Found a nice deal on a 2003 Q45, 37k miles, loaded, one-owner, for about $22,500

This is a $50,000+ vehicle brand new.

I have a 2006 Honda CR-V with 4000 miles that I don't need now that I have my Suburban. I only owe $16,500 on the CR-V. So I figure if I get top trade of $22,500 I will be able to get a nice deal and really end up after taxes and title owing just $18,000 on the Q45.

Would love to hear from others if they have any experiences with this vehicle and if this is a decent deal.

Sounds about right to me. For what you get, it's a hell of a deal.

I own one (2003 Q) and got a great deal also. You'll love it. Outside is good. Interior is top notch... Performance is better than most especially at that price point.

Based on Kelly Blue Book private party values (not retail) that's still a really good deal. I put in that mileage on a Standard Q, no options checked - and came up with 24,xxx-27,xxx depending on condition ranking.

I would absolutely have the car examined for prior body work before you buy it! Something sounds a little too good to be true here...

As Dennis said, try to negotiate the Infiniti extended warranty in... it's really nice to have full coverage to 100K on a car with so many expensive parts and options.

Good luck!
