Q50 first owner:👴🏻 Q50 second owner:🦹‍♂️

One of the best looking front ends right now

I love my G35 but I'm getting rid of it for the Q50 ...that twin turbo is just to hard to pass up.

Well said bro. Eclipse owner here. I know the pain of seeing something you love turned into a crossover.

I have a q50 red sport this car is quiet reliable gotta take care of it and it will take care of you when it comes down to maintenance don’t listen to dealers it’s a scam change your oil EVEY 3k if motor is being pushed here and there to 4k(I daily drive it ).

Nissan has a long history with the v6 in racing. Very smooth and powerful

We need to stop with with excessive camber to see such a clean car, just ruined

lots of unjustified criticisms and huge german propaganda are among the reasons why such cars are highly underestimated.

love my q60 have had it for over 2 years and there's been no issues

I still like these cars. They are fast and offer AWD.

Got a q60 red sport myself beginning of the year and love it. Same thing but coupe :)

LOVE my Q50 Red Sport ❤ Just got a compliment at a stop light 😍

🙋🏾‍♂️I'll take the 3.7 please. Thank you. Thank you very much.

Bro forgot about the 400hp red sport and mentioning the tuning capabilities

I love the Q50

loved my 14 q50 i got a 17 years old. just got tottaled 2 weeks ago. moved into the q60

I've got a Acura TL Type S and these damn things are my main rivals!!! Love em.... Btw, calling a Merc CLA💩💩💩 an rival is an insult!

It is basically an r35 gtr in a family car version. This replaced the infiniti g35/37 or nissan skyline 350gt.

The q50 is automotive perfection 💯🤘

I see these on the road and I love their style, even stock they're a great modern design do e tastefully w a lot of sport. Very cool.

Buddy this way better in every way than a cla class

I have an Infiti M35H. Never in my life seen another one on the road and it seems that most people dont know it exists lol. Got it new in 2012 and to this day have had no problems with it. I have a 3.5L 300hp naturally aspirited V6 with dual motors that also produce around an additional 70hp. WIth the tune and the custom exhaust system I have, I think im pushing close to 400hp. I smoke people off the line if they are in newer cars, and when im driving home from college (5hr drive) I can pop it into electric mode and enjoy a super comfortable and luxourious ride back home. Love the car and its hella cheap online now.

You're number two option is wrong. The problem is infiniti won't up date this car and is keeping the same thing from 2015. The Q needs the new 9 speed to help the 3.0tt and a better limited slip differential. Plus a digital gauge custer like the new z and a new informant system.

The Q50 one of the best cars ever made

I'm on my 3rd Infiniti. From the g35 to the 3.0 RS. They're great cars and when loved they stay nice a long time. People still compliment my 2017 RS and think it's new.

It’s a cool car ngl. If they would’ve continued with the production of the eau rouge I would’ve definitely copped that.

In my (personal) opinion they should’ve made the 3.7 & the 3.0 as an option. Saying they should’ve kept producing 3.7. If you throw boost at a 3.7 you’re killing it

Man that teal color was clean this is still one of the fastest & best looking cars out there

Such a good looking sedan, and OP is absolutely correct about there not being enough sporty sedans anymore. I had a G37 and will probably buy another one or a 3.7 Q50 just for a reliable and fun DD. Oh and they’re RWD/AWD, not wrong wheel drive. I’d love a Chevy SS, but why when you can get a CTS-V2 for about the same? Chargers are nice but so heavy, German sedans are a little pricey , initial cost and upkeep. I don’t know personally how reliable the 3.0 Turbo engines are, but if you keep oil and water in a VQ37 it will run for a lot of hard miles. My last one had over 200k and didn’t use more than half a quart of oil between changes, and never any issues.

Really great argument I feel old remembering the sedan argument being the coupe argument just a few years ago

As an owner of one I completely agree. The only complaint I have with the 3.0 is it’s expensive to repair and parts are not cheap! On the contrary the car has minimal problems and the issues I have ran into with the car is all maintenance!

some of the nicest body lines youl get on a japanese car

I got a 2017 Q60 and can easily say I plan on keeping that car for as long as life allows me to.

Thinking about getting one as my first car

It is nice… if you want to stand out… get a m56 (5.6 v8) or a 2014 qx70(5.0 v8) I surprise a Challenger/Charger every time I get next to them with either… They are so under the radar since they weren’t as popular as the G…

If I was into sedans I would be going with this car and then an is as my second option buuuuut coupes are better I’m about to pick an 08 g37 6mt so excited

I have a Q50 Hybrid Sport Great car

Vq>VR. My g37 was way more reliable redlined everyday for over 3 yrs never even needed a headlight. My Q blew up with 22 K on it.

