The only thing my car doesn't have that i would like is an mp3 jack. Not a big issue with the hard drive/cd player/sat radio.

Buying this car was a bit of a stretch of my cash and I really wanna start saving more cash now. I only have 33k miles on it right now but I wouldn't be surprised if I put 150k+ on this car in the next 5,6, maybe 7 years.

a big reason i went infiniti over bmw was long term reliability. I baby my car. I wash it just about every week, and keep a protective sealant on it. Also keep up vigorously with scheduled maintenance.

I just got the clutch replaced just about when i bought the car at 20k. I don't plan on having to spend anymore on repairs. Well much more... lol

I have an 03 Coupe with 71k on it... I have at least 5 years left of continuous modding to the car so I am sure I will not save any money.. but then I will put this car in the garage and maybe but a 2016 g41 and start from the beginning again.

I've owned quite a few high mileage (well beyond 200k) Datsuns, Nissans, and Infinitis from the 1970's, 1980's, and 1990's. They have all been driven very hard, but they've all had regular oil changes and washings. All were perfectly reliable, much more so than even some brand new cars. I would say that if you take care of your Nissan/Infiniti, it will take care of you indefinitely. My father has my old B13 SE-R with over 260k, and despite it having a rebuilt salvage title from being squashed by a truck and having the usual Ohio rust, it is his daily driver. It's even still competitive in autocross. My friend Ronnie has a 1994 Maxima with well beyond 200k that we got for $400 from a very neglectful non-enthusiast over a year ago. It's been his daily driver for over a year with no issues.

From my experience with a wide variety of Nissan/Infiniti/Datsun products, if you maintain them and protect them from rust, they will last hundreds of thousands of miles and decades upon decades.
