My First Infiniti - 2016 Q50 RS400

In 2014, the G37 Sedan became Infiniti Q50. G37 Coupe and Convertible became Infiniti Q60 under Infiniti's new naming structure - Here's the place to discuss the Q50 and Q60!

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself. I just purchased my first Infiniti this past Sunday. I came from a heavily modded s2k that I sold back in 2012 in order to put a down payment for a home. Previously I had a 1991 sr20'd 240sx. My Q50 came with the tint, Stillen front diffuser, rear diffuser, cat-back exhaust, and spoiler. Sticker was 56k but got them down to 46k. I'm in socal in the Chino Hills/Eastvale area, let me know if there are any meets in the area. I also took a few quick photos.

WELCOME!

Your red sport is beautiful! Just how I would spec mine out if I traded my 3.7 sport! You're really going to like that thing.

Got any more pictures? Any plans for modifications down the road?

I plan on upgrading to the stage 2 Stillen catback exhaust, stillen cold-air intake, and maybe lowering it about 1-1.5 inches all around. I'll wait to see if it can be chipped/tuned, downpipe, and cat deletes. I would love to install blow off valves as well. Rims and tires when the stock 19's are worn down.

Looks great! Was it 46k out the door or before tax? I just posted my own thread with questions for new owners and I'm going to follow this one too. Enjoy the ride.

I hope you are enjoying your Q50. You got a great deal. Could you share with us the contact info of your sales guy? I would seriously consider getting this. Thanks in advance.

Are you running the Stillen catback for the 3.7 engine ???

The new stage 2 for the twin turbo 3.0t is not out yet, I'm on the waiting list at my dealer, Stillen has delayed twice, I'm ready to consider another brand.............

I'm loving the Q50 so far

Yes, its the catback for the 3.7 engine but it fits the 3.0t perfectly. I'll be switching it out once the stage 2 is released.

Look into AAM's exhaust and downpipe. I've heard good things and good fitment. I haven't been impressed with Stillen's releases and constantly missing their own deadlines.

The only other system I can think of is the Fast Intentions exhaust but... if I had to chose, I'd go with AAM.
