You can lease an SV for about 375/month for three years at 0.9%. That's why people buy Maximas.
They've banned so many technologies at this point, it's essentially a spec series.
I guess the Caliber CVT I tried totally ruined CVTs cars for me, forever.
Quote from: ArticSteve on February 05, 2016, 06:49:54 pmI didn't think of that. I suppose a Nissan dealer can sell an Infiniti car and service it too. We should ask Artic.NO. Wouldn't be a problem changing the oil, etc., but zero warranty work.Not true at all, had a front sensor on mine replaced under warranty at my local Nissan dealership.

Ridiculous that you can't get a sunroof on the SR.

Unless you are a rental shop.The only reasons might be if a buyer only looks at price (Maxima may be discounted or a used bargain?) and economy. The Q50 is pretty heavy on gas at least based on the printed numbers.$100 a year difference according to this. $5k difference in starting price (US) is why they still sell them.

He's free to call Saint John Nissan and ask if there was warranty work done on a white Q50S about 3 three weeks ago.

But I'm on my 5th Infiniti vehicle since 2004 and have needed three warranty visits during that time frame.........and ALL of them have been completed at my local Nissan dealership in Saint John.

It's wrong to poo-poo CVTs as not sporty - they were banned from F1 for their performance advantage long before they were added to Sentras and Versas. Still the Maxima is not a 4DSC, visibility is too bad, too much understeer, too heavy. It's more fun than most mid-large sedans, though.
