Yes, Inifiniti's are manufactured with much stricter tolerances and much better
material. You can tell by the little things like the splash shield under the engine is held on by like 10 screws, whereas the Nissan's are held on by these cheap plastic clips that always brake. It took me about 2 hours to take apart the dash to get the stereo out on my G, but takes me about 20-30 minutes to take the stereo out in a Nissan. They are just built way better than the Nissan's.

Nissans are built in Mexico, Tennessee, Missisipi, and Japan. I believe the new plant for the Titan/Armada/QX56 is in Ohio.

after researching bmw's and their reliability, I will stick with the Japanese cars. Or breakdown and get a corvette one of these days if I can get used to the feel of bulky plastic.

since my parents just got that bimmer well see how good the thing holds up. my parents have a lot of friends that have bmws and they consulted them before buying. well will see. If that thing holds up well id definetly consider getting an E90 M3 couple of years from now

yeah. im patiently waiting as the final desings(hopes) are being put to prototype. If they are truly going to have this car out in a year, they have a lot of work to do unless they are keeping this thing under wraps that tightly.

I love the G, but I want something a bit more sporty next.

I await the specs........
