I have a 2003 sedan which is basically the same vehicle. I have 100K on it now, no major issues just normal maintenance. I plan on keeping it a couple more years, with actually more planned driving - 20K per year upcoming.

Putting tires from Costco on an Infinity is like buying a Ferrari and painting it pink!!!!
C'mon, you drive a nice car, it deserves good rubber!!!
It will re-pay you!!

Sounds very promising.
Other than breaks and tires.. did you incur any major costs? Should I be worried about anything? I just got a 750Li Beamer and I am paranoid about potentially paying premium maintainence costs for the Infiniti (Beamers eat you up on maintainence).
Thanks

I got the 40K service done at the dealer - but boy or boy are they a rip-off. Its best to look at the specific things included in the list and get it done from like Midas or something.. Belts was a part of it. I believe the next service is around 60K or so - there is a list of these recommended actions available online. .Just google it.

I just hit 92K miles on my 05 G35X. So far no problems. I changed the brakes once at 45K and I'm about to change them again. I plan to keep the car at least one more year and should hit 115K-120K miles. These are great cars.

I have approximately 192,000 on my 04 and car continues to run great. Put 180 highway miles a day about 4-5 days a week. I am going to drive until the wheels fall off. If you run the interstate, use synthetic oil and change every 8-10k miles and you should be good to go. Also, when its time to replace rotors get some after market models from Brembo and warping problems should go away.

SL530 you say you have 192,000, did you change the timing belt?
