Am I missing out on any options 2011 QX56 vs 2014/15 or even 2012/13?

Been shopping for a 2015 QX80 in white and oatmeal interior and stumbled upon a 2011 with 33k miles for $33k the price is very tempting for the decent mileage to year ratio, so I'm taking it into consideration. Saving over 30k over the 2014/15 model is pretty attractive.

Main problem for me is earlier production year always have little bumps. Were there any changes as far as options/features between say 2011-2013 and 2014-2015?

Not sure about Nissan but my current car didn't get little crap like bluetooth audio streaming and other technology feature ironed out until about the 3rd production year.

And most importantly, any reliability difference?

the major things that came on the 2013+ year is backup assist braking, auto dimming side view mirrors and remote start is standard.

there are some issues with the oil jets on the super first run 2011 models, and if you have a local infiniti dealer nearby, stop into the service side and ask them if they have had any issues with oil jets, timing chains,cats on early 2011 models.
