What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Infiniti M

Price of the Infiniti M: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Sedan 275-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Buying a luxury car after it was owned for 26 months and driven 27K resulted in a 20k reduction from MSRP when I purchased. I plan to drive this car for and additional 10 years.
2006 4dr Sedan 280-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Beats out competition for price and standard features.
2006 4dr Sedan 280-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Buy a used M35, approx 2 - 3 years old with low mileage and get an unbelievable deal.
2003 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 4.5L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 because of this cars tremendous (undeserved) depreciation I was able to pick up a great condition two year old car with less than 20k for about 40% of msrp
Price of the Infiniti M: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 275-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Much less expensive than a similar BMW or Mercedes, but still looks too much like an Altima to cost so much.
2007 4dr Sedan 325-horsepower 4.5L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 New? 35% higher than it should be. Used, holds its value pretty well...two to three year depreciation is 50%+/-
2007 4dr Sedan 275-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 $45,000 for a car that is not much if any better
2007 4dr Sedan 275-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 2007 was a bargin. 2008 lease prices up an additional $100-150 per month for no additional options or performance.
2006 4dr Sedan 280-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Pretty high for this size of car. Best way to buy is used, low mileage.
