Newbie!!!

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!

Hello everyone, I'm Mike and yesterday I returned my 2014 graphite q50 and picked up a 2017 Iridium blue q50 sport with black interior. The dealer threw in a set of wheel locks, but I'm still a little worried, because I live in NY where I know rims get stolen. I live in a house so I have a driveway/garage for my car, but I'm worried about when I actually go somewhere and spend the night with the car parked in the street. Should I get another set of wheel locks for extra security or am I being too paranoid. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome !!

I got an Obsidian black over Stone Q50 Red Sport, but if they had Iridium blue I would have been tempted, nice color. I've had mine 10 months are really like the car, great engine.

Can't say about the wheel locks, don't know your area, but better safe than sorry, why not get them?

This is a quiet forum, not a lot of activity, at least in the Q50/60 area, welcome aboard. Got any pix ??

I haven't taken any good pics of the car yet. I'll probably take some this weekend. I did notice that there's not a lot of activity in this forum. Years back when I was on the Mitsubishi eclipse/Eagle Talon forums, it was pretty busy.

I add the Infiniti branded Motorsport exhaust (w/mufflers, not the straight pipes), the stock exhaust was too quiet for me, and here in Texas the RWD Red Sports get Dunlop Sport Maxx summer run flats, they stink, getting plus size Michelin Super Sports as soon as I get some value out of the Dunlops. Other than that I LOVE the car, makes me smile every day........... ;)

Congrats on the new purchase, I just picked up my Q50 this weekend too. I was searching forever for a Iridium Blue I'm guessing you got to it before I did lol I had to settle for a Graphite Grey

Hey Infamous_P, congrats on the new acquisition. Did you lease or buy? I’m in talks with Infiniti about the AWD Red Sport and looking to see what kind of deals can be had.

I leased 2k down $499 after tax monthly payments, lots of dealers have 2017 just sitting for almost a year with the 2018 right around the corner so you definitely can talk them down when it comes to pricing. They

Congratulations infamous. I got mine from infiniti of bayside. I thought about holding out for a 2018, but there just weren't enough real noticeable changes.

My previous q50 was graphite. That was my favorite color until I saw the blue.