Both the 3.7 and 3.0t (base and RS400) are super fun cars to drive. They offer the comfort for normal driving, but when you want a more spirited drive, they deliver.

I dont think anyones hating on these, maybe the interior but nothing else. Qs are underrated

My 2014 has been the greatest first car anyone could ask for imo, never any problems and taught me how to “drift”

I just picked up a 2017 q50 sport with 37k miles. The front end is extremely nice. The interior is classic Nissan but it does have some cool features. Kinda reminds me of a 240sx if Nissan ever made a 4 door.

I’m 53 and i think it’s a good car. Its reliability is unmatched. 2016, I got in 2018, fast forward to 2024(6yrs) and had to do my first major repair@ 3200..valve body sensor. Still not bad after 6 years used cpo.. I’d do another but after a good refresh.

HATERS goin HATE💯😈👌🏽

I had a G35, 37, Q50, and Q60. Loved them all but Infiniti let the tech fall behind and jumped ship. Love that more people are getting them now and you’re right, we should appreciate the sedans we have left 😅

I have a 2014 q50s bought it with 50k miles im at 68k with zero issues love the car so comfy and amazing in the snow, hoping to drive this thing to 200k miles

Ive had a 2008 g35s i loved it i now have a 2009 g37x shits super clean and in a rare color red with black interior wish it was a 6 mount tho and i also have a 2007 m35 that shits like a cheap mayback lol i love infinitis there super fun and theyve always done me good

Q50 with the VQ

I have owned the 2015 3.0 300 awd sport (ice blue). Loved this car so much, I got the q50 redsport awd in 2019. Zero problems. Just maintain it when it tells you too, plus maintenance for Japanese is relatively low $ and widely available. Some updates would be nice: - upgrade to the 9 speed twin turbo - updated 360 camera - add back the spare tire package (had this in my 2015) - Get rid of the Dunlop sport max run flats (they are outdated, expensive, noisy and don’t last that long), Michelin Allseason 4, Pilot Sport Summer, Pirelli or Continental etc. - ventilated seats - update the infotainment, i don’t mind the dual screens but it looks dated now. - electric parking brake - digital rear view mirror Nothing on the list is all that extreme. Too late, the car’s last year now. Unless they decide to move away from EV (slow selling) I think a lot of people bought the 4 cylinder which was for some years a Mercedes engine, hence a lot of the mix up the reliability here.

I bought a 2014 Q50s Hybrid, and I had a lot of issues with the DAS system, but once they replaced the modules with water resistant adhesive, I NEVER had any issues outside of wear and tear. Drove that thing to 220k KM, and it was a great vehicle for me. I agree, a lot of the hate tends to be based on the driver, but the car itself was the best bang for the buck against luxury Japanese makers (TLX and IS). I'll be keeping an eye out for the redesign and would consider it again with a new redesign. Thanks OP for making a level headed video about this.

I have a 2018 Q50 RWD 3.0t with 300 hp. I like it way better than a late model 2020 BMW 330i that I test drove. That experience made me not want a 3 series anymore. Unfortunately Infiniti as a brand isn't doing well and my dealership experience wasn't great, either but the car is fantastic. I've owned it since new. Actually, I first leased it, then bought it after the lease term. There was also a lot of criticism from the automotive press about the infotainment and touch screens but I couldn't care less. It's super comfortable, more than quick enough for me, has very effortless acceleration (I can only imagine the 400 hp version!!!) and is by far the best car I've ever owned. It's a great car. I don't care that it isn't an advanced computer. 😂

The Q50 is a beautiful car!

I have a 2017 Q50 3.0t with no modifications except for a carbon fiber duck bill spoiler. I'd like to modify it slightly, but I have a baby on the way so I can't really justify spending too much money on mods right now. I love the car as it is though.

I think they are beautiful car I would like to own one you're right about the used ones you can buy them relatively pretty cheap and they come pre-loaded

Hands down best looking car to come out since 2014. When this came out every car manufacturer replicated the Q50 body and lines

LOVE my q50’s. lots of issues though outside of engine and trans. engine and trans can run forever when maintained properly. they make 333 hp from a naturally aspirated v6….they tow 3300lbs and have a better sound system than probably anything you’ve heard before. AWESOME in the snow.

Got a awd Altima tryna get a awd q60

I actually really like them, wish they came in a manual though. I don't care if an auto is faster.

Q50 Red Sport 400. 400 HP tt for less than 30k pre owned. Can’t beat that

3-time Q50 Owner! I've loved every one. You're exactly right! It doesn't deserve the hate. Quite the contrary! I have driven and owned many of the competitors you mentioned. I chose the Q50 simply because it's better.

The Q50 competes more with the audi a6 and Mercedes E class it's a pretty large sedan at 190 inches long.

