If the only complaint the "journalists" had about it was "muh outdated interior" (AKA it doesn't have a tablet glued to the dash), then it must be a good car.

>>29079381Huh?
>>29079381it has a regular 7 speed AT with a standard torque converter. it shifts pretty fast too with a transmission tunehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Kd_RxZ-6AI
>they didn't build it
>>29079376I've heard some anectodal evidence where a Nissan tech said he replaced more VR30s under warranty in 5 years, than he repaired VQs in 20.
>>29079388They still did a Nismo version however, but it wasn't for Burgers.
>>29079394the nismo is a bodykit on a Q50 Red Sport 400. Nothing makes it better in any meaningful way than a RS400. >>29079388yes that is sad. great looking car. the vr38 they installed in that car made more power than the 7 speed they pulled from the q70 could handle for production purposes. at the time, they were also unsure that it would sell in any volume to recoup costs at a time they were bleeding money.
>>29079393they blow the turbos and its a engine out job lol
>>29079376Japanese cars are not good cars
>>29079431My 2015 4runner has 789340 miles on it and runs perfectly.Also I have an f250, tesla, bwm. God Im such a chad
>>29079478>My 2015 4runnerSorry to hear that
>>29079478I've banged your wife in each of your vehicles
>>29079529>>29079532The inbred pickup driver fears the samurai.
>>29079537I'm neither inbred nor a pickup cuck nice tryBy the way sorry about the cum stains
>>29079376>auto only
>>29079393Just the turbos, and it's under extended warranty now for the affected years. In extreme cases the turbo can take out the engine if not caught quickly enough. I think the biggest problem is going turbo brought in the WRX chip tune dipshits that just boost the hell out of it with no additional mods until it pops and then puts the stock tune back and cries to the dealer.
>>29079478How in the ever loving fuck can you drive that much? I drive like a tenth of those miles in the same time interval.
>>29079552Like anything is nowadays.And autos have surpassed manual in every possible metric including acceleration, MPG, reliability, longevity, etc. I don't like it either, but buying a manual for a ~2010+ car is just being stubborn. Newer manuals are babycuck shit anyway with auto-rev matching and anti-stall assist and shit, they're basically automatics with some extra LARP.
>>29079386>only 7 speeds
>>29079716excuses excusesno manual no buy
>>29079845Post all the manual cars at the same price point you bought new
>>29080061excuses excusesno manual no buy
>>29079376The VQ one is amazing, the VR30 can make impressive power with minimal mods, but the stock turbos are almost guaranteed to fail unless it's one of the more recent built cars (which are mostly still low miles and expensive). It's a little heavier than ideal (though barely heavier than a G35), and it is auto only, but it's a fantastic car if you want something with power, RWD, can handle, and isn't some smashed pancake car that you can't get out of in a parking lot.
>>29082085Vq37 and awd is available too, my brother just got one of those. Really nice car.
I love my twin turbo q50.
>>29080324So you wouldn't have bought one anyway, got it
>>29082575Correct, I wouldn't buy one because it is auto onlyno manual no buy
>>29079845My penis is manual. Come shift it.
>>29079376>autotragic eggshit
>>29082643Why would you want other men to touch your penis? If you're worried about testicular cancer there's doctors for that stuff, letting other men touch your penis is a surefire way to get venereal diseases like gonorrhea, syphilis, and a liking for automatic transmissions (or how it's popularly known, gay homosex)
>>29082637You wouldn't have bought one even if it had a manual, prove me wrong
>>29082658He literally doesn't even own a car. You are responding to a favela monkey whose passion for hating on every existing car surpasses any known metric.
poverty warriors rockin rustboxes be like>muh manuals
>>29083031Maybe Infiniti wouldn't be irrelevant right now if they invested their money adding a manual to their allegedly sporty cars instead of paying illiterate indians to shill for their auto only shitboxes no one wants to buy
>>29083046List all the manual cars you've bought new
>>29083046No one who actually bought their sports cars cared about manual so they dropped it, but I guess they should've kept it just so that some favela monkey who maybe would've bought it after 15 years didn't conplain online
>>29083076Which is why Infiniti is booming right now, they can't sell enough of their auto only "sport" sedans, it seems like every 3rd car in the street is an Infiniti "sport" sedan. Honestly other brands like Cadillac and BMW should learn from Infiniti, maybe they wouldn't be a zombie brand that way
>>29083134It's cute if you think manual transmissions is what sells that segment of cars
im busy waiting for the new gen that will be revealed in winter
>>29083180It'll just be the same engine and FM platform, but with tablets inside, like the Z
>>29083046infiniti is irrelevant because they chased the lexus dragon of CUV/SUV and the executive drama at Nissan/infiniti. Nissan as a whole is going through a restructuring that we wont see the full direction of until soemtime in the fall/winter this year
>>29083134CT5 Blackwing dropped manual for the next model year btw
>>29083182so far what is onyl confirmed is twin turbo v6 from red sport/Z, a manual, and a new look. if they can do those three well then the car will be determined on if it has a big ass screen or not (if big screen then it will fail)
>>29083170It's cute that you can barely speak english Rajesh. Truly representing the mindset of the auto only "sports" sedan buyer
