I guess it depends on why you are buying the car, and how much money you want to pay. I think that the M45 price is too high, but then again so is the M35, unless that price comes with 0.9% financing. I believe that there is also a gas guzzler tax on the 45. To all of you out there with 35x prices less than 42,000, r u getting any special financing from Infiniti? |

Just as the name indicated, it is for luxury and you need to pay extra to get luxury. If it comes at a price that everyone can afford, it is not luxury any more. The same goes to premium, exotic, etc...

However, I think that both M35 and M45 have plenty of performance for most people. I for one, was looking for an all wheel drive luxury car that had good all around performance (handling, braking, acceleration, ride, etc) but was not specifically concerned with neck breaking acceleration. I also wanted a luxury car that provided ample room for its occupants (front and rear). After comparing such automobiles as the BMW 5 series, Acura RL and Lexus GS, I found the M35X to be a considerably more complete package than any of these three. This car is closer to the size of such cars as the BMW 750i and Lexus LS 460 while being closer in the price range of the first three I mentioned. Add to that impeccable reliability and you got a winner. So, while I think that both the M35X and M45X are more than competitive with other luxury brands, I did not think that paying additional $$ for the M45 to simply get better acceleration was worth the extra money in my case. Don't get me wrong, I like HP as much as the next guy but when purchasing this kind of an automobile it is not my only consideration. A sports car, definitely. I found both of these cars to have excellent handling, however I found the ride of the M35X to be a little softer, which I preferred. Finally, by purchasing the M35X, I feel a little less guilty about the fuel economy. Instead of purchasing the worst gas guzzler on the planet, I purchased the second worst gas guzzler on the planet  Infiniti really needs to do something about that.
