CarReview's expert review of the M35 / M45 is available HERE See pictures of the M35 / M45 posted in the photo gallery
Summary: Can I saw WOW. I have owned the car for about a month and it seems to impress me even more. I have driven m3's m5's and AMG'S, and my m4.5 litre is just as impresive if not better due it's price hp, and ft pounds of torq. Get's more looks to. Due to the random production. People think it has a bentley / concept lincoln continetial look that is definitly making it's way back to the seen of early retro look. There is no bad styling jugement here I just think infiniti is ahead of there game.
Strengths: Turn off the (vdc) "vehicle dynamic control". And watch the 340hp, 333ft pounds of torq, m45 lay down more rubber than a tire factory.
Weaknesses: Transmison is tricky. Wants to shift to early when engaged in manual mode. "Learn to slap shift fast".

Summary: My M45 is awsome. It drives like a larger Benz or Bimmer, but has a more sportier feel. If you are looking at a BMW 5 Series, take a better look at this car! I owned 2 2003 BMW 5 Series, the first was a lemon which I returned, the second gave me all sorts of electrical problems, so I went to my local Infiniti store and tested several cars. I drove a G35 Sports Coupe which was an awsome ride, but too noisy and too street racer.
I am glad I waited, because I saved $9K on my purchase because of huge incentives with Infiniti on this car.
Strengths: The Engine, drivetrain, build quality, interior quality, price, drive and handling.
Weaknesses: Interesting look to some, kind of an ugly duckling to others. Needs a better LCD screen for navigation, need better wheel tire combo.

Summary: this car is awesome!! Best car for the cash on the market! It has comfort, class (despite what "experts" say) and hp for days!! Looked at new e class and es/gs 300, and they arent even in the ballpark in terms of bang for your buck!!
Strengths: great engine, excellent seats, voice controls
Weaknesses: a bit long (longer than my seville sts) gas mileage is a bit less than advertised...
