on the Q 70 is great. I have been driving a 2015 for a little over 2 months now and I could not be happier with the car. I really like the active noise cancellation feature. The acceleration is very quick - easily at par with a BMW 335ix in my opinion. Along with the Audi A7, I find the Q70S exterior styling to be the best in class as well. But that is a personal choice. Overall, I'd highly recommend this car. My last car was a 2009 Mercedes C 300 4 Matic (fully loaded). I considered the E350 and Acura RLX as well.
