I bought my 2008 G35 in 2012 with 78k miles. I sold it in January 2021 with 270k without any issues. During ownership, I only did basic/routine maintenance, replaced alternator and starter with water pump in the 200,000s miles. I changed my oils every 5k, full synthetic. The car was washed and detailed regularly. It was a great reliable car.

Loved my older 2016 Q50S Red Sport rwd. It saw the track 2 4 time a month. 35k plus miles on it fully modded, only issue was the belt. The an old man in a Camry decided to just throw his car in front of me in the rain. Total loss. Now running a 2019 AWD Red Sport. My 2 cents maintenance, maintenance, maintenance. I did oil changes religiously every 3 to 5 thousand miles. Great video as always

@@SpeedCultureStudios Absolutely, one of the reasons I went with Nissan/Infiniti is the value. Provided you don't abuse the car and maintain it (which goes with most vehicles outside design flaws) I've not had a major issue on the 3 different VQ's I've owned. I hear they have had some issues the past decade, but I am assuming that's been in their lower end cars using the 2.5 with some sort of CVT configuration.

My 370Z with its VQ37VHR is approaching 12K miles and is using about 5 oz of oil in 3300 miles. The oil I'm using is the Nissan Ester oil plus a Fram Ultra Synthetic filter, changed at about a 3500 mile interval. After a cold start, I let it idle until the oil temp gets up to about 140 deg F and I then keep the revs from exceeding 2K until the oil temp gets up to about 170 to 180 deg F.

Q50 for sure. Lexus has nicer interior materials but the performance of the Q50 is better. It’s difficult to combine the 2015-2017 tho because as you know the engine platform of the 16 and 17 is different and separates it even further. My brother had an is250 and it was slow and boring but the seats were super comfortable. The 300 isn’t much better. I’d take my 15 Q50 all day.

People say to get it with warranty but why? It’s so controversial how people say it’s good or others say it’s bad. (Referring to the 2014-2015 models) plus if you buy the car to own (cash) does it even come with warranty ??

Doesn’t matter how you pay for it. The dealer may offer a warranty for purchase or the car may come with factory warranty. The VQ is pretty well know for reliability, but you never know what could happen with a vehicle. With a 16+ I would definitely get a warranty.

I have a 2015 with 31k miles. Over the past 6 months it has been in the shop now 3 times. Had the issue with the steering rack where it pulls to the left or right like crazy then goes away but comes back later on. So started with having to replace driver side tie rods. Month later had to replace the passenger side. Get it back cars making a huge clunk metal on metal sound. Find that the driver side tie rod needs replaced again ontop of that the boots torn and needs replaced. Same visit noise still present and the find the steering rack loose and bent so have to be replace. Repairs done still clunking. They find that the transfer case is now the issue cars now been in the shop for 3 going on 4 weeks. Lucky enough I still have warranty so if I hadn't this would of broke me beyond measure. So something for others to be on the look out for.

No thanks. My car isn’t fast but it’s faster than a Lexus lol. I’m joking around. I do like Lexus and they can definitely be reliable, but I’m not interested in them.

Anthony that Has nothing to do with the video lol. We are still waiting to see how reliable the 3.0t is. 3.7 is tried and true.

@@alphav1537 I mean I've had my 3.0 for 32k miles already and have had literally 0 problems. 3.7 Might sound better but you arent getting NEARLY the same performance and mileage as a stock 3.0... reliability seems literally the same as a 3.7.

Anthony Rosario well a Stock 3.0t vs a full bolt on 3.7 will lose! If you start modding the 3.0t you will get issues my friend has a 18 q50 silver sport with 12k miles and he already got heat soak issues . All he did was install down pipes , intake and a tune. I can do the same with the 3.7 and get no issues.

Anthony Rosario to be fair, I am bolt on and tuned 3.7 and get 22mpg and the car also performs very well for what I use it for-performance is relative of course. A tuned 3.0t will beat me in a straight line obviously but all that power won’t help much with an open diff against me on the twisty roads. But my main point is that the vq has been around for 15+ years so reliability has been established. The vr30 has only a few years of being tested-so having a few cars on the road with over 50k mikes doesn’t tell us much yet. I hope it proves to be just as reliable over the years!
