I have the M37 2012. And never had any issues compared to my friends Luxury cars. Still running smooth til this day. Finally got new tires and damn. For got how quiet it is. My tires were pass due 65,000 miles on it.
Live in the Uk, I finally got myself an M37S 2013MY in malbec (sic) black. Stood next to all the latest (2018+) BMWs, Audi and Jags in my staff car park, this car is simply MAGNIFICENT, in a class of its own - bigger. sexIer and classless in all one gleaming package.. Same thing when I go to church, same thing when I take it for a wash (I could see the Tesla S guy even eyeing it). And all without touching the monstrous performance:: you drive up behind any other "powerful" sports car, ( Porshe to Audi RS3 or Golf VR32s especially), people move out of your way, or try to race you, all to a very nice suprise (for them) when the V6 storms into action ; still frightens me and my boys the way the car flies. Dont go with the crowd, or sadly what the press often says, this is one great beast of a car worth all the money, period.
Make a note of the center console layout. To me pretty well designed in tens of Ergonomics for both driver and front passenger. Clean looking center console with basic items. Shifter, cup holder, storage compartment, seat heater/climate and drive mode selector. Note the heated/ventilated seat control switches. Rotary dial instead of push button. Ergonomically that means turning the seats to heat or A/C require a thought out deliberate finger movement. You don’t have to worry about passenger or driver randomly turning on. Same concept for the Drive Mode Selector and possibly a little more critical to avoid engine/transmission damage. The majority of the controllers are mounted high on the center stack and out of the way. Just my observation and I am not even close to a ergonomic designer. Also note cup holders are near the back of the console.....advantage....the cup of coffee, soda, water etc... less risk of spilling the fluid into the seat, drive mode and shift selector switches. I didn’t say no risk but greatly reduced. Modern design and decent equipment/technology without going way overboard. Design may seem slightly dated for some people but for me modern but slightly conservative. I had the M37 and now the Q70L and enjoy them both.
Only things I don’t like about the controls - the seat heater/cooler buttons are hard to use by feel since you need to count the clicks, and there are just too many buttons for climate, audio, etc. (though they aren’t hard to use).
I love this car. I didn´t know they made it with a v8! They just pulled Infiniti from the market here in the Netherlands, not enough sales due to our rediculous goverment C02 fines.
I love my Infiniti M37x (2011-2013 was badged M37 and changed to Q70 in 2014-present) and was very sad to hear Infiniti ceased production of the Q70 line after the 2019 model year. This gorgeous car NEVER got it's due and NEVER got a fair shake from the get-go and I blame Infiniti for that boner...I'm convinced that with effective marketing and proper product awareness integration would have sold a lot more of these cars and may have have prevented the halt of its production. Question is...what is Infiniti going to replace this car with? Right now, all they have is the Q50 sedan and Q60 coupe along with their gaggle of upscale, wealthy-soccer-mom SUV's...pretty goddam pathetic when there is no "flagship" sedan to lead the way...
It never got its praise because nobody wanted to pay S class prices for the same car in and out from 2011 I got a m56 and tbh If it wasn’t for depreciation I would of never bought it
I’ve got the V6. It’s a nice car, good performance and comfy - and I like the looks (though the rear end isn’t as nice as the front). Only thing I don’t like is it’s got occasional interior rattles.
@@contendedandystill have it, only 63k miles. No transmission issues. But within the past year I’ve had two expensive repairs: leaking sunroof due to clogged drain, and worn out control arms.
Inifiniti hS always made beautiful cars but their interiors as of lately seem outdated especially when there are soo many competitors that have a cheaper msrp and offer a more modern interface and interior. Still a great car overall
INFINITI you are committing a serious error by discontinuing production of the Q series and the Fuga Have you lately observed the latest releases like the BMW Gran Coupe and clearly see they have imitated the Q series? Please consider reviving the models don't abandon them for they are gorgeous Maybe you consider enhancing a few features but generally keep the shape of this beauty
I always liked the look of these cars and considered getting one in its last production year (2019). I test drove the 3.7 with the standard wheelbase. However, I found the tech way too far behind the times. It wouldn't even recognize my iphone. I also thought it felt like a heavier car and didn't feel agile as I expected an Infiniti sports sedan to feel. Overall I was left with the feeling that I would come to regret the purchase if I went through with it.
@danyoyoh Same here! Mo sh*t, mean mo problems! You find yourself unable to go to work one morning because the Wi-Fi went out in your ashtray, and that was connected to the starter ..lol
I've had the Fuga 250gt for a whole year but the performance and comfort are uncomparable with sedans in her category. Push on INFINITY and also consider the Africa markets as well in your future endeavours
@ sadly we have only g80 in middle europe.. and its more focused on rear passangers comfort than drivers passion. But thanks, i didnt even think of genesis brand cause i didnt know it exists
That brown plastic looks terrible, mine has Japanese white ash interior which is a million times better. Europe and Japan also had other options like flat black and carbon fiber.
MexicanBagpiper96 it’s a luxury car what’s the point of a manual.............. if it was a Porsche 911 sure manual but it’s not a sports car. It’s a cruiser there would be literary no point.
BMW ///M What's the point? I've owned a An Acura CL Type-S with a manual transmission and an Infinity G35 Sedan with a six-speed manual. You're talking to the wrong guy. If that's really how you feel about it, then what's the point of those half-ass paddle shifters luxury cars come with. They may be quicker but it's not the same experience. You can jave a luxury car with performance in mind, I've had two. I'm not saying it should only come in manual, I'm saying the option should be available for those of us who like to drive. If you want to have nothing but passengers seats in your car, go for it.
I understand your point that it proobably should offer a manual, but I bet they don't because research shows very view would order one. I had a 740i. Very nice car, very quick, good handling, not sure if it had a manual option, didn't care because I didn't want one. Not why I bought it. That's why I have my 2 seat sports car.
For this car, I'd rather see the ZF 8spd in it as opposed to the Jatco 7spd. That ZF box has some really impressive response, especially in the RS7 and Charger ScatPack.
I bought this Infiniti QL70 2016 brand new. I have been driving since Than. Great Car for the value and comfort. . I will not go back to my BMW 528I .
@Yemi and its Faster than the 335i
I have a 2012 M37S which is the previous name for Q70 but the same car. 150k miles and still drive and look like a new car. Zero issues until now.

