Infiniti must be desperate !!!
#31
my friend bought a brand new loaded Infiniti FX45 a few years ago. he drove it like a baby and always did the dealer recommended services. the transmission blew just after the warranty expired and the car was no longer driveable. he needed to replace the transmission - it could not be easily repaired. i think it cost him $4K+. anecdotal evidence but it's enough for me to look at Infiniti with a very skeptical eye.

That's why I rely on CR and JD Power reports. You are not basing your perceptions on one person.

it's one data point of many. take it for what it's worth.

I forgot to respond to the OP's question.
I don't have numbers separated out by model, but Nissan sales were up 9.4% for 2013 over 2012, while Toyota's were up 7.4% for the same period. So Infinti's sales could be down, but that would be against Nissan's trend. If sales are down, some of the possible decline could be attributed to buyers holding off knowing the new Q line was being introduced.
