Default Official pricing for the Infiniti M35/45

DETROIT (Jan 10, 2005) – Infiniti, the luxury division of Nissan North America, Inc., today showed production versions of the powerful new 2006 Infiniti M performance luxury sedan, including the 4.5-liter V8 powered M45 and 3.5-liter V6-equipped M35. In addition, Infiniti unveiled the Infiniti Kuraza Concept, an exploratory look at future luxury sport utility vehicle interior design.

Infiniti also announced pricing on the 2006 Infiniti M. The M35 sedan, with 280-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 and 5-speed automatic transmission, features a starting Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price* (MSRP) of $39,900. The Infiniti M45 sedan, with a 335-horsepower 4.5-liter V8 and 5-speed automatic transmission is priced at a MSRP of $46,750.

Infiniti Vice President and General Manager Mark Igo also announced that Infiniti had its best-ever sales year in 2004, recording nearly 130,986 units sold, an increase of 10 percent over calendar year 2003 sales.

“Infiniti sales for 2004 were fantastic and show no signs of slowing down in 2005,” said Igo. “Our product lineup is dynamic, distinctive and defined, and with the introduction of the new M, it only gets better.”

2006 Infiniti M
The all-new Infiniti M, which is scheduled for sale in late February as a 2006 model, captures essential elements of both the Q45 luxury performance sedan and the award-winning Infiniti G35 – and takes them to a new level of engaging luxury and performance. Together with the flagship Q45 and sporty G35, the 2006 M gives Infiniti an exceptional lineup of dynamic luxury performance sedans.

The Infiniti M optimizes both luxury and sport styling to create a dynamic visual appeal. Inside, the interior is highly expressive, combining a driver-oriented cockpit with an inviting design detail.

At the heart of the Infiniti M is the high-performance power of a choice of advanced V8 or V6 engines, with the vehicles badged M45 or M35 respectively. Both engines are mated to a standard 5-speed automatic transmission with all-new short-throw performance shifter and manual shift mode with downshift rev matching. The M35 also features an available intelligent all-wheel drive system.

Advanced technology is abundant on the new M – starting with the standard Bluetooth® wireless technology, an all-new Vehicle Information System with 7-inch LCD screen and easy-to-use controls, Infiniti voice recognition and Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS). M Sport models feature a new Rear Active Steer system, which helps improve vehicle handling performance by adjusting the geometry of the rear suspension according to steering input and vehicle speed. Also featured on the M is an available Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system, which warns the driver of a pending, unintended lane departure.


M35: $39,900
M35 AWD: $42,400
M35 Sport: $42,700
M45: $46,750
M45 Sport: $49,550

Destination (not included): $610

Not bad at all.

Outstanding. I am positive that Lexus will be looking closely at these prices - in fact, I'm betting the new GS prices will be very similar if not the same - except that the new GS won't have a sports package

Yes, spectacular pricing. Hopefully Lexus will meet/match. And Infiniti car sales were up.02 (less than a percentage point)f or the year and the FX is done. The new QX56 helped them.