I’ve connected 3 generations of iPhone up to iPhone 13 pro to my Q70 (2016) with no issues.
Still a very good choice
Only thing mine is missing is remote start. All this money I spent and I cant start it from inside my house?
Should be standard on a car that costs that much. Ridiculous
@@mikelowry7730 you came back a year later to reply on your comment
Did you guys record this in City Of Industry
by the way, I added remote extra and was installed by Dealer free in 2016.
I would set up this q70s v8. I put 20" work wheels vsxx, drop it rsr coilovers.
It's no longer a Q70 at that point, but a crime scene instead 😂
I've had the Fuga 250gt for a whole year but the performance and comfort are uncomparable with sedans in her category.
Push on INFINITY and also consider the Africa markets as well in your future endeavours
I got one 🎉🎉🎉🎉
what do u think is a best from these: Jaguar XF, Mercedes E-Classe, BMW5, Audi A6 or Infinity Q70? For me its Jag
@ u mean G80? well its a bit expensive.. around 70k Euro.. whats best in category 50k Euro and rear wheel drive.
@ sadly we have only g80 in middle europe.. and its more focused on rear passangers comfort than drivers passion. But thanks, i didnt even think of genesis brand cause i didnt know it exists
So q50 or q70 I wanna be zooming
What color is this Q70?
Hermosa Blue
Which trim has the Bose on the seats luxe?
I believe it's part of one the packages.
Mine has the 2.5 liter 6.No power but the 22 inch rims makes it look better than your car in South Africa.Haha

0-60 in 5 seconds is trash for a V8 thats literraly natural V6, a V8 should have a sub 4.5 in todays era
Ok but 60-80 or 80-100 it would overtake a v6.

If only Q70 is fast as a M5
M5's are sexy as hell
