this guys a tool, o really driving a rear wheel drive car with lots of torque in the snow with performance tires isnt fun...who gave him this job

[xbabiepikax]

What exactly did they copy mr nazi? At least they didnt copy the way mercedes & german cars break down all the time?

Get a used Lexus gs350 instead. It's a lot nicer and has more room. Don't let the Lexus v6 3.5 (305hp) fool you because I seen one at the race track and he was running 14 flat all day bone stock. Can't beat that plus it's get 24mpg on a ave.

@Yfan86 - A lot of people have had that problem from what I've read. I was really interested in buying a pre-owned M45 and did a lot of research on them. There's this and also a problem with the steering rack. The car will suddenly pull to the left or right while driving. Infiniti seems reluctant to fix the problem or issue a recall. Then there's the intelligent power distribution module (IPDM) issue. When this thing goes out the car will completely shut off with no advance warning.

unproffessional review. he was suprised UHP tires spin in the cold?

@3point5er Even better is his assertion that you need the M35x if you are in a cold winter climate. Hell no, get yourself some Blizzaks, and spare yourself the even worse fuel economy and crappier (though still nice) steering feel. This entire population has forgotten how to handle a RWD car in the snow, it's sad.

terrible review, tells you nothing, what a goof

[Yfan86]

I just negotiated with Infiniti to buy my '09 M35x back after the car stalled on me 4 different times and they couldn't find the problem. Consumer Affairs told me there are other cars that have had the same problem.

I bought my M35x in July 2006, I put a lot of work aftermarket via my local infiniti dealer. The car is awesome. Can't wait for the 2011 M50 and M37!