I will always go for red any day

I have an S AWD but I've tuned it. Now sitting at 550hp.

Love the 3.0t q50🔥

Yess that color on the first 1 is trimmm

Should be a non argument. The car is reliable overall. You only hear an influx of problems because there’s an influx of modifiers. Like he said you get for the price? What else at that price point can give you up to 400 hp stock, awd, heated seats, paddle shifters, twin turbo, leather seats. Etc etc etc You start out spanking 95% of anybody on the road off the lot.

The Q50 would be amazing💯if they just did a refresh on the interior. It would bump up sales sooooo much.

Former owner. Other than the harsh ride quality on the run flats it was a great car. However it is now woefully outdated and way too expensive for what you get. To get competitive performance you have to go Red Sport and a G70 3.3 is just much more contemporary and cheaper.

There nice and sound really good with exhaust specially Q50 red sport 400

I have the luxury of driving one every now and then and I love it

Red sport is fire 🔥 my boy has one & he let me drive it . I almost slipped up & totaled his whip … never drove it agian

These cars are bullshit proof. Unlike German cars where you need to get very specific parts or the car won’t like it, Infiniti is extremely flexible, they are over engineered so they won’t break. (If you do, user error, not the car)

Someone buy mine off me already has a few upgrades 2017 but has 2019 body kit q50 Redsport 85k miles has hks blowoffs, AMS air intakes, Mishomto heat exchanger, bc racing coils, front and rear camber kit, front and rear sway bars, AMS Catless downpipes, Revel Stainless Steel Mid Pipe, Rev 9 Q50 Exhaust Axleback

The only answer for me vs my brothers g37xS

And to be honest I've only seen all-wheel drive for this car it's like on the East Coast the rear wheel drive is rare

I agree. It absolutely is in a class above, the price point is amazing for newer enthusiasts or budget builds, while the performance rivals that of cars valued much higher. The looks are phenomenal also, can’t go wrong with a q50 🤷‍♂️

The build quality is hir or miss , especially for being a “luxury” car. My interior has creaks and rattles and it’s a 2023 sensory fully loaded. Feels cheap in many areas. Shame because it’s a fantastic sporty comfortable ride.

I have a hybrid. 360 HP 31 MPG real world 4 wheel drive Those are some impressive numbers

Interiors not the best but it looks good and quite fast for how cheap they are used

I was hoping when they dropped the z they would give the q's a manual option

From what I’ve heard, the three weak points are slow transmission, horrible steering feel, and dated tech which i honestly could care less about since I barely use any of the fancy tech features. The steering is the only thing that would shy me away from

Enterprise car sales has a few of them.

I’m not big on inffinities . But I live sedans I’ll buy large sedans for the rest of my life .

Hating on the Q?!?! MADD. People that hate on this car, just goes to show you how much they don't know about cars 😂 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣🤣

I love the color what is it? I am just looking at all these blues and that’s really nice.

I’m thinking of getting one soon and mfs telling me oh terrible idea it’s a bad car and this and that jeez ppl just can’t let u do what u want do

That car is still sexy looking car..I still have my 2015 3.7 still stock looking just got tinted windows.

It's like the altima energy enhanced !!

The front end is crazy underrated

crazing to see my homie Rajiv's old q

Im driving a Lexus GS right now, was looking at a 2014 Q50 AWD 3.7L.

I love Infiniti Q 50s and my cousin owns a nicely modified one. The only downside of it is them depreciating in price fairly quickly so I would suggest you purchase a used one and bargain.

My 2 gripes as a q50 owner -Interior hasn’t updated since 2015 -the transmission is kinda ass. The 7 speed sometimes struggles to pick one gear and stay in it

I love these cars and really desire to own one some day. And they are extremely popular where I live. They're EVERYWHERE. 😂

Down here in South Florida, these are the upgrades for hood dudes who once drove the legendary Altimas 😂 Also, for those that can't get their hands on the scats and hell cats etc. I like the car but I can't deal with the BS stereotypes down my end. So, I will just avoid it.

Whats the beat year for a Q50?

First 2 Q50s the homie Rajivv 💯

As a G37S SEDAN OWNER (6spd), the mistake w/ the Q50 is no manual option! 2. NISSAN/INFINITI ALWAYS PUNKS OUT ON POWER & TORQUE. 3 LASTLY, INFINITI SHOULD KEPT THIS A G... NOT A Q

Just got rid of Q50. Was leasing and after seeing no more updates or a new Gen from Infiniti, I decided to move on to a better luxury car. I miss it and it was fun to drive but feel like they are becoming the new Altimas that anyone can get their hands on.

They can be nice if they aren’t made to look like a ricer which is unfortunately very common in places like NY.
