BTW, I did not even know that there was a separate M45 forum, till I saw these posts in Infiniti General. It does not even show in the "NICO Menu" to the left here!

Like I have said before, I think Infiniti owners (all models) should post in Infiniti General (maybe only here) ... I hardly have time to look at too many other forums ... yet I would like to read about all of the models!

I dont think parts avaialblity for the M45 will bea problem, as it uses most components that the Q uses. Not to mention tehy sold more...

Did I misread something?

:D Back to my new book, "Numbers for Idiots". Still, sales are slipping hard. Down almost 50% for 2004Q1 vs 2003, which puts them real close to Q45 volume. Perhaps they've stopped dealing on these cars like they were.

It doesnt seem they really care about selling the Q... They're not pushing it like they used to!

I think its best to keep up our Infiniti synergy as it is, and keep you Infiniti guys together in "Infiniti General"

I think I'm with Fred on this one. We're fewer in numbers, so we've got to stick together. :D

And its a blast reading about everyone's M' -- one of my many post-graduate lust objects.

With a shade over 6,000 total units sold this will indeed be rarer than any Infiniti sold except maybe the M30 convertible conversion.

This will be a challenge to find 600 M45 owners and get them active on the forum.

Not sure we have 600 Q45 owners of all years combined........at least 600 people don't post........after reviewing a few months posts.

I am curious about the new M45. I hope the new one has better legroom than the current one.

I would be surprised - that would make it start competing with the Q45 and also lose its original purpose: Muscle car with luxury. As opposed to the Q45 purpose: Luxury car with muscle. :)
