- I have been considering buying an Infinity J-30 for a while now.
- I took a test drive the other day and here are some comments:
-
- 1. Overall -- very nice drive and handling
- 2. I was surprised at the level of engine noise on acceleration. The
- salesman said this is "by design" to give the driver a sure
- feel for what the car is doing.
- 3. Seemed small in interior room -- especially in back seats.
- 4. Sun roof seemed small (but this might be my imagination). Also,
- I was surprised that the sun-roof tilt was just for a "cut
- out section", not for the whole sun roof itself.
- 5. No lights under the hood or in the trunk -- on this expensive of a car
- I would expect (and want) this.
- 6. BUT, I do like the exterior styling and the fact that it is "rare
- to see" on the road.
- 7. The keyless remote is nice -- remote door unlock, trunk release,
- and security system set-off (the salesman says this is great
- for finding your car in a crowded lot).
-
- I am interested in hearing other thoughts on this car -- especially from
- owners.
-
- Also, what type of "discount" from the sticker can I expect on this type
- of car?
