the consumer is notorious for buying junk, liking junk, and bragging on junk. Its untelling how well it does.

Yeah, both this and Nissan's move with the new Pathfinder Armada seem ridiculous. Though they are the same while this should be more luxurious, they are both UGLY peices. I liked the old pathfinder and old QX4. Don't understand...

But, then again, Infiniti should be used to this kind of failure (aka. Q45, M45, QX4). G35 is the ONLY exception (pretty sad!).

CONTEST: i will give a million dollars (in monopoly money) to anyone who can spot an M45 on the road!

Default M45

I've seen a whopping ONE M45 so far since its release, and this is in a city of 3 million people, here in So Cal.

from the looks of it, profile more then anything, i am thinking Titan here. Which would also explain the 5.6 liter engine.

Check out the promos on these cars in your local newspapers. A $45K (list) M45 can be had for $10K under. If that ain't a dud, then what is ? The Q45 failed miserably to do anything in the lux car market. Several redesigns later, no one cares if it dies or lives. Think that isn't a dud ???

Your neighbor got a darn fine car that nobody else wants nor cares about. Good for him. I'm sure he got a great deal too.
I've seen enough of them around... sure they dont sell all that often, but that doesnt make them bad cars... just not well thought-out for making money... or just a hit-miss kind of thing
who knows tho; Lexus may make a superiorly ugly new GS soon and you can be swallowing your own medicine

i'll give you an address to send the money, i've seen one about every week since it debuted...
i usually see about the same amount of GS430s as well... all the other GS's are GS3s

I agree with Dimiscus.... UGLY POS... I can't believe that Nissan/Infiniti would make something that ugly...

just when you think that Nissan is on a come back trail with its beautifully shaped 350Z/G35, they go and waste a bunch of money on this durangling, escalading, exploring, but not quite 4 running an expedition nor excursion POS.

this model is going to end up as one of the classics just like the Aztek with only 2 models ever sold, and one seen on the road.
