Infiniti only has 1 model that sells.

The G35 is they're "best" selling model.

And if you own a G35, you would know why Infiniti is perceived as such.

If Infiniti only had 1 model that sold, it would surely be the I30. Atleast around here anyway.

I doubt anybody with an infiniti or any other luxury car would take the time out of their day to answer some stupid survey over the phone. Hah!

Surveys....mostly bull ****!

When did we start believing in survey's? Someone calls me on the phone taking a survey all they'll hear is the sound of my hanging up. If the survey was about customer service then I might tend to agree. Nissans/Infiniti's run forever if taken care of, I should know my first one was called a Datsun.

I know if we're talking about Inifiniti "stealerships" as they're called... coming in behind those others wouldn't surprise me. (Riverside excluded)

I hate being anywhere near the local one. I'll go Nissan over Infinity any day.
