I must say, the M45 looks BEAUTIFUL in person. I tailed a silver one a few weeks ago.

At first, I thought it was rather unappealing to the eye in magazine photos.

Anyone who looks at M45 photos with disdain... I suggest going to the dealer and taking a look!

Yeah, those M45s are very hot. I sat in one the other day at the dealership. The 2-door coupe (G35) also looks good, but the cluster of people around it was too thick for me to try it out personally. The salesman said they are on four-month back-order.

I live in Seattle, on the Eastside, and I see quite a few Inifinitis every day. Mostly the newer ones. I have seen one FX45 on the road. My hubby LOVES that vehicle for some reason. Someone at my work drives a brand-new 2-door G35. It is usually parked next to a very-similar looking Lexus coupe - they are both silver. There's also a Nissan 350Z in a royal blue color that looks hot.

My car (Ivory Pearl with tan leather interior) is not in that great of shape. It has a little body damage on the right back door, and the bumper paint on the back is flaking. Plus it bounces like a pogo stick right now. The leather inside is good except for the middle armrest and a bit on the driver's seat. I bought it at 196,000 miles last summer, and it was like that then. But I still feel like a queen driving it!

1000 times better than a G35? Come on, aren't you being a bit too generous there? A 91 Q?

Wow! Didn't much care for them when I first saw 'em. Got to see one up close & personal while riding my bike about a month ago. It was silver & looked pretty darn good. The spoiler on NICO member's M45 really sets it off.

I swear here in Indy, there are more QX4's on the road than all of the other Infiniti's combined. I see probably close 10 or 15 a day all over town. On the other hand, I see maybe another G35 once or twice a week. I guess us Hoosiers, love the SUV's. At least they are Infinit SUV's rather than Lexus.

How could I forget.I just got my G35 in January.But, it handled really well in the foot and half of snow we had the entire dang winter. I'm sure a foot and half doesn't like much for some people, but for Indiana that is ****e load. It just kept coming until sometime in late February.

Yeah.... The Q doesnt do too well (I got stuck backing up that driveway with just ice, and while attempting to do a power slide, and while backing up out of a parking space that was just dirt)..... Fortunately, I have a set of snow tires for next season!!

That picture was taken in March, BTW!

My trip continues. now im at texas A&M. over the past two days of driving... i've seen 2 puke greenish I35's(i swear they were the same car.. but the odd of that in dallas? slim to none.), the perviously mention QX4, a J30, a nice looking FX45. so in two days in texas i've seen more infinitis than ever before. too bad they were all on the move and i didnt have a chance to tag them.
