Bought my wife the 2000 I30t Sport model in September, 1999. I ordered it special. It took them 3 months to get it, because it was a special order with Black leather in a black paint job. Black on black was not a standard option. All the black ones had tan interior as standard. The car was ordered with all available options except navigation. Touring package, Xenon headlights, rear spoiler, extended rocker covers, 6 disc CD changer, 17" x 8" 5-spoke polished wheels, Sport tuned suspension, cold weather package (heated seats & mirrors), even the sunroof wind deflector.
The car has been great. Dealer serviced only since new.
I upgraded to the 17" x 8" chrome Q45 wheels in 2003 and added a front strut tower brace.
So far, the following items have been replaced since new:
Battery twiceO2 sensorsCoil PacksSpark PlugsTransmission rotation sensor (???)Brake rotorsBrake pads twice on front three times on rearTires 4 timesBelts, HosesOil, Coolant, Transmission fluid, Brake fluid, PS fluid, Filters as scheduled
Evie had a chick bump her rear end a few months ago, and it cut the bumper, cracked the tail light, and put a dent in the quarter panel right below the light. I had the following replaced at the Infiniti certified body shop:
Left rear quarter at factory seam - Infiniti part Rear bumper - Infiniti part Left rear tail light - Infiniti part
